Halcon were butchers, snip and clip shop, they went away a long time ago. The Radio Shop in Ontario, CA...the guy is "o-k" but just a repair guy, meaning he can follow a schematic, and fix things, but that's about it. There in one guy, who used to do radio work, and still does but only for a...

In THAT case, if he didn't insure it, well...I completely agree. He needed to insure it, and if he wanted to, make it mandatory that the buyer pay the shipping AND insurance charges. This is a MUST.

Tony, how is a Texas Star class AB-1 when there is no grid in a transistor?

Tony, what good would Paypal do? It is obviously shipping damage. If you file a claim with paypal due to shipping damage, or blame the guy wanting him to compensate you for shipping damage, you are the one doing the ripping off and a snake in the grass! What he needs to do is to contact the...

Temperature sensitive resistor huh? Sounds like hogwash. Although the part about it being a problem in the carrier balance circuit makes perfect sense.

I always did wonder how they determined how the grid current arrangement was set up on something like a SD1446 BJT?

FM signal booster? For what, 88-108Mhz? That is the FM broadcast band, but then you say your cell phone... If you mean a two way signal booster for cell phone coverage, there are several types available. If it is mobile use, they have repeater types that connect to the cell towers and then...

Exactly, once that small signal gain goes up, and bias is applied...fogeddabouttdet! What I don't understand, well I do, but a better way to put it is... "it doesn't make sense".. is..why leave the components on the board, like the wirewound resistor, and then the clamping diode, have it still...

You beat me to it. I actually was going to respond to this thread tonight, and you said everything I was going to for the most part and perfectly. I was going to go into the coax jumper myth crap, faking out things for a lack of proper input impedance, the crap devices used, and the one thing I...

Let's not forget old "uncle fester" on 38LSB - AKA Frank Rossio KK6FR. had his ticket revoked once, got it back, got a call sign, and then changed his call back using a vanity to his old one. Toilet humor all the way. Puts CB radio operators down, but is a piss poor ham and an over grown child.

Me thinks what he means is "the answers I got were either completely over my head. Furthermore, I have no interest in learning what your answers mean. So, what I did, is take it to a guy and while you people said it wouldn't work, he made it "work" by connecting up the two leads, (which I...

I agree with shockwave. The moment that carrier starts approaching a certain amount of downward shift on negative peaks, that transistor is going to switch off and create all kinds of mess.

I don't know... is this for real? If so, I would demand the following: 1: A large amount of financial compensation due to damages. 2: A hefty supply for life of good pills (make it vicodin, norco or percs, oxys are just way too strong and you'll just get sick) 3: A complete series of...

Reasonably.... and that is saying it nicely. Remember this is a *single ended* not "push pull" type amplifier that has the base of the transistor tied to ground, which means it is class C. Great for "swing" and making the meter dance around. That is what it was designed to do... the guy who...

Take the two leads that go to the "variable" and tie them together on the same terminal.

Anyone? Maybe I would have better luck selling everything off, then buying an older, cheap HF rig outright.

Anyone? Maybe I'll sell the stuff off, and then just buy somthing outright.

Just try a new dist of it. Try Ubuntu, the new 13.10 works excellent with most hardware right "out of the box". Try running it "live" first off of a USB drive, then if you want, partition up your drive. Heck, it will do most of it for you these days. Then, install it, and you can dual boot...

Hello, I would like to trade a brand new RCI-2950DX and Texas Star DX-500 for an HF rig. The DX-500 is the one with the Toshiba transistors. The 2950DX has the clarifier locked in, and E-chip installed, but no golden screwdriver mods, or anything else. I have everything the 2950DX came with and...
