    Ah the good old days

    My first CB antenna was a twin gutter mount that I mounted on my 72 Ford van with a Sharp 23 channel. 1975 OH ya, I wanted to say it was a Lafayette antenna...I'm so forgetful.

    Radio schematic printed on fabric

    Found 2 schematics in a small box of tubes while going through some of my late father in laws collection. I know they used to print maps and such on fabric during WW II so they would not run or wash out when getting exposed to the elements. I have never seen a schematic like that, and the...

    MaCaw PRM-1 1.8 to 60 MHZ

    This is a post from 2023 I think. This poster says he has what you're looking for. https://groups.io/g/amps/topic/power_meter/100772574

    Stalker IX

    . I think there were 2 DX versions and a US version, but I hadn't seen one like this that I can recall.

    Stalker IX

    This on the bay has me confused. The face-plate looks to be a DX model with the HI-LOW switch, yet there is no "sel call" 6 pin plug on the back as all the ones I've seen have...

    CDE HAM-II/CD44 controller

    OUTSTANDING! Thanks a bunch. I imagine a 1 watt minimum zener will be OK

    CDE HAM-II/CD44 controller

    Does any body happen to know what the 2 diodes are that are in this controller/ There are 2, D1 and D2, but the manuals only give a CDE part number. 1 is listed as a zener, and another a 100 PIV diode. That's all the info on it I can find. Thanks for any help

    Frequency Counter

    Has anyone used or owned one of these. https://www.aimtti.com/product-category/frequency-counters/aim-tf900series The specs seem good and it's Made in England (Great Britain), There just doesn't seem to be a lot of information as far as reviews for it. One guy on utube has a review, that's...

    RCI 2950 no 10.240

    1.047 V, however no 10.24 output on AM-FM. In the SSB modes I get about 8 MHz @ pin 1.

    RCI 2950 no 10.240

    I had my counter set to MHz at first, switched to kHz showed the signal frequency. That got me to looking at the data sheet a little more and I see how you got me there. I don't have a very good knowledge of what the ic does, so thanks. So with all that's going on with the 5082, it looks like...

    Actually, I have 5V at the pin5. My meter lead went goofy.

    RCI 2950 no 10.240

    So further, shouldn't pin5 of the 5082 have like 7V or so? I have nothing at this time
