None at all.....



Are you supposed to hit a 1x4 with a radio with that large a heatsink on it ??? Wouldn't a 2 > 4 watt deadkey radio be more appropriate?

It probably was. It does have a variable, does it not?

Nope, but I get a distinct vibe from "someone" when they explain it "their way"; it's like NO ONE ELSE knows how to correctly align a radio anymore. I better PAY-ATTENTION, TAP TAP TAP... & GO TO Mine-Tune, I typed "mine" for a reason..

Rabbi, I know why people think you are Mark; because you "shill" for him all the time. (undeniably)
I don't see Fine-Tune doing any tube gear.. (what's referenced in the original post..)

Anyway, to get this thread on track..
What about a "worn-out" or "failing" tube can make you sound like Donald the Duck?
Sorry, it just pre-dates my era. If the tube tests good, and has not gone "microphonic"; is it reduced gain that causes issues, some how distortion increases I'm thinking, but unsure about the technology.

It all depends on whether or not the two techs are on the same or opposite sides of the equator.

The same thing can be said about plumbers. (think about it)

I'd be happy to see other technicians demonstrating on video what they can do instead of just talking about it without showing anything.

In Time, it'll take a few years.
