Re: T4XC help
If your plate current t is pinning with the drive turned down, you may be losing your bias connection. Clean the blades of the Jones connector with DeOxIt and a Q tip. 73, Steve Wedge, W1ES/4 Time

Re: T4XC help
I am sorry but I can't remember the exact value. It is important mainly in setting the idle bias. Again you can check the current at the 15 ohm cathode resistors.? They tend to go high
By Richard Knoppow · #69878 ·
Re: T4XC help
OK, did a little further research. I have not checked it yet but the cathode current meter shunt is 2.7 ohms 1/2W. I see a replacement in a WB4HFN slide show uses three parallel 10 ohm 1/2W resistors.

T4XC help
Now that I have the AC4 rebuilt, I moved on to the T4XC. The transmitter was given to me probably 7 years ago by a now SK ham and has been stored by me since then. Probably not operated in over 10

Just make it C-75 and you're good either way. 73 -Jim NU0C "Lyndon Nerenberg (VE7TFX/VE6BBM)" <lyndon@...> wrote:

Lyndon... Now you need to change the number on the console! Or buy a TR-7...... Either way...congrats on the new rig! 73 Peter VE7PS

Re: TR7 TX Exciter Are there 2 versions?
Nice catch. Those 1/4 Watt carbon comp resistors that Drake used seen prone to that. 73 -Jim NU0C "Dave Cutts via groups.io" <g4faw@...> wrote:

Re: TR7 TX Exciter Are there 2 versions?
Yep, mine is a later one with split rear panel and green solder screen on the boards.. The component position of the Mic input resistors is slightly different. Anyway, found a cracked resistor (150k)

Re: TR7 TX Exciter Are there 2 versions?
Yes, there was to the Predriver board. The Transmit Exciter is a completely different board. Both Predriver version are covered in the service manual. 73 -Jim NU0C "Rob Sherwood" <rob@...> wrote:

Re: TR7 TX Exciter Are there 2 versions?
Well, no. That is the Predriver board, which did have a major change. The Transmit Exciter board is where the mic amp, PTT/VOX, and balanced modulator live. 73 -Jim NU0C "Doug Crompton WA3DSP"

Re: TR7 TX Exciter Are there 2 versions?
Decades ago on a mobile trip from CO to ME my TR-7 quit transmitting. I was in Ohio so Drake replaced the driver board. I think there was a significant upgrade to the replacement board. Rob, NC0B
By Rob Sherwood · #69861 ·
Re: TR7 TX Exciter Are there 2 versions?
I suspect the difference is largely cosmetic. Drake started using boards with solder mask in later years. These will have a green coloring while earlier boards are bare tinned copper. A surf of eBay
