Re: Speaker?
I'd say that it all depends on how you're using the rig.? If your Drake stuff falls into the "Shelf Queen" category, then the stock MS-4 is the way to go.? My C-line is in daily use along with my

Re: TR7 Audio
I've seen instruction manuals where you adjust the AF gain to a 'comfortable' level and use the RF gain as a volume knob. I learned to operate this way in my early days and, as I understand, it helps

Re: Small lamp reference for Drake L7

Re: TR7 Audio
In the commercial 2-way radio business this was a feature, not a bug. Kept the dispatcher from turning the volume all the way down either accidentally or on purpose. "Gary Follett via groups.io"

BTW, the one with the long shaft is for balancing the carrier, along with the 10-turn pot. These three adjustments are in the same patch of real estate. Steve Wedge, W1ES Time flies like an arrow.

Re: T-4XC Sideband adjustments?
Carrier oscillator is on freq. Sorry but I still dont know where C-6 is. Is it the big silver looking thing with a slot for a screw driver or the taller looking thing against the back of the chassis

Re: T-4XC Sideband adjustments?
Check that your carrier oscillator is at 5645 kHz. C6 is the ceramic trimmer on top of the chassis, right-rear corner area. If your CO is on-frequency, you could have a bad filter. Rare, but it

T-4XC Sideband adjustments?
