Re: Searching for AUX-7 boards¡­

Re: Plate & Load Shift Couplers
Seems to me these springs are found in knobs to fit shafts with flats. Some knobs also have a flat, the spring fits into that and against the flat on the shaft when the knob is installed. I can't

I placed it back in the original box along with the QC tag.? Date is 3/83 for info. Will store the original box and have it for my heirs.

I believe I may have one or two of these somewhere. I think with my B Line, That set came with all of the original boxes, too (and I have them stored!). Steve Wedge, W1ES/4 Time flies like an arrow.

Re: Plate & Load Shift Couplers
Bob, Yes, I am talking about the little flat spring. That must be what you are missing. Normally the coupler is so tight you have to pry it loose with a screwdriver against the PA cage. I did see on

Re: Copy of original documents
Too bad there is no purchase date on the warranty card Bob. Or am I just not seeing it? Existing data on Ron's website puts the manufacturing date between February and May 1983. Probably close enough

Re: Drake UV3
Yes Mike, I have 4 of these UV3's in different option offerings. The RF sections (boards) are hard wired in so I too only see the way for troubleshooting/part changes on those boards is dismantle,

Re: Drake UV3
Paul¡­ I have the factory service manual, but for the life of me, I find it almost impossible to get to the RF modules without gutting the entire rig. The plug in cards are easy enough, but whoa,

Re: Drake UV3
Hi Mike. No factory training here sorry. Just fixing them as needed and time permits. Typical failures are tantalum caps shorting so sorting thru that issue can get some level of progress. Are they

Well, regardless of whether or not the inserts are lead, there are basically two hunks of relatively soft metal that fit into what appears to be a nylon tube.? Although that could be a way of

Hi everyone! I said I¡¯d never work on one of these things again. EVER! But here we are¡­. The one has the 2M and the 440 bands. I had repaired the two meter part, but the 440 module looks like it

Re: Plate & Load Shift Couplers
Bob, I re-read your OP. Your rig should have the moulded couplings and I can¡¯t think of how those could fail under normal conditions. However, Drake used screwless knobs for these two controls. Make

Re: Plate & Load Shift Couplers
The early couplers were round and had a straight spring piece in them. Later ones are moulded. I¡¯m guessing you have the older type, missing the spring piece or with a piece that is no longer arced.
