Ken, I'm not sure how the 2B mutes or what contacts the Dow Key relay has, but you might be interested in how I have run break-in CW with numerous vintage receivers since the fifties. I use a SPDT

I'm looking for a TR-4 sideband filter and selector switch.? There's a type that was supplied in the mid-production TR-4s that does not protrude through the chassis.? Some are blue some are

You can buy a set of fiber washers on Amazon. All sizes and they come in handy. I put a touch of cement down to hold those washers in place during assembly. I have the little red indicator light pins

I wanted to get the excess heat and unnecessary power draw on the transformer out of my L7 power supply so I decided to remove the wasteful ALC voltage divider network as I don’t use the ALC

Hello: Can anyone tell me the best way to touch up a Drake T4XB metal top cover? I'm wondering how hard it is to get a new cover instead... Thanks Scott N1IA

I used a 2B as a novice, along with a Eico 720. My Dow key relay had external contacts that handled muting the 2B Easy peasy! 73 Ronnie

Ken, Like others have said, just ground the 2B Antenna input to chassis ground with a DPDT or set of relay contacts during transmit and the 2B will also serve as a great CW sidetone monitor while your

Ken, The Dow-Key relay will mute the 2B receiver and disconnect the "ANT" from the receiver to the transmitter in transmit. You need to ensure the Dow-Key relay actually switches the ANT SO-239

Wish I could afford that!!!

From a historical perspective, the issue of muting the 2 B existed when it was made back in the 50's. So, whatever was used then (generally the relay method ) was effective and caused no damage to the

Your 2B will be fine if you just mute the RX by grounding it during transmit with a pole of a DPDT relay. I use my 2B with a Viking Navigator in just this way for many years. John K5MO

These old tube front ends are pretty hardy. I used to run a Kenwood R599 with a MOSFET front end amp that was constantly getting vaporized by second ham at same QTH. But the 2B's 6BZ6 front end can

My first rig was a Heathkit HX-10 Marauder with a Drake 2-B and a Dow Key relay. I'm pretty sure that the 2-B got muted from the TX rcvr-mute out of the accessory jack. Just a relay that opens the

I'd of course be interested.However it depends upon price. Are you in Switzerland?Shipping to the USA would be somewhat costly. Doug/WA1TUT

I'm planning on using a 2B receiver as part of a vintage station along with a DX-20 transmitter (50W input). I have a Dow-Key coax relay which has auxillary contacts. If I use those contacts to mute
