Still a max bit of 3500 is just amazing.? I think that a $1050 was a fair bid as it was unknown whether they worked or not. You had over bid me by about $200 so we were in the ball park.

That was me and it was a mistake. In my haste to increase my bid to $1050, I accidentally entered $10,050. The final price means the other person had a max bid of $3500!
I cancelled the bid and pissed off the seller in the process.
So, I also remain in search of an RV75. I imagine the others will be relisted¡

Re: R-4B AGC Issues, Part Trois
David,
I am thankful you are able, in your present condition, to communicate. ?Hear the encouragement that the LORD has given us. ?Here is eternal power:
The counsel of the LORD stands for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations. ?Psalm 33.11
For whatever was written of old was written for our learning, that we through patience, and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. ?Romans 14.5.?[The word ¡°might¡± does not confer a random variable. ?Here, might is the noun perfect tense of ¡°may.¡± ?Recall perfect tense definition as applied to grammar, expresses an action of being perfectly past or finished, often that which is just past or compete, but without a specification of time. ?Hope is the certainty of the Truth, the Word. ?Another way to accurately read this verse is, ¡°Although not being given a specific time interval, we have absolute certainty that the promises of the Almighty are sure (faithful); His providential care gives us comfort to wait upon Him for completion or deliverance with respect to the needs.¡±
God has said this once; twice have I heard this; that power belongs unto God. ?Also unto Thee, O LORD, belongs mercy; for Thou renderest [gives up; surrenders] to every man according to his work. ?Psalm 62.11-12
O LORD, Thou wilt give us peace; for Thou also has wrought?[effected; performed; produced]?all our works for us. ?Isaiah 26.12
Bless the LORD, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His Holy name. ?Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits. ?Who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercies, who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle¡¯s. ?The LORD executes righteousness and judgement for all that are oppressed. ?Psalm 103.1-6
But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that reverence Him, and His righteousness to children¡¯s children. ?Psalm 103.17
The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold; but the LORD tries the heart. ?Proverbs 17.3
In summary, this is the Word from Holy God, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.
Therefore, being justified by faith, let us have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ; through Him we have been brought by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and are proud in the hope of this glory of God. ?And not only so, but we also glory in our tribulations; knowing that tribulation perfects patience in us; and patience, experience; and experience, hope; and hope causes no one to be ashamed; because the love of God is poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given to us. ?Romans 5.1-5
Whoever believes in Me, just as the Scriptures have said, the rivers of living water shall flow from within him. ?He said this concerning the Sprit, which they who believe in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given because Jesus was not yet glorified. ?John 7.38-39
?
God has made it so, by the raw and refined materials given to us, and by the knowledge of His Creation (physical phenomena and mathematics), to glorify Him with world wide communications; He made the ionosphere. ?Rest well. ?Your work awaits, you.
Grace and peace to you on this Good Day;
73, Michael, N4KZO

Re: TR7 Getting ready to sell. But have to deal with the dastardly DR7 board again. I thought.
New Update:
I used some deoxit that I had in the bottle with a brush applicator. I was able to reach one "wiper" on the AUX Program Switch fairly easily and gave it a dip. Then worked the switch back and forth hoping to spread it out over some contacts.?
In my initial testing everything worked fine. I could operate all switches and no issues. I tested on and off for several hours. It did finally fail. And has been intermittent ever since. But I call it 100 % better.
I will try it again and see if I can reach more of the switch.?
Thanks again for the help!

Hey guys, I'm going to be doing a input coil adjustment on my L7 amp. Eimac tubes are getting very soft and I'm replacing them with RF Parts matched pair.
I've done this before and i'm very aware of safety procedures. It's been awhile.
I just want to clarify a few things before I start. Procedure (F) I take it that the plate control should also be in the centre of the band I am adjusting , this is not mentioned in procedure. Also when increasing exciter output to achieve a .400 amp. reading on the grid meter, procedure (I) is this correct because my other L7 manual said plate meter.
Lastly when tuning the plate control for dip in plate current, procedure (J) is it a greatest dip possible or just a slight dip in plate current??
Thanks for any input you can provide. Howard VE7IGA
