Re: So Why Do Those TR-4C Can Caps Fail?
My SN 27844 has a 250VDC can cap, too. Guess that was OEM off the assembly line for TR-4¡¯s. Never noticed the modest 250 VDC rating on the cap nor pondered its significance. My purchased new in

The TR4 in my possession, sn 27xxx, has a Mallory can and it says 250 volts.

Re: So Why Do Those TR-4C Can Caps Fail?
Finding authoritative information on electrolytic caps is difficult. At least one respected handbook I have says that because the dielectric is formed by the voltage across the cap that electrolytics

Re: So Why Do Those TR-4C Can Caps Fail?
The first paragraph, I left off that the other sets I have purchased already had had their can caps replaced with Hayseed parts. This latest TR-4C didn't get to catastrophic failure but it was about a

So Why Do Those TR-4C Can Caps Fail?
For some reason, I was noticing that I have either replaced bad can caps in all versions of the TR-4C (including Cw, with and without RIT). I have a pretty good idea now why this has been happening

Re: 4 line filter impedance
I don¡¯t know about the balanced TR-3 filters, but the unbalanced TR-4 filters are 120 ohms. R-4C plug-in filters are 50 ohms. I believe T-4XC filters are 500 ohms. Rob, NC0B

4 line filter impedance
Hi All, I was wondering if anyone knows the impedance of the IF filters used in the 4 line transmitters and receivers??? A search of this group seems to indicate the TR-4 has 2,000 ohm impedance

Re: Very Nice anp on QTH.com
A pair of 8122 should be easily capable of a kilowatt+ on VHF. Probably grid-driven which means low drive. 8122s are not hard to find. With careful shopping you can pick up good used tubes or NOS on

Re: TR-7 mode switch
OK Gang, I think I got it I think it's the PBT switch. when I operate the switch sometimes the controls will start acting normal. I am going to work on the controls some more. This TR-7 was a flea

OR try turning OFF PBT. If the radio PBT is on, the mode selector switch will have no impact on received signal. Gary W0DVN

I don¡¯t have a fix but just to clarify it must be transmitting in the mode you have selected? Dan K9DTC Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2024 9:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [DRAKE-RADIO]

Re: TR-7 mode switch
That sounds reasonable to me, thanks? so how do i fix it. The TR-7 manual says (I think) that the filter trims off the unwanted sideband. This is what the trim pots are for . To set the pass band?

Re: TR-7 mode switch
If you are on 40 meters listening to lsb and you flip mode switch to usb the sig does not change flip to cw no effect. The only position that makes a difference is AM.
