Re: Drake repair service
The Tr7 is really pretty simple to troubleshoot and repair. There's a lot of people out there more than capable. it's not just two or three in the whole world.

Re: T-4XC has a "condition"
Hi guys, It¡¯s been a few weeks since we had an update. If you go back and review the thread most of the concern was with the T-4XC tune up procedure, knob left, knob right, never heard of that¡..

Re: Drake repair service
Interesting. I've never seen that configuration. Granted, I have not worked on every amp out there. But all I have seen is the single reverse biased diode. My two Alpha amps have it, and W8JI also

Re: T4XC Power Output?
Thanks Jim, I think the IFR1200S reads 150 watts, but you're right. I should get a dry dummy load for the shack. 73 gmail.com_at_groups.io_lastradioman@...> wrote:

Re: T4XC Power Output?
Be careful with that. I blew the load in my IFR 1000 with a TR7. It doesn't take long at full power. "Jay W6CJ via groups.io" <lastradioman@...> wrote: -- 73 -Jim NU0C

Re: T4XC Power Output?
I suggest going over the RF and mixer stage adjustments. I am going more by experience with a T4XB but they are not much different from the C. It is normal for the power output to be slightly lower on

Re: T4XC Power Output?
Jay I'd say all is normal or close to it other than 3550. Now was that into a 50 ohm? nonrestrictive load? Nothing to be concerned about actually no one will tell the difference on the receive end.
