Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
I didn't know that could be done as a service like that. We have a Batteries Plus but not sure if they'd do that. Thanks for the tip! Barry - N4BUQ

Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
I've seen some of those but most of them have rather larger and wider-spaced solder tabs. I'm attaching a picture of what's in my radio. I might be able to trim the tabs as it appears that may have

Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld

OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
This is the only amateur radio group of which I'm a member so I'm looking for a bit of help. Is there an appropriate group for older Kenwood hand-helds? I have a TH-28A that needs an internal lithium

Re: The Drake 2B and its Frequency Spread Limitations
Like Mike says, no crystal needed on 80. The 2B is an 80 meter receiver with a crystal controlled converter on the front end for the other bands. 80 meters should be the first position on the left of

Re: The Drake 2B and its Frequency Spread Limitations
I see the 2B receiver discussed with a 80m switch and crystal position. My 2B has neither. It also has a modified front panel that has a ¡°overlay¡± under the main frequency dial and frequency

Re: "THE cantenna unveiled!
With mine it is not a matter of overage, but of leakage. I don't think these paint cans contain oil very well. The one I have with oil has been sitting in the cake box cover drip tray for well over a

Re: Drake 7077 wiring
Greg, sorry to ask this dumb question, but I think I'm doing this wrong. So the shield is ground the white is PTT and Black is also ground. What is the red cable? I cant get anything on the meter?

Richard. In looking at your photo again, I see an unknown device up above the chassis, where the calibrator option is normally plugged in.? Looks like you might have some kind of homebrew or other
