Re: L4B Vernier Drive - different question
While not a Drake, But has the same effect. On my SB-220 I put those small verniers on both the Plate and Load. I'd hate to tune the amp without them. Even manually never mind "By The Numbers" Joe

Re: Replace Shure 444 Mic Cable
Oh... And these are straight cables. Coiled cords are much more expensive and harder to work with. W7RY -- Thanks and 73, Jim W7RY

Re: Replace Shure 444 Mic Cable
Any modern microphone cable will work fine. Its 2 conductor (red and blue wire) with a shield. Just like the 444 stock cable. Its also the same size. Easiest way is to by a mic cord with XLR

Replace Shure 444 Mic Cable
The rubber insulation is cracked. Would like to continue to use the mic as it still has great audio. Appreciate any recommendations on sourcing a coiled cable to match otherwise straight cable ok.

Re: T-4XC generating unwanted tuned signal in R-4C
Rob, To get a signal out on the band, you do need two things.? The PTO and XTAL oscillators need to be on, and the V3 mixer needs to be on.? You have correctly suspected these. I don't know for sure

Re: L4B vernier drive
Yes. These are the lamps? I was talking about.? The leads on the replacement lamps "might" be long enough to drop the front panel and not have to unsolder the lamps.

Re: T-4XC generating unwanted tuned signal in R-4C
No, the rig is not transmitting - no bias current shown - it is defenitely in standby/RX mode.

Re: T-4XC generating unwanted tuned signal in R-4C
Is perhaps VOX being tripped ? Is there bias current showing on the transmitter meter? Hopefully some smart people will be along soon with better questions :-) John wrote:

Hi John Thanks for thinking with me. Yes, I have another one, a Sure, but that is shortened when the PTT button is not pushed. Then no signal in SSB is generated, however when switching to AM of
