Re: TR-7A No Output
Thanks Jim! I now have switched +5V from U2301 after replacement. Still no keyed output. The hunt continues. -- Craig/W8CS Greenville, SC

Re: R-4A BFO Gremlins
Drake had an error for a short while (like one month) and fixed the schematic with a missing capacitor. From message #65666 "C188 seems to be added to the same BFO circuit in the R-4B. It decouples

Re: TR-4C problem on 40 meters FIXED
Sorry Tom, I hijacked the thread! Of course, my problem did affect all bands. Couldn't resist when I read about a solder joint problem. 73, Dieter DL5RDO Am 30.12.2024 um 14:46 schrieb Tom Smith: Why

Re: TR-4C problem on 40 meters FIXED
"The solder joint immediately behind the opening in the middle of the ceramic doesn't look good either..." You got it, Stan! That was the one! No clue how such things happen but it was pretty obvious

Re: Looking for advice on T4XB issues
Steve, Did the reset thing. The radio is working normally (I forgot that Tune mode is different than CW mode and I adjusted the gain to get the output in CW). I need to get some new DeOxit as the one

Re: R-4A BFO Gremlins
A while back, I too, had the same problem with the BFO not working. I checked each and every part in the circuit and couldn¡¯t find a thing wrong with it. My fix? I added a small value electrolytic

Re: R-4A BFO Gremlins
Many tnx reply, Steve. Mine is an 11-tube with S/N 6717B. How does it compare in age to yours? It works fine with the pull-down resistor now, before I had to wait many minutes, sometimes forever for

Re: Looking for advice on T4XB issues
As the problem emerged after removing the covers, a cursory search for things that may have moved initially makes sense. Don¡¯t toss that 12AX7 quite yet (the audiophools have made them far too

Re: Looking for advice on T4XB issues
Doing some more research on this message list, I replaced V9 with a different 12AX7 and the sidetone and CW works normally now. However, still getting no change on the gain control when trying to

Re: TR-4C problem on 40 meters FIXED
Why would this only affect 40m? It would seem to me that a PTO problem would affect all bands. Thanks and happy new year to all!

Re: R-4A BFO Gremlins
I never did figure out why. The receiver (11-tube and late s/n) is still working fine.

Re: TR7 next problem
Gary I just checked that voltage again with the band switch on 10 meters and the DC voltage at that RFC505 is 20.52 DC. Hope that helps. Jim VE1RB [email protected]> wrote:

Re: TR7 next problem
Plus 20.61 Volts DC. Or did you want RF volts? I don't have an RF probe. Jim VE1RB [email protected]> wrote:

TR-5 BPF AMP Board Oddness

Hello everyone, I am getting prepared for SKN so I decided to finally put the blue LEDs from Radio Lab Works into the T4XB. Prior to this, the twins worked fine on both SSB and CW. After replacing the

It should come off if all the screws are out. Your heatsink goop may have turned into cement. You could probably loosen it up by applying heat to the heat sink with a heat gun or hair dryer. If the

Yes I see it. That one is pretty obvious. The one I found had the cut end of a component lead in the same area that was bent over a little like it was struck by something. From convenient angles it
