TR5 Help
I am waiting for a new BFO crystal for my TR7 so in the meantime I am working on my TR5. The 10 volt power supply failed when I turned it on a week or so ago. I have checked just about everything I

Re: TR-4C Problems with 28.0 and 28.5 bands
It¡¯s a possibility, so bear that in mind. If you¡¯re only off by a frequency that can be adjusted with knob-slipping or moving the fiducial, I¡¯d leave it alone. Steve Wedge, W1ES Time flies

Re: TR-4C Problems with 28.0 and 28.5 bands
Curious Steve, does baking ever make them worse.? ie if you had a xtal that was marginally off frequency are you taking a risk of making that xtal worse than it already is?? I've got a couple that

Re: TR-4C Problems with 28.0 and 28.5 bands
It¡¯s always worth a go. I get about 70% success. That fact that you¡¯re seeing something happening with them is encouraging. Steve Wedge, W1ES Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a

Re: Relay for Drake L4B
Beware, it's 17 msecs for that drake clunker to operate.? The xcvr needs a 20 msec delay....to give the mech relay in the L4B a head start.? ?I remember ordering an identical 3PDT? from I think

Re: TR4310 HF Transceiver
Jim, I didn't notice any capacitors of that brand, but will keep my eyes peeled. I did replace a few electrolytics in key positions in the normal course of business when going through the synthesiser

OK, I'll bake the two tomorrow. I think they'll taste best with chocolate icing! LOL! Dave

Re: TR4310 HF Transceiver
Very nice write-up. Congrats on finding the problems. A suggestion based on my RV75 experience, if you have any electrolytic caps branded "CAPAR" replace them on sight. They are rubbish. "atlasstuff

Re: TR-4C Problems with 28.0 and 28.5 bands
Several hours in a 350¡ãF oven. Put them on foil. Actually, that was my first idea when I tried it but one of our engineer members had a great description of the baking process and how it removes

Re: For sale Mill. spec. Relays for Sherwood boards
None of my Sherwood product kits were for the Drake transmitters, they were for the R-4C. I am not aware of any TO-5 relays in a stock Drake product. Rob, NC0B

Re: TR-4C Problems with 28.0 and 28.5 bands
Steve, for the uneducated, please describe the baking process. I assume you are rewetting the solder connections on the sides of the crystal blanks. Dave

Re: TR-4C Problems with 28.0 and 28.5 bands
Dave, it's starting to look like you have two bad crystals. Have you tried baking them? I know this thread is long, so excuse if this has already been done. Steve Wedge, W1ES Time flies like an

Re: TR-4C Problems with 28.0 and 28.5 bands
Well, I tried that, no joy. So I tried a few other things. Using my SDR to receive the Xtal oscillator I find this: 28.0 (42.5 Xtal) oscillates at 42.603 but no proper receive, warbly sound 28.5 (43.0

Re: Using the PLJ-6LED digital display with the R4C
Finally got this working well.? First, I installed a 7 pin DIN connector in place of the 4 pin Accessory connector on the rear of the R4C.? I connected the INJ jack to this connector using a piece
