Re: Mouse sound
That¡¯s odd I was getting the sound with a brand new relay in the other rig then I took the brand new relay and put it into the rig I just got. Could this brand new relay be the problem? interesting!

Re: Mouse sound
I don't know what's causing that sound but at slow speed, at least to my ears, the very first part is a bit like the pinging sound made by relay contacts dropping out. That might be a clue but it also

Re: Mouse sound
Great to hear the tone, mouse squeak! There is a 0.01 uF resistor off the plat (pin 5) of V17. It joins with a 330 K resistor. Pull this junction point to ground and try the test. Gary W0DVN

That's exactly how I would have played it. My R-4C has a NB because I moved it from one I sold. Steve Wedge, W1ES Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. Sent with [Proton

Re: Mouse sound
Never mind I figured out how to play it back at .25 speed. Boy I feel old! But any how what is this sound (at normal speed) caused by?

How do you play it back at .25 speed? Mark

Re: PTO makes scraping sound
Possible? I just noticed that it's not a particular spot on the dial but rather it is two pieces of metal scraping at every 100 khz of the dial. Mark

Re: DIP IC Removal?
*** The FR-301 can be had cheaply brand new on Ebay for the Japanese version. This is made to work off 100VAC, but it works just fine off 125. I have one. Somebody took one apart and found that the

Re: 42.5 and 43.6 Mhz crystals
Oh, I wasn't sure because when I looked in my TR-4CW (without RIT) it had all of them in there so I thought that was the way they came? Since I will be keeping my TR4-CW/RIT and eventually selling the

Re: PTO makes scraping sound
Could be a bent shaft. Watch the skirt as you turn the knob. If the skirt is rubbing on the panel, you¡¯ll need to use one or two 1/4¡± washers under the skirt to give it extra space. There is not

If you could record the sound, that could help. Else, I wouldn¡¯t be concerned as long as everything¡¯s working find otherwise. Steve Wedge, W1ES Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

Re: 42.5 and 43.6 Mhz crystals
This is how most TR-4C(any) came from the factory. The higher subbands were optional. If it was mine, I¡¯d just get a 28.5 -29.1. Not much around above 29. I¡¯ll look through my pile but I think

Re: DIP IC Removal?
Hakko FR-301 is a great tool for desoldering. A bit expensive up front, but over the years may pay off in ease of use and less damage. Really stubborn parts I have occasionally had to resort to the

42.5 and 43.6 Mhz crystals
In the TR-4CW/RIT that I just purchased, both the 42.5 and the 43.6 Mhz crystals are missing. Anyone know where I can get these from? Mark

PTO makes scraping sound
Just got my TR-4CW/RIT yesterday. When I turn the main tuning dial to a certain spot it sounds like two pieces of metal briefly scraping together. Mark
