"Most" of those whom I asked about the oil filled cap said leave it alone if not leaking. I cannot recall what Nick England said when I asked on the Boatanchors list. I asked my ham friend who is

Donald - This was the first Hamvention in two years post-COVID shutdowns. I talked with the bus drivers (we parked remote), and they were very happy with the turn out. They said the number of vendors

Here is the bottom of my Viking II. There was prior work done in there by a VERY good tech that I am happy with. The cap replacements are excellent with quality components. I plan to do the

Brian is correct, the Invader 2000 DID have a separate power supply. Also, it was engineered so that the 200 watt Invader could be converted to an Invader 2000. The faceplate changed out and the

Though in theory they are usually OK (from what I have been told)? I would advise to look underneath and ensure that the 'bathtub' oil-filled capacitor is not leaking at the seams. Usually do not,

I had an Invader (not Invader 2000). Its power supply was 'separate' within the chassis and could be removed (slid out) for servicing or whatever.. but it WAS contained in the cabinet. The higher

As with a lot of our BA gear, the manuals don't seem to stay with the gear. So more than normal we (me) go to BAMA? Boatanchor Manuals site and download. That is where my Viking II manual came from,

If you saw the PS for the Invader at Dayton, the 500 has one equally as big. The PS for the 500 is HUGE. The Johnson Five Hundred puts out 500-600W as a transmitter. That needs some power behind it.

Dennis, I saw that one, too. I didn't know it needed an outboard supply. I guess if the supply wasn't separate, you'd need two people to lift it. Donald

I paid $150 for the Viking II with the VFO. It was the only Viking II I saw. There was a nice Johnson 500 with no power supply, a GORGEOUS Invader (and a spare one under the table!) with the PS. I saw

I picked up a Viking II with the VFO at Hamvention this weekend. [image: PXL_20220523_112954002.jpg] It is getting paired with an NC-300 that was a few spots down at the hamfest. [image:

I would get two good 6CL6 tubes to replace the 1614's. The 1614 is a 6L6 substitute not for 6CL6. The others should be OK if they test good. Larry K4LED

Hello Pete, I hope that you are well. Thank you for this reference, Yes, it will be finding the connector on the radio side. I looked at some of the mics available on ebay to see if it might work

Charlie, I see the service manual is out on repeater builder web site. A quick look shows the RS-232 chip is built into the radio, so it shows that it's a straight through cable from the RS232 to the

Hello All, Looking for a programming cable for the EF Johnson 5100 ES portables. RFGuys seems to be out of business even though their website is still running. BlueMax 49ers "temporally" out of stock.

Chris . . . I see most of the tubes match and are in the correct positions. I see differences with these tubes between the manual and what's actually in the radio: V9 & V10 are both 6CL6 in the
