Re: FT-857D Dig output 9.2 Volt

 

i use one of these and find it handy. Keep in mind the current sense is in the negative side so the current reading may be in error if the power supply negative side is attached chassis ground. For example my power supply negative is connected to ground and current reads 50 percent since current also returning through ground. Reads correctly if power negative is isolatedor battery is usedas a power source.

When I see a voltage or amp drop not seen on other radios connected to the PSU I will clean the fuses for suspect rig and check for a loose Man PSU connection to my PowerPole hub.

After I do that she will keep her voltage and amp draw where I usually find it.


Re: FT-857D Dig output 9.2 Volt

 

I'm looking for the same issue I think... 50w fm on 2 I drop from 14.4 to 12 flat ...?
Iv been told that it's the power plug going into the radio ... but I have not tried to check yet or try some pro-gold iv got in the connector ...
With I had a IR monitor ... display for differential heat to try to located this voltage drop --- id think it would create some heat.

FT-857D Dig output 9.2 Volt

 

Hi all,?

I moved my setup few weeks ago.

Now, when I try to connect via winlink and using signalink usb, my rig is going from 13.8V to 9.1V? in 7093 Digital( tuning or connection ). The rest 10 or 14 Mgx

I'm using the same power supply I was using few weeks ago.? Could it be the antenna?? It's a Chameleon Vertical HF good till 350watts

Re: [bars] ARRL offering Antenna eBook 25th Edition for FREE for ARRL members.

 

I had the same experience.
Checked out at zero cost but no download or other tangible shows up, anywhere.
I bet they made a huge mistake.

When I called up ARRL I think they realized the link was in error. They probably fixed it.

I just called the ARRL. This book is not available for free. They are working on their website to fix this error.

It will let you order the book for free show it in your order history.
But you will never get it.

Re: [bars] ARRL offering Antenna eBook 25th Edition for FREE for ARRL members.

 

No, it is not. I went to the ARRL website by typing it into my browser, logged in and went shopping. I put the Antenna eBook into my shopping cart, and upon checkout it said it was free and asked if I wanted the Windows or Mac version. But I still haven't heard back from them and that was earlier this morning. I figure checkouts are being manually done and I will eventually hear from them.

Not a scam, but possibly a pricing mistake that they have now discovered.
