Re: S-85 refurbish: I've got a problem during the RF alignment of bands 1 and 2 - trimcaps don't peak!
Hi, Don, I did check the S-40A schematic and it shows all the input coils wired so that on all bands they can function as balanced input circuits unlike the S-40B and S-85 that leave terminal A2 open

Hi, Don, Oops! I lost track of who was doing what here. I have only your diagram, not the S-85 manual, but note that when the bandswitch is set to Band 1 or Band 2, antenna terminal A2 is not

This all just doesn't sound right. Did this receiver EVER work? If it did its not miswired. If it didn't how did it get through factory alignment and QC? How did it get sold in the first place? If

Emanuele, no need to reply to this, it is more for others that have an S-85. I don¡¯t blame you for being fed-up with this radio, and giving up; we all have had that feeling, but for the benefit of

Guys, one of the reasons I wants to give up with this one is the poor design in the ANT RF circuitry. I noticed the schematic diagram anomalies, both the 1&2 bands wiring error and the fancy S1A-REAR

Maynard, the arrows inside the wafers do the trick for me, together with the ¡°shown in band 4 position¡± general note. One of my first obstacles was understanding the first wafer; it was mucking
Re: Missing page S2001A
Pete - I have ordered several manual reprints via your company.? I find the product to be just as good (if not better) than an original.? The Heathkit manuals are sort of a benchmark for me and

Hi Maynard , this was my posting not the OP Emanuele¡¯s but I will convey my understanding. First off: this is one manual version or copy. Perhaps there are others that look correct.. And/or there

Another interesting thing about the diagram: The S-40B diagram has "(FRONT)" and "(REAR)" but not "(FRONT) VIEWED FROM REAR" as for the S-85. The S-40B diagram does show both clockwise and

Re: S-85 refurbish: I've got a problem during the RF alignment of bands 1 and 2 - trimcaps don't peak!
I agree that the lefthand diagram seems wrong. Note the arrows that show rotation in opposite directions to synchronize the contacts on the wafer as you view each side of the wafer. It seems to me

Emanuele and all This is from BAMA for mark 1A and 1B and makes no sense to me, so I rewired it at the right. What say you all?? Do you go with Halligans version? Don end
