Gene,

The manual will be on its way shortly. I have deleted the schematic
pages from the manual. They were not clear at the resolution I used
for the rest of the document. I will send the schematics at a higher
resolution in PDF format seperately so you can read them easily.

William,
Deja vu format does NOT work for me.
Please forward it in PDF.
Many thanks for your help, I've been trying for a long time and was

starting to get frustrated. You're a lifesaver !

Gene,

Don't ask me how, but I was able to get the SX-122 file off BAMA
after much trial and effort and don't ask how I did it because I
cannot remember. Just dumb luck.

I will forward it to you in PDF format or would you prefer the

DJVU

format.

Hi William,
My name is Gene Encinas and I'm a licenced amateur in Mexico,

not

too

far away from San Diego Ca.
My call is XE2EEQ and I,m current in QRZ.
Here's my problem: I'm restoring a SX-122 and have no manual. I

have

tried the BAMA site and have not bee successful in downloading

it.

I tried downloading the deja vu viewer and cannot get anything.
A manual in PDF format that I can read with Acrobatwoul be

greatly

appreciated. Could You Help?
Thanks and '73
Gene XE2EEQ

thank you!

mike shelton of total electronics is one of those people to stay WAY away from. you get old and watch your grandchildren grow up and marry before he gets your "repaired" radio back to you, in worse shape than when you sent it, per my experience

I haven't been around the group long, so I know nothing about people
who have ripped-off members. If we can't discuss such things in that
group we're dooming new members to make the same mistakes. Isn't one
of the ideas of a group is to help each other out?

Hi Group,

de Dave, KB3EFS

Does anyone have a _PDF_ for Acrobat v _4.0_ or a very good jpeg and
written steps.

My band spread string went to dial string heaven.

Thanks.

I have the S-52 in PDF format and it does show the restringing
detail. I will forward it to you shortly.

Thanks Bill, whenever I post it's to everyone or I'd go direct.
You're ideas are interesting but it raises another question for me:
you're checking them in-circuit, not removing them, correct? And
you're using the highest range of your VOM/VTVM ?

alone, even the black beauties.



I know this is not the proper way to test for bad caps and others

probably cringe when I say I leave the black beauties

satisfactorily, I say leave them be. So, no real science here

checking capacitors. Just common sense.



Any others with capacitor check methods?

When I wrote that reply, I said to myself oops, I should have said I
test them out of circuit and with the highest range ohmmeter. BTW, I
use an old Simpson 260 to do this test in the RX 10,000 scale.

I look for a meter deflection from short circuit to a very high range
final reading. Then I reverse the leads and look for a sharp Kick of
the needle with a final reading in the same high range. Similar to a
diode test. Of course, looking for very high resistance in both
directions. It has worked over the years without failure (no pun
intended).

Forgot to mention, look down on the bottom of the page on the left hand
side. It says "The Radio Shack". I wonder if that is/was the current
day "Radio Shack"? Anyone know?

Hi Bill!

Take a look at

"Radio Shack, the giant mass market retailer, is a division of Tandy Corporation. Tandy began its life as a West Texas company that sold leather products to people who wanted to take raw leather and create their own belts, vests, and jackets. As the company prospered, it moved into other markets and eventually bought an ailing Boston electronic firm called Radio Shack. Radio Shack was running a distant third to the two giants - Allied Electronics in Chicago and Lafayette Radio on Long Island. At the time, Radio Shack had a reputation for low prices and quality that was open to debate. Under the wing of Tandy, the company now completely overshadows its old rivals. Radio Shack bought Allied a few years ago and Lafayette's efforts to build a chain of stores to compete with Radio Shack failed miserably."

Anyone with an old S-38EB, thats a "B" not an "M" they want to unload?

I recently acquired a nice SX-117 and am toying with the idea to get a nice
HA-10 "Converter" so I can receive general broadcast stations. The
description of this unit is a converter. Does anyone know if the internals
are hollow state or solid state?

Just a note to tell everyone about a product I have been using for the past
few years on the refurbishment workbench. I use it to protect the finish on
radios and also to provide a slight impact cushion.

It is: The stuff that Sears sells for inside tool box drawers to cushion
your tools. It is about 1/16" thick and comes in precut sizes and even in
6' rolls. It is soft and provides a barrier between your project and the
bench. I have been using this stuff for some time and it is great when
rotating a rig or turning it upside down. It protects the paint and when it
gets melted or torn, just throw it away.
