Re: Hayseedhamfest
I also find Dave and Just Radios a good place to buy resistors and capacitors. I've used them frequently. Bob, AF6C

Re: SX100 DC power plug question
Its safe. If you are concerned with accidental contact with the socket you can put a piece of tape across it. Or, simply unwire the socket and link the necessary wires internally. -- Richard Knoppow

Re: Hayseedhamfest
My S-38E, acquired new in 1957, was a huge improvement over one tube regens and an old Philo console that allowed me to copy CW by listening to the hisses without a BFO. I still had the S-38E when I

Richard, Yes they cared about appearance. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but to me the most beautiful is the SX-28. Bob W4JFA [email protected]> wrote:

Re: Hayseedhamfest
Thank you for the compliment (I collect them). I suppose restoring classic cars is similar, one can wind up replacing nearly all the parts and come out with what amounts to a new car that looks like

Re: SR 150
A note: Collins took the side tone out of the 32V-3 as part of de-TVI ing it. The 1 and 2 versions had it. Evidently, it was a leakage path for RF they couldn't stop. In the past I mostly monitored my

Re: Hayseedhamfest
Jim, I was looking at data sheets for the ox etc from oh mite. I can't find anything about them being non-inductive. Did I miss it? Bob W4JFA [email protected]> wrote:

Re: Hayseedhamfest
Dave @ justradios.com gives great customer service and the caps and resistors are of very good quality and reasonable priced IMHO. I have purchased hundreds of both from him over the last couple of

Re: Hayseedhamfest
Good Evening, I will second the motion for Just Radios when looking for general resistor and capacitor kits. Look at Dave¡¯s website and you will see that he even has them segregated in most used

Re: Hayseedhamfest
Greetings, I like using Ceramic Composition Resistors (OX/OY) series as they are non-inductive. ?Mouser sells Ohmite brand. As for Hayseed Hamfest, I've known Tom since he started offering cap kits

Re: Hayseedhamfest and resistor source
You can get a resistor kit on amazon that contains every value you would ever need. They are all spot on and high quality. You can get a 1w kit and a 2w kit for 10 bucks each. The new 2w are so small

Re: Hayseedhamfest
FWIW, I wasted some of my mis-spent youth working for a manufacturer of carbon and metal film resistors. Long ago. Carbon film resistors will run at red heat without damage except to the conformal

Re: Hayseedhamfest
Metal oxide film is not the same as carbon film or metal film. Any of these is superior to composition resistors. I have never found any authoritative source saying that composition resistors were

Haven't tried it yet other than for testing.? It works just fine.? I might like the "T2" adjustment process better since it's a "set and forget" method. 50W output is more than enough if the band is

Not sure if they STILL carry them, but bought BRAND NEW (not NOS) carbon composition resistors from MOUSER... Brand name began with a "K" (think it was KAMAYA)? Reasonably priced, I did 2 HRO-60s
