Re: R-274 SX-73 meter
Do a search on eBay for Steampunk electronics and you will see several vendors selling meters and other electronics. You may find good deals on stuff they have no clue about. Dwight

Re: SX-117 noise limiter behavior
Mine is remarkably stable.? It drifts a few Hz in the first few minutes, but nothing noticeable after that.? I wasn't able to find the original diodes anywhere in the USA - there were a couple on

R-274 SX-73 meter
I'm looking for a replacement meter for the sx-73 (R-274) receiver. The receiver currently has a non-original Phaeton meter that has some sort of level set dial. The original meter looks like a

Re: SX-117 noise limiter behavior
Hi Floyd, My neighbor has an electric fence which gives regular pops when listening to 40M. The NB reduces those quite a bit, but not completely. Now that you mention it, I might try replacing the

Re: SX-117 noise limiter behavior
Hi Peter.? Nice to hear from someone who has an SX-117.? Yes, mine had a problem with one of the diodes in the circuit - it wasn't shorted, but had a resistance of around 60 ohms in each

Re: SX-117 noise limiter behavior
It seems to me that no-one has actually answered your question. I have an SX117 and the NB certainly doesn't reduce the signal to S1. It causes a very slight drop in audio on AM but almost no

Re: SX100 DC power plug question

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

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
