Re: SX-28A Hum
Once the choke is removed from the chassis can you investigate if its position makes any difference. I mean is the hum the result of an induced field from something? Also, does it make any

Dang ! Could you measure a leakage between the winding of the ¡°original¡± choke and it¡¯s core ?? Happy that this ¡°mystery¡± is solved ! 73, Jacques, VE2JFE in Montreal De :

Hi Don, Yeah, there is a misprint in the TM11-874 schematic. The 180M (180K) is the value of R39 (see parts list), but there is another ¡°270M¡± in excess just below it¡­. 73, Jacques,

Hi Tom. Very clean SX-28A specimen ! Better shape than my two samples, actually¡­ And an original SX-42 (R-42) speaker ! I have the radio, but never found the matching speaker¡­ I have a PM-23

Re: SX-28A Hum
Ok folks, I found the culprit ¨C that dog gone choke! I replaced it with a 4hy one from an R390A AF deck and the hum is gone. I laid it in the chassis, insulated from the circuits and wired it in
Re: SX-28A Hum
I received a direct email from a member of this reflector asking what my comments about ground loops in an amplifier chassis had to do with the SX-28 hum discussion. Sorry, I wasn¡¯t specific

Re: SX-28A Hum
A couple of things: Its quite possible the SX-28 has some residual hum. I don't have one and little experience with them. The hum in the original complaint has not been described in level. Is it

Re: SX-28A Hum
With the switch in the ¡°out¡± position, no bass enhancement, the hum is present. With the bass set to the ¡°in¡± position, there is bass enhancement but no hum. Tom Sent: Tuesday,

Re: SX-28A Hum
Years ago, a PA system amplifier that had been donated to us for hamfest use had an annoying hum when we checked it out before its first hamfest use. Nothing I tried would ¡°fix¡± the hum. Until

I recapped my Swan 270B about 21 years ago and its been my most modern HF rig since. When I use a nice old set of headphones, there is no hum. But a modern set of high fidelity phones introduces

Jim Re:: ¡°The Bass IN/OUT thing could be attributed to the change in gain of the 1st audio amp. Figure 11, the audio filter curve, shows that the gain is 100+X higher when the bass switch is in

Jacques, I ¡°may¡± guilty of not returning caps to the same ground as original¡­¡­¡­¡­ I need to look into this. I took lots of before and after pics so I should be able to confirm

I don¡¯t know Jim, I have several other radios (too many actually¡­) of this vintage that don¡¯t have this hum. Yes I neglected to address the speaker, sorry. My bench setup uses an older

Re: SX-28A Hum
Tom and JacquesYou are overlooking an alternative, that nothing is actually wrong.? AFAIK. the radio works well but there is a noticeable hum.? Hum is subjective, if you have listened to solid state
