SR-150 Injection Voltage
This question mainly for Walt. Finally starting on the first of two radios here and question the voltage reading for V6. The original manual only calls for 7 volts but in your instructions, Walt, you call for peaking T4 for a 30V level.
The initial reading on this rig was about 11-12 volts with my Boonton rf meter and frequencies were both dead on. So far so good. Next tested peaking T4 and could indeed get to 30V easily with a slight roll off to the correct side. Now wondering which is the level I need? Been a long time since I studied product detector theory and don't remember if the higher oscillator injection voltage was required. Can you clarify for me? TNX es 73 ... Ed, WA9GQK |

level. The 7v in the manual is rms that equals 19.8vpp

Thanks, Walt. Will go back and verify what I am measuring and it looks like this stage is working properly. Next on to the mixer xtals, etc.. Right now the radio is mute but have not started any tracing. It was rescued from a house fire where it did not get damaged directly but was in a fume environment apparently so probably needs detailed contact cleaning.. Looks deceptively clean but we know how that can go. 73 ... Ed

A majority of acceptance is not proof of correctness.
