Re: Connectors

 
Edited

Regarding the GX12 connectors, ?now sells a set of all of the 6 connectors so you do not have to search all over eBay and the Internet to find them.
He also sells specific sets of 2, 3 and 5, plus pre-made cables for various functions and 2 versions of headset microphones.? I found this all out AFTER I ordered the connectors on eBay and I had to buy many of one type just to get 1.

Re: Connectors

 

Hey all;

I have three sets of connectors I will send for the ONLY the cost of
mailing and handling. i.e. NOT A COMMERCIAL endeavor. Please contact
me OFF_LIST.

CW Mode, G

 

I am enjoying this rig and the manual...

I DO have one question though; I am not sure what this means in the middle of page #25, there is an "!" in item/menu "14 Vox". It reads:
" In CW mode, G may be switched on in order to transmit."

WHAT is "G" ?

TIA for an answer and VY 73 de "baab" w9ya


DIV

 

Hello. New to the group. Got my unit a couple of days ago.? Really enjoying this radio! Can someone explain what DIV is for? Thanks in advance. 73, Guillermo - HK4KM.


Re: CW Mode, G

 

Hi Bob

I guess it is just an error in the handbook. You have to turn vox on in order to transmit when pressing the morse-key.

TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List

 

Rob Sherwood just published the TX-500 receiver test data.? It is about halfway down the list between the Elecraft K2 and Collins R-390A.? Here is the link: http://www.sherweng.com/table.html

Thats not very good for a rig designed and built in 2020! ?And just 2uV sensitivity, that is like a rig made in 1950!
So for those of you who have and use it, is it deaf or are you hearing stations well enough?
I am still waiting for mine to ship from HRO.

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List

 

Hi Glen

I use my TX-500 for a few weeks now. It is not deaf :-) Compared to my KX2 I don't see a big difference in real live situations.
The TX-500 is mainly used for digi modes, some ssb and some (very rare :-( cw )

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List

 

Glen,

Mine is not deaf.? Right now my home QTH is suffering S5+ line noise.? I find that I can hear the same signals that I hear on my KX3.? Hoping to go to a nearby park this weekend to do a better comparison.? I'll report back.

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List

 

Hi Henry,

I'm just curious about which numbers are not good.?

The 2uV is without pre-amplifier and is 0.23uV when it is enabled.
This single value is comparable to FlexRadio 6400 (pretty at the top) that shows 4uV without pre-amplifier.

But to be honest, I didn't compare and study all possible values, which anyway have only a limited significance.
Just my 2cts...
