Problem
Haven't had the 599 on in more than six months. Fired it up today and the main readout is scrambled. Voltage shows 0.0v despite being connected to 12v supply. I can hear static but no frequency

Re: TX-500 Battery Pack progress
That¡¯s pretty neat! The TX-500 is rated for 10w output at 13.8v dc. What is the max clean TX power you get with the pack? I am guessing a lot of the discharge curve is spent under 13.8 during TX

Hello to all. Mid-December and I finished the 18650 removable lithium cell battery for the Lab599 Discovery TX-500 transceiver. The Discovery TX-500 is an excellent transceiver, but until today it did

Re: US Service
That's interesting. I wish my HRO would allow me to return, or at least exchange the radio within the warranty period. As is, they are very strict about NOT doing that if more than 10 days have passed

Re: US Service
My radio also experienced a failure a couple of months ago with the symptom of no power out. It may or may not be relevant, but it was on the latest firmware v1.14.10 Wait time for repair service is

Re: SSB on 10m - strong feedback not heard on other bands
*RF Feedback* - get the biggest, ugliest Toroid (s) you can find and put it in your coax wrap about 6 turns - ferrite rods bundled together work too! End Feds are renown for RF on the coax!

Re: US Service
i would have thought the previous firmware, which had full power output in tune mode, would have been more problematic... that said, i have 100+ full power QSOs using the latest firmware, along with

Re: US Service
My TX-500 died recently. I had done the latest firmware update and then successfully used the radio for a while. I put the radio away for a month and then, a week or so ago, got it ready for a trip.

Re: JS8Call, FLRig, TX-500 , Digirig 1.6 - Protocol error while opening rig
This exact same problem is driving me nuts.? It works great on everything else......just not JS8Call.? It's weird that WSJT-X works like a charm, but JS8Call won't.

Re: US Service
Lou, I had my Tx-500 for about 2 months before it died. And I agree, every electronic device is subject to failure and those with failures are typically in the minority for the TX-500 or any quality

Re: US Service
Bob, Can you name a radio that has never failed someone at some time? As for me and my friends that own a TX500, we haven't had any issues with our TX500's. There has never been a perfect radio. I
