Very true.
I worked 4 hours for Purolator and was told to leave because I could not
THROUGH the parcels fast and far enough as they came of a belt.
I was aiming for the far end of a tractor trailer box.
They refused to pay me.
I was 22, now I am 45 and if they did that to me, I would take them
That's easy!!!

Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Ptt mod on a DX-60
For DX-60 PTT I just wired my mike switch in parrell to my key
I have not modified my DX-60 for the ptt mod.
I just don't understand how I can zero beat my VFO. It is the classic DX-10,
HR-10 and VFO.
My vfo does not put out a strong spot tune.
Any thoughts out there?
BTW, thanks for your answers on antennas and stuff for the it was very clear
Kewl,
Need to read up on dipole basics.

Basic question
Why is it that my radios are 50 ohms and the impedance at the feed point at
the antenna (pure dipole) is 70 ohms.
Am I mistooken

I seem to dimly remember some thing to do with passing a magnet across
it carefully and it would clean up.
Some one with more experience please confirm my suggestion.

Hi,
I am looking for NOS to keep as a batch for my HR-10 Heath RX.
2 of 6EA8
sourced 6X4 already
6BZ6
6EA6
6BJ7
6BE8
I would love to have a few NE-2's to replace my burnt out one in my VFO
as I think it allows radiation to aid in spot operation, right now it is
very weak.
If someone wishes
Does anyone have NOS tubes or recent tubes for the HR-10 RX by heath.
Basically I think I need a 6X4 and 2 6BE8's to start with to clean
things up.
When I turn up my RF gain the frequency shifts. The RF gain is going to
ground via the cathode of the first 6BE8 in the circuit.

Brian,
Please do not attempt anything on my account, if you are sick, you are
sick. I am sure someone else will respond in kind.
The rig does work when I "hot wire" it to the blacks, however there is
another cable involved. I forgot this. It is a phasing thing.
You are in my prayers and ple
The schematic for my DX 60 shows a circuit breaker on the upper side of
the return side for the power transformer.
BTW, I had something flicker on me, and the rig died. I hard wired the
power and decided to try to run it off of a power bar. Works just fine,
but no output to my antenna relay.
I am considering doing the relay mod on my DX-60.
My main question revolves around how will the rig work at the end of the
project?
I expect I can use the PTT for going straight from standby to TX. That I
understand.
How about tuning my VFO to the correct frequency? Can I be locked in
tune
I am retiring from the list until I have read up on what I should
already know.
I am a bit embarrassed.
73 to all!!
Alan
Thank you Brian for your correction.
Of course we need to achieve resonance for the antennas of solid state rigs.
And yes they are matching networks, however they do consume power that
is wasted, especially at the end of a coax. However, they can be used at
the feed point to much better effect
I don't believe in them.
If you can't resonate your antenna, then what are you doing?
If you use a tuner, you are creating a voltage divider effect that
creates a reactive load in your shack, to ground that makes your antenna
"feed line + radiating elements".
Over the years, the importance o
Bama is requiring me to use a user name and password.
When did this change?

Thanks you David, where may I find the relay mod?

Maybe the tube is out of bias, to much screen voltage,

Maybe check things with the DMM?
Or maybe the bfo is changing, not the LO??

I am sorry, did we work out how it could be interfaces with a DX 60?
Normally there is a transformer in parallel with the output plate I
think and modulation is applied to the other side to "squish" the RF at
Audio frequencies.
Is this what you mean by output iron?

You have an interesting point here John.
I don't know if I have access to enough "STUFF" to do a job like that, I
am fairly isolated here on PEI.
It is almost better to find a Johnson Transmitter or something.
I AM going to try a 160 meter end fed Zepp to get some height and gain
off my ante
Thank you Tom.
;-)
I love been a thread seed.
You guys have all been great in helping me decide which linear to seek
out in the Heathkit cheapo line.
so, is the 220/230 the best choice to get the job done. I think from
what I am seeing here that the 200 just would not cut it.
73,
Alan
I would like to use a cheap am with my DX-60.
An SB-200-230 seems to be a Class B amp. There for it only conducts on
the positive going cycle. I don't mean to sound silly, but someone told
me I could run this in SSB Mode using AM input from my DX-60, I run 100
Watts carrier for 400 Watts peak,
21 matches
