Re: [AMRadio] Collins 310 Exciter
You say red lettering on the glass. It should be black and this dial is the same as the 32V series. Did you try Howard Mills, W3HM?

All of the numbers on mine were rubbed off by someone who 'cleaned' the exciter up. *sigh* I use it, in the xtal socket of the appropriate tuning unit, for a stable VFO on my BC-610 E xmtr. tnx! 73 = Best Regards, -Geoff/W5OMR ___ AMRadio mailing list AMRadio@mailman.qth.net http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio

You say red lettering on the glass. It should be black and this dial is the same as the 32V series. Did you try Howard Mills, W3HM? Not yet... but, if I could find one, that I could scan, then I could just print out a transparency, and apply it to the inside of the glass.
Re: [AMRadio] Collins 310 Exciter
These transparencies are less than $10. Not the worth the bother to fuss about. I have the scales here by the way. would you mind emailing me on, as an attachment? I'm assuming you mean, you have the scales there, as a bitmapped image file, or even jpg would be fine. 73 = Best Regards, -Geoff/W5OMR
Re: [AMRadio] Hamvention
Dave, Can't join you at Hamvention but would like to get a bit of sage advice regarding a Collins amp I am considering buying. I am looking at a 30S-1 only a few miles from my QTH. Presently have several items from when I started in amature radio in 1961 as WN2MOX but would like to assemble over time a Collins station similar to what we used at RACES in those days. We can do it by email or I would like to call you to discuss this if you would provide me with a phone number.

Re: [AMRadio] Collins 20V-3
Neil and others, this heavy metal thing is like a disease, once you have it, you can't get rid of it! In my younger life, courtesy of the Air Force, I was a heavy transmitter technician whose task it was to maintain and service ground to ground transmitters that were tied to three bay rhombics.I am sure now that they may be resting in some landfill having been replaced by solid-state Harris units. I can't think that they were brought back to the USA from England and the Azore Island where I was stationed. I can still recall all that the blower noise in the transmitter building which housed a minimum of twenty or so RCA, Westinghouse, Marconi, Collins, etc. It was somewhat difficult to talk to another tech in the three bays where the equipment was housed. Each bay was approximately 120 feet in length. When you were at either of the three bays it seemed such a long way back to the main console. Incidentally, the 20V-3 will soon be sitting next to my Western Electric 451A-1 unit at the Collins Radio Center extension. Of course, we will keep the light on if you wish to stop by for a visit.

[AMRadio] Re: [Boatanchors] UTC S series transformers
Chuck, TNX for the reply. Eureka! You gave me the answer and it was under my nose the whole time! I also have the Radio buyers guide from 1945, and darn if the part I wanted to look up is also the one I need - utc S-34 (5 / 25 HY swinging choke @ 300 ma.) That choke was saved from a trash can at some hamfest a few years ago. And it is exactly what is called for in the power supply for putting my TBW transmitter on the air. Thanks for the push in the right direction!
