[AMRadio] Want to Borrow Original Elmac Manuals
Hi All, Bob W9RAN has agreed to send me his original manuals for the Elmac AF-67 and AF-68. I am looking for someone or someones that have original manuals for the PMR xx and any other Elmac manuals that I may borrow to scan. I will be happy to pay postage each way and will also send the contributor or contributors a cd with all the manuals on it. My intention is to get decent scans unlike the DJvue ones currently on BAMA. No offense meant to the person that scanned them or to the DJvue format. I am mainly interested in the matching receivers for the AF-67 and AF-68 and power supplies. However if there are other Elmac manuals please let me know. I will also print a dozen of each and send to Mike N8ECR who runs the Mighty Elmac Net so he will have some on hand to give out. I will also be happy to email copies of the manuals to anyone who wishes to add them to their website. Thanks in advance! 73 Larry WA9VRH __ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/amradio@mailman.qth.net/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Post: AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to amradio-requ...@mailman.qth.net with the word unsubscribe in the message body.

Wednesday May 5th, 2010 on 3880 kcs at 7:00 PM local East Coast time marks the start of the latest chapter of First Wednesday AM Night, drawing hundreds of vintage stations from across the country. SPECIAL COMMENT! Since band conditions have been rather unique this Fall and Winter I would ask that if one of our anchor stations is having trouble contacting stations in his area PLEASE step up to the plate and offer to help out. It does not matter where you are or how much power you are running please lend a hand. Mike who runs the Mighty Elmac net on the other Wednsday nights of the month has been doing that and he has been working stations all over the country. This is about AM activity not necessarly Collins AM activity. Please pitch in and help! Thanks! Larry WA9VRH AM Night Coordinator The East Coast and Central sections run for 90 minutes in response to the tremendous participation in those time zones. The remaining time zones will be an hour. We encourage stations to check-in on AM using Collins and other AM transmitters, new and old. It's an opportunity to revel in this nostalgic mode, enjoy giving vintage equipment a run, and sharing some storytelling about classic vacuum tube homebrew and commercial designs. Typically more than a hundred stations take part in the evening's coast-to-coast AM event; by the time it concludes at 10:00 PM Local PST. LISTEN for the following anchors and stop by to say hello, won't you?

Re: [AMRadio] Request for Most Common Capacitor Values to be Reproduced
Hi Todd and All, Instead of re-inventing the wheel why don't we use one of our own who is already in the business? I refer to Tom N0JMY at Hayseed Hamfest. The name does NOT reflect the quality of his products. He is building custom electrolytics but certainly could come up with a list of common caps. Tom's a good guy with many satisified customers. I believe we should try to keep this kind of products from within if possible. 73 Lary WA9VRH - Original Message - From: Todd, KA1KAQ ka1...@gmail.com To: Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service amradio@mailman.qth.net; milsurplus milsurp...@mailman.qth.net; Boatanchors boatanch...@mailman.qth.net; National Radio Equipment natio...@mailman.qth.net; Hallicrafters Reflector hallicraft...@mailman.qth.net Sent: Monday, May 03, 2010 5:31 PM Subject: [AMRadio] Request for Most Common Capacitor Values to be Reproduced Sorry for the multiple list posting, but time is short and max input is desired. Got a call from a friend this afternoon who is talking with a capacitor manufacturer about producing some caps for the radio, guitar amp, and audio crowd. We've talked about this in the past but never got to it. Now it looks like it will happen. The question is, what values would be the most handy to have supplied into the future for restoring old gear? Obviously we can't do a lot of oddball values as we're mainly looking for values that will sell well and be attractive from a production prospective. The few that popped to mind for me were: .1, .01, and .47 mfd at both 400 and 600 vdc. I also specified axial lead instead of the radial leads found on Orange drops since axial leads are better suited to our needs. I'm looking for other values that are likely to be encountered often enough to warrant production. Maybe 6-12 different values to choose from. These would be caps used for bypassing and such, not filtering. I suspect we could get them 'banded' for the foil side as well if folks feel that is important enough. The meeting is set for tomorrow, so timely input is critical. We're *not* looking for a list of manufacturers who already make caps as we believe more is better in this case. Some values are already getting difficult to find.

Re: [AMRadio] Low PWR FM Broadcaster
Hi Lee and all, I have a 900MHZ set of cordless headphones that I put the transmitter in the attic. Feed audio from the CCA Sunday net, DX-60 Net, CCA First Wednesday net, Mighty Elmac net, NASCAR races and other things to it. We live on 6 acres and it does a pretty good job covering most of it. May need to move the transmitter up higher on the tower from the attic but may look into a killowatt amp for the 900 MHZ. Just kidding on the KW but moving the transmitter higher would really help.

That is why volunteer hams have been used for decades to provide communication via ham radio at or near these agencies. Amateur radio has served the public VERY well for decades in emergency communications, and has always been on a volunteer basis. Why does this need changing now?? Are hams allowed to conduct drills on the police or fire bands? Not that I'm aware of. Why do the public service agencies need our ham frequencies now? If we allow people to be paid money for operating ham radio, we are losing the very threads the founding fathers of amateur radio and the ARRL stood for. What will be next? Dollars for working contests?

This is a compact 80-10 plus 6, AM/CW tube transceiver. They are both complete and one powers up and receives pretty good. Haven't tried to transmit with it. All needs a good cleaning inside and out. Faceplates are in pretty good shape, cabinets need paint. Power supply is heavy so shipping all won't be cheap. Best offer over $200 plus shipping.

Re: [AMRadio] I need som advice
Hi Jim, Go to Google and do a search on speaker reconing. A whole bunch of places come up. Just a suggestion. 73 Larry WA9VRH - Original Message - From: Jim Wilhite w...@brightok.net To: AM Radio Discussion List amradio@mailman.qth.net Sent: Monday, October 19, 2009 4:46 PM Subject: [AMRadio] I need som advice Boy my ears are pinned back on this one. I need a 10 inch speaker for my old HQ 129 speaker. The cone in the present one is just about gone. So I thought about shellac and toilet paper or something similar, but am not that good with my hands. So I looked a couple of places on the web. I haven't looked for a speaker since about 1959, and needless to say, one like I would like to have is nearly $100. Now am I crazy or is this high? All I would like to have is a round, mid-range speaker that is 10 inches in diameter which won't require I sell my home to buy. Can any one steer me to a place other than what I find on the search engines. The first 10 pages or so is all full of speaker sellers who pay to be listed and list only stuff the audio nut would buy.

Re: [AMRadio] FTP Program
Hi Jim and all, If you have anything you need to upload to BAMA please let me know as I will be happy to do it if you have problems. I have scanned a bunch of stuff and uploaded and will be happy to help anyone out. I ask that you email me in advance that you are going to send a file and would appreciate knowing the size of the file. 73 Larry WA9VRH - Original Message - From: Jim Wilhite w...@brightok.net To: Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service amradio@mailman.qth.net Sent: Tuesday, July 07, 2009 2:13 PM Subject: Re: [AMRadio] FTP Program Hi Jim Tonne and gang, I used Smart FTP for years and when I bought a new computer recently, I noticed that they wanted to charge for the program. I can't afford on my budget to pay for a program that I will not use much and I don't maintain a web page so there is no need to purchase one for my limited purposes. So I downloaded FileZilla which I found to be easy to use and quite a nice program. I tried to upload the manual to BAMA but could never connect to the upload folder. Ken explained the FileZilla along with several other FTP programs have a tendency to worm around in an FTP server by establishing two connections and because many people try to download the entire BAMA site, SBC has prohibited it along with several other FTP programs. Clay mentioned the resident FTP part of DOS and I must confess there are so many commands in DOS that I have forgotten that I probably would die before relearning how to use it. So now I have confessed. As for Netscape-Firefox and other browsers, I have used them before but never have liked them The last time I used Firefox it locked my computer and it took a while to get it going again. So I am stuck with IE which I do fine using, and, thankfully, there are people like Jim//WB2FCN who will help a poor boy. So if you guys want to upload or download using the SBC site, be sure to read the directions. Ken mentions several things about FTP programs and the use of Windows Explorer that you should know. Ken and the host (SBC) is very kind to provide this service to us and I want to publically thank him and them. Believe me having a public and popular site like BAMA is a headache for which, they aren't paid. I scanned and sent my manual because some guys said the quality of the current one wasn't good. So if you have manuals that fit Ken's requirements, his is most accommodating and great to work with on this project. He is also a great AM person too. Thanks to all for their suggestions and help. 73 Jim/W5JO - Original Message - I use FileZilla 3.2.6.1 ( i.e., current version) and am very pleased with it. Quite capable, free, easy to use. I agree that getting all the Is dotted and the Ts crossed in the initial setup of an FTP program is the most difficult part. - Jim Tonne __ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/amradio@mailman.qth.net/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Post: AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to amradio-requ...@mailman.qth.net with the word unsubscribe in the message body.

I wonder how many will not be there next year for me to see.Any of you jerks ever thought of that??? Bill N4BKT I am sorry for our fellow hams that are a sorry sort.

There is also no moving the Motorhome once its there, they put them in pretty tight. I think they want you there Thursday night and out by Sunday. There is normally 10-12 Vendors and/or Hamvention staff who stay there. If you are interested send me an email, and I can get you in contact with the Hamvention person responsible for that lot. It will be very very hard to get a motorhome in and out of the fleamarket. Plus there is no access to your booths after hours, the flea-market is locked down, gates closed, and guards posted.

Re: [AMRadio] The Great Rochester Hamfest
Hi All, Well you better kiss and make up or the Great Rochester Hamfest will probably be gone in a couple of years. Before you shoot me let me explain. For more years than I will put in print (in case my wife sees this) I was the chairman for the Peoria Il Superfest. For years we were on our own date. Then something happened and Radio Expo in Chicago ended up on the same weekend. We were locked into our weekend as a few years eariler the fairgrounds moved us without telling us. Well we threw a fit and they agreed NEVER to change our date again. (which they have lived up to) So for a number of years we butted heads with R.E. However even though Peoria is much smaller in population we still maintained most of our attendance. R.E. did ok also but we both had issues with dealers that wanted to be at both but did not have enough staff to do both. Well finally last year or the year before R.E. changed facilities and we are on different dates. We in Peoria have seen a growth in attendance even though hamfests in general are shrinking. We believe that both RE and Peoria will continue to prosper without the conflict of the same dates. So GUYS and GALS knock off the BS and kiss and make up before the Great Rochester hamfest becomes nothing more than memories! Neither of you will win in this pissing contest (technical term) You will tear friendships apart, you will make dealers make choices that they don't want to make (and they may not show up at either show) NO one is going to win. ESPECIALLY when you are in the same town! I hope for ALL you can straighten this out as we do not need another hamfest to go SK! 73 Larry WA9VRH - Original Message - From: Bruce bsugarb...@core.com To: Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service amradio@mailman.qth.net Sent: Saturday, January 24, 2009 4:38 PM Subject: [AMRadio] The Great Rochester Hamfest Hello, I looked at both sites, and here is what I noticed: The New Rochester Hamfest is being put on by the Rochester Amateur Radio Association. The New Rochester Hamfest is recognized by the ARRL, listed by the ARRL as the only Rochester Hamfest on that date, and is the site of the ARRL Atlantic Division Convention. The Original Rochester Hamfest site is displaying 2008 information, with the notation that 2009 information will be given when it is Available. The Original Hamfest is on Friday and Saturday. The New Hamfest is on Saturday only. So, you could go to the Original Hamfest on Friday, and the New Hamfest on Saturday. A little history: The Rochester Hamfest was the largest hamfest in the eastern US. Before last year's Hamfest, a large part of the original fairground location was sold, and the formerly giant flea market was relocated into a much smaller space. Attendance was poor, and many hams thought that the Rochester Hamfest was finished. The move to a new location with space for a another giant flea market is a wonderful thing. Now we can once again look forward to more great Rochester Hamfests. 73, Bruce WA8TNC W2INR wrote: Well the story was not fully presented. There are now 2 Hamfests on the same day in two different locations in Rochester NY.

Once you got the knack it was easy. The holes in the chassis are there for a reason. Hi Carl! Are you referring to the holes in the TOP of the chassis for the high-end adjustments, or holes in tha back of the coil rack, under chassis, for the low-end adjustments? Neither of my HROs (a 2.5V heater 1935 model, and HR0-7R) have the latter, so the coil racks need to be removed for the bottom-end-of-range adjustments. I do understand certain models had them, but mine don't :( I'd like to learn more about this process at some point. I know you have some experience with the older HROs Larry, and Carl worked for National for a number of years, so he probably spits pinwheel dials. I figure between the two of you, I should be able to figure it out. The rig in question is a '47 HRO C utilizing the HRO 5RA1 receiver. I'm trying to put together a set of the 'bright faced' coils, or maybe just find the aluminum plates for the coils that came with the set (currently a mishmash of types). The thing was pretty numb initially. Tweaking a few of the coils ever-so-slightly helped, but there's a specific order to follow and I know I didn't do this (having no clue what the order is). All things being equal (good tubes, proper IF alignment), what is the best way to align the coils? ~ Todd, KA1KAQ __ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body. __ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.

Re: [AMRadio] Frequency Question
Hi Ellen, Guess I would think a screwdriver on the roof would be un-noticeable to most but then your landlord has to deal with all the people. Tough spot you are in. I remember when I bought my first house in Peoria. I put up my 40 foot self supporting tower and didn't put antenna's on it. Had two people complain that I was messing up their TV reception. I asked them to come to the back yard and see this was only a tower. Then three weeks later I put the TA-33, 5 element 6m beam and a 2 meter vertical on top. The feed lines were tucked up under the deck and never got close to the inside of the house. Again a couple of people complained about my station interfering with their TV. Once again I invited them to the back yard to see the cables were not inside the house and there we no connectors on them. A few weeks later I ran the cables in the house and put connectors on and operated for probably 16 years before we moved with no complaints. We moved to the country and when I put up my new 55 foot crank up tower I did the exact same process. 15 years later I still have not had a complaint except from my wife when I wipe out the satellite TV. :) Good luck on your antenna project. 73 Larry WA9VRH - Original Message - From: Ellen Rugowski [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service amradio@mailman.qth.net Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2007 8:03 PM Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Frequency Question Hi Larry, Actually I live on the 2nd floor, but my antenna is basically on the the 3rd floor level (the building only has 2 floors).

[AMRadio] First Wednesday CCA AM Night June 6th!
FIRST WEDNESDAY AM NIGHT!!! Sponsored by the Collins Collectors Association. Wednesday June 6th 2007 on 3880 kcs at 7:00 PM local East Coast time marks the start of the latest chapter of First Wednesday AM Night, drawing hundreds of vintage stations from across the country. The event is anchored by a tall ship AM station in each time zone. The East Coast and Central sections run for 90 minutes in response to the tremendous participation in those time zones. The remaining time zones will be an hour. We encourage stations to check-in on AM using Collins and other AM transmitters, new and old. It's an opportunity to revel in this nostalgic mode, enjoy giving vintage equipment a run, and sharing some storytelling about classic vacuum tube homebrew and commercial designs. Typically more than a hundred stations take part in the evening's coast-to-coast AM event; by the time it concludes at 10:00 PM Local PST.

Re: [AMRadio] News from Dayton
Hi John and all, I have been going to Dayton for a long time and I know probably a lot fewer years than a lot of you. However Dayton is Dayton and I would hate to be in charge. I and one of the guys that has gone with me for years used to be in charge of the Peoria Hamfest. Maybe 5000 folks plus or minus however many for years. I try to not get my shorts in a bunch when the group is slow on getting things out. I can't imaging the mess that it must be having experienced the conflicts we had at Peoria. The four of us don't go to Dayton to make money we go for fun. We have two flea market spaces and we bring stuff to sell but we go for fun. Two of the people with us are not hams but have been long time friends. They are into pc stuff. We go and enjoy the company of the flea people that are around us. We also enjoy seeing people that we only see in person once a year. Sadly some years we are not able to see some of the people that we have seen for years because they are no longer with us. For me Dayton is for seeing friends and acquaintances that I only get to see once or so a year. We have endured the outhouses in the flea market and them outside of the flea market. We have endured the temp trailer outhouse that sprung a leak and barfed nasty liquid through the flea market. We have endured the snow and torrential rains and everthing in between. I if gas goes to $4.00 a gallon I understand why many will not show up. We will do our best because we go to Dayton for fun and we get to see friends.

I know at times there is a fine line between wars and politics, but anytime a solder is wounded or killed fighting for we the people of this country, and by orders from his commander it saddens me deeply, but at the same time makes me proud we have such brave men and women in this country that would give their life for our freedom. Freedom is not a political thing, it is the only way we should all exist ...black, white, yellow, purple, red, and others. That's what my parents taught me, and that's what I believe. I also know that a lot of useless wars have been fought all over this planet for thousands of years, but I will never blame those who actually fought, as a lot of them did what they were told to do. Pure and simple. That's all I'm going to say, otherwise I will start getting political, and I would have to kick myself off this list. With all this, lets get back to AM Radio on the reflector!

Re: [AMRadio] Phone band expansion
Hi Dave, I think you need to check your antenna ??? I hear lot's of AM activity on 75m (I have to admit I am not on 40m much) Saturday morning The Midwest Classic Radio Net on 3885 run by Rob WA9ZTY is on for 2-3 three hours at least. Sunday morning The DX-60 net goes on for a number of hours on 3880 run by Mike N8ECR Wednesday evenings on the First Wednesday of every month on 3880 The Collins Collectors Association runs their AM Night for 5-6 hours. On all the other Wednesdays Mike N8ECR runs the Mighty Elmac net that runs for three plus hours On every Tuesday evening the SAMRC run by Andy WA4KCY and Sam KF4TXQ run a swap net that I can even checkin to from Central Illinois goes on for a number of hours. Plus in the mornings 3885, 3880 and others are busy with AM QSO's until mid morning. Plunk dow a couple of bucks an but an issue of Electric Radio and not only see some great articles but also get a listing of all the AM nets, swaps and rag chews that go on across this great nation ON AM!

Hi Philip, I have a scanned manual of the 300J however it is missing two pages of the schematic. I also have a scanned manual of the 21E-21M which is the 5KW and 10KW version that uses the 300J as an exciter. I believe the schematic in the 21E-21M manual will give you enough information to work on your 300J. Please send me your address and I will burn a CD with the manuals on it.

Re: [AMRadio] FS: restored Gonset G-76
Hi Guys, I have been following this thread and I also agree with Charlie. My G76 gets great audio reports as it is. I am using a D-104 and have very good audio reports. I am currently listening to a group on the East Coast using a a 5 Motorola Micor speaker and it sounds great. Power out is around 70 - 75 watts into a sloper. I use it to check into the Midwest Classic Radio net on Saturday morning on 3885, the DX-60 net on Sunday morning on 3880, on Tuesday the Southeast AM Radio net on 3885, and the First Wednesday CCA AM net on 3880. Believe me if it sounded BAD I would get chastized on the CCA net since I am the coordinator of the event. (defense if needed) My 32V-3 is under going major surgery and some day when I am retired it will get finished. We encourage the use of anything on the CCA net that runs AM and I am living proof that we abide by that. Anyone out there using a G-76 mobile? I have the mobile supply and would like to give it a try. 73 Larry WA9VRH On Thursday, February 9, 2006, at 06:44 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jim: I agree with all of your comments as my G76 works well as is.
