Bernie, I immediately went to the AS&S store here when you first posted your question (this was around 2 or 3 months ago) and bought one. I posted a report a few days later. You somehow missed it.

Re: [AMRadio] speakers
Nope. I have seen them on the spectrum, and you only need 15 kc of rx, place carrier on one side. I have a R390A being rebuilt and expect it in about three weeks, it has a 16 kc filter and a low Z IF output that I will run to a separate sync detector/ amp. I had hopes for the SDR thing I bought, but have given up as a usefull receiver. noise floor is way to high, probably 20 DB above my 75A4 and the audio from AM still sounds " different" . Also a moderatly weak AM station is unreadable compared to my 75A2 and 75A4.I did feed a sine wave into the SDR and observed that the lower half is shifted, sort of leans and is tighter, the shocker was the appearance of ocassional steps in the sine wave, like the first computers years ago. Makes me wonder what it does to a complex waveform ( voice). by no means am I implying that I can hear 15 KC anymore. The SDR does make a great bandscope and I do not know what I would do without it now, was on a few days ago, about 10 AM, 3.700 + or - and was watching four other AM QSOs in that area, More AM than ssb " and I go on and on" Bernie - Original Message - From: "Jim Tonne" To: "Discussion of AM Radio in the Amateur Service" Sent: Friday, March 19, 2010 10:38 AM Subject: Re: [AMRadio] speakers > > Bernie: > >> there do appear to be some SW BC that >> transmit up to about 15 KC. > > I seriously doubt that!

[AMRadio] speakers
Just wondering if any one bought the 12" speakers that American Science & Surplus was selling and if so how do they sound? I found a cheap 12 " Wolverine on ebay less the $50 inc shipping and was surprised at the differance over radio shack book shelves, thats on the 75A2.wondering what a full range 15" would do? any ideas? I am not an audio nut but do appreacate nice quality AM sound. I do realize on the ham bands not likely to hear much beyond 5 or 6 kc, there do appear to be some SW BC that transmit up to about 15 KC.

Re: [AMRadio] Speakers
The West Chicago store is on my way home from work so I stopped and got one of the 12 inch speakers and took it home. N.B. I'm not an audio expert and my ears have been corrupted by decades of static crashes. With that in mind. It looks fine, brand new. I don't have anything other than a little 2 lb postal scale but it felt like it weighed around 3 pounds. I hooked it up to one of my little Heathkit EA-2 amps. This is a 12 w. 20 w. peak mono push-pull amp pair of 6BQ5s that Heath sold in the 1950s. Couldn't remember the Z of the speaker so tried it on both 4 and 8 ohms. Sounded best on 8 ohms. The EA-2 gave plenty of power to drive it. Of course this quick test was without an enclosure for it and using clip leads. I tuned in a local broadcast station on 720 with the rx on 14 KHz passband. Full range audio, but to get the low frequencies and highs it does require more oomph in those ranges compared to a cabinet with 2 or three speakers and a crossover network. Put in a good cabinet with a zip cord to a receiver that can put out 5 or 6 watts audio and it should sound pretty good. Jerry when you get yours I'll be interested in knowing if my observation squares with yours. I don't have a cabinet to put mine in so if you do have one, reading how it sounds in a cabinet will be useful too. 73 Rob K5UJ On Wed, Dec 9, 2009 at 4:39 PM, Bernie Doran wrote: > Let us know, I did order some small dc gearmotors a while back and they were > fine. these looked good to me but was afraid to say anything, someone would > squak Bernie. > - Original Message - > From: "Gerald Stockinger" > To: "AM Radio" > Sent: Wednesday, December 09, 2009 5:24 PM > Subject: [AMRadio] Speakers > > >> We will all learn in about a week.
