[Drakelist] How to connect an external frequency counter to a TR-7?

2013-01-21 Thread Adrian P. van Bloois
Hi Folks,
How can I connect an external frequency counter to a TR-7?
The reason I'd like to do this is that I cannot read the normal display,
I'm blind, so I would like to connect a counter that gives the frequency
in CW.

Thanks & 73

Adrian

Re: [Drakelist] ham item for sale

2012-10-25 Thread Adrian P. van Bloois
IMHO this is a Drake list. Recently I see various NON Drake items being
offered for sale. Why not go to ebay? I think this list should be
restricted to Drake stuff only. Sell the mighty fine junk elsewhere
Please.

Hi,
Thanks guys for the great response. All very similar. :-)
It's just what I did to my Yaesu FTDX-400 in 1972. The thing got so hot
that you could fry an egg on it. Then I bought a fan, Papst, real robust
German thing. The finals were probably cooler than the rest of the rig.
BOth fan and rig are still running smoothly. :-)
Blowing the air out seems to be the key factor in this.
Thanks again,

73  Adrian

Hi,
Ever heard of the FS-4??? This information comes from the virtual Drake
mueseum at:
www.dproducts.be/drake_museum

  FS-4 synthesizer

   The new solid state Drake FS-4 Synthesizer opens the door to a new
   world of continuous-tuning short wave. Combines synthesized general
   coverage flexibility with the selectivity, stability, frequency readout
   and reliability of the DRAKE R-4C or SPR-4 Receivers.


   bullet Interfaces with all R-4 series receivers and T-4X series
   transmitters.(R-4, R-4A, R-4B, R-4C. SPR-4, T-4, T-4X, T-4XB and
   T-4XC), without modification

   bullet MHz range IS set on FS-4. With kHz readout taken from receiver
   dial

   bullet Complete general coverage-no range crystals to buy.

   bullet T-4/T-4X series transmitters transceiver on any FS-4 frequency,
   when used with R-4 series receivers

   bullet Readout 1 kHz with Drake PTO.


   bullet Continuous coverage 1,5 MHz through 30 MHz

 SPR-4/FS-4 :

   bullet All solid state

   bullet Built-In L,/C Filter for selectivity on am, cw, usb and lsb

   bullet Versatile combination Includes low frequency Marine and
   Broadcast band.

   bullet Continuous coverage 150 kHz-30 MHz

   bullet For use with SPR-4. order Interface Kit Mode1523

Note from Ramon Klein :

   Hello,
   I was visiting the museum and noted that the FS-4 information didn't
   mention that it can be used on the 2-C receiver as well. The only
   changes required for the FS-4 to work with the SPR-4, 2-C and R-4
   receivers is the crystal in the FS-4.
   R-4 and T-4X9.6Mhz crystal
   SPR-4   9.59   Mhz crystal
   2-C   9.5Mhz crystal  and add 7 Mhz. to FS-4
   readout for proper frequency.

   Thanks Ramon !
