Exposure to low heat might work, but we tried that without any luck.  
The only solution was to stop using the junk!

[drakelist] Paint

You guys who have never seen "sticky paint" have missed an experience!  
New, it was not sticky, had a velvet "feel",
and looked really sharp.  We replaced it with the vinyl clad stuff you 
see today.

Oh well - time marches on!

[drakelist] Sticky Paint

The thought was fantastic - a velvet like, satin textured finish!  
Unfortunately, the paint was lousy, and thus was
born "sticky paint" - one of life's great lessons!

Thought I'd offer this to the group before proceeding to that other 
electronic auction househave a Drake 2C receiver, working fine, 
fair amount of corrosion on surface, under side very good, most of 
this is surface and not very bad really.  No dents or dings in 
cabinet or face plate, Ill look again at the face plate for any small 
scratches, but I dont recall any at this time.  No xtal 
calibrator...Asking $125 plus shipping...Ill take any offers in order 
they are received...can take digitals if desired as well...

was please to  see that my rig (TR-5) is apparently valuable.
 
  It seems to be as valuable as the tr-7
. To what do  you attribute this?

Thank you Stu - I designed those output filters for full coverage, and I 
resent the implication
that they are faulty.

Thanks again for your comments.

[drakelist] Aux 7 IC's

2004-05-02 Thread Mike Elliott
The Aux 7 can be bypassed by cutting one trace on the mother board, 
opening up the TR-7 for general
coverage t/r.  See archives for details.

[drakelist] TR-7 Tip

2004-02-05 Thread Mike Elliott
Much of the drift in the TR-7 is due to the dial pilot lamp heat.  It 
can be eliminated by simply removing
the lamp.  I always wanted to replace the lamp with a "super bright" 
white LED (no heat) to see if
that might be the solution - maybe you all can try it.
