I had not been into this PS as yet, but opened it up just a few moments ago. Yup... Thar she blows (no pun intended)... A wirewound flameproof just as Garey had said and with the same markings (best I can tell), so I believe it was original. Interesting. However, I fear that this owner was not so lucky and it looks like one or more of the carbon bleeder resistors have cooked. I am somewhat reluctant to look further into this... before Christmas! If the B+ cord from the power supply to the amp had not been disconnected, that resistor is going West together with one or both of the 25K ohm bleeder resistors. More than likely the diode bank on the side where the bleeder resistor blew will have to be replaced. This is spelled out in the operator's manual. You have a bit of work awaiting. -- On Behalf of Stu Greene [EMAIL PROTECTED] Submissions:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: http://www.zerobeat.net Brought to you courtesy of TLCHost.net http://www.tlchost.net/ --

[drakelist] Possible new net
Stu Greene [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterence to the drakelist gang -- Despite my call, I live in the middle of the Sonoran Desery where those fine happenings on 40 and 80 are not audible here. It seems that there just might be some interest in either moving the present Drake net or, as an alternative, having a separate net which can be heard by those of us on the Left Coast. One alternative would be to run the new net on either 15 or 20 meters. Id that net is successful I would expect some pressure to add a third net control and cover the Land of 48 Stars. As a beginning I'd suggest that we discuss a new net and if there is sufficient interest change the frequency of the present net. Some years ago I was a net control station for the entire country and South America. Due to health problems I had to drop out and when I returned the 20 meter net had vanished. I prefer not to be a net control station but I would be interested in participating in discussions on that net. Ladies and Gentlemen, please don't reply to me but send your replies and comments to the Drake list where this message is printed. My first suggestion would be to have a net control station in the middle west and another in the Southeast. If the frequency of the present Drake net would be changed, I'd like to read suggestions as to time and band.

Turn that blankity blank processor off. It sounds horrible. Just sit back and let that mellow Drake sound make everyone that hears you wonder what you know that Heil doesn't. I've been using and listening to Drake's broadcast quality signals for years and I have to agree but with one exception. Dxing requires intelligent operating, good antennas and an amplified signal which can grab the attention of the DX station. And having listened to those rotten distorted signals in quite a few rare countries, they certainly got my attention.

At 11:27 PM 5/2/2004, Graf Ulrich ICM MP PD ST 2 ULM 1 wrote: Hi, general coverage transmission with the TR-7 is not recommended since the transmitter low pass filters exhibit extreme mismatch on other frequencies than the standard amateur bands. Even for satisfying operation on the WARC bands I had to redesign most of the filters for proper reflection coefficient. I have a very early model TR-7 converted by Drake to the A model. Since the WARC bands have been opened in the 1980s, I've used the transceiver on 30, 17 and 12 meters which are not standard with this radio but which can be accessed quite easily. No redesign of the filters has ever been necessary. This was a point Drake Service itself made to me in July of 1987 when the conversion to A and the opening of the transceiver to WARC were made. -- Submissions:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - subscribe drakelist in body Unsubscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Brought to you courtesy of TLCHost.net http://www.tlchost.net/ --
[drakelist] Filters for non-ham use
Mike, there was no implication at all. I simply wrote that since WARC bands became legal (17 and 12 meters and then 30 meters) I've been using my TR7 (TR-7A) quite happily on those bands. There's nothing to resent. I bought the rig in 1979 and while I was chasing DX I worked all there was with this transceiver and some have been on the WARC bands. I asked Drake if making the alteration to transmit outside of the ham bands (160 through 10 meters) would damage the transceiver and the answer was No. And to make things really difficult I can use my L-4B, new in 1978, on the WARC bands simply by reducing the power somewhat. I have a Drake station. It's worked everything that it's heard since 1979 and the C Line did the same before that. No implication was made that your engineering is poor or that you know nothing about what you're doing. I simply contributed the truth. Drake and the transceiver get along quite well on WARC.
