Re: [Drakelist] Noise Limiter in Drake 2B
John The 2b noise limiter is not a noise blanker as we use to define. It is a simple circuit that works along with the diode detector. It is effective on AM (product detector must be off) for ingnition noise or eletric fence sparks , for instance. In my opinion the Drake 2B is a receiver ahead of its time. If you have a good one , keep it. Regards Fred PY2XB On Thu, 23 Jul 2009 09:15:22 -0400, Paul Gerhardt phgerha...@gmail.com wrote: John Hope you are having fun with the 2B. My first one was used from Harrison Radio in NYC. They had a stack of them in stock in '63 or so. Sold it about '69 or so and purchased one from eBay about two years ago.

Try it on 10-15 meters when cars are going by nearby and see if you notice a difference. BTW I reccomend Tom http://www.hayseedhamfest.com/ for the re-cap kit as my 2B needed it.

The replacement works well, but I am trying to determine how effective the NOISE LIMITER should be. I notice no difference in normal band static noise when I switch the Noise Limiter into the circuit. I would like your comments based on actual experience with a Drake 2B with a NOISE LIMITER. My experience with numerous Vintage Hammarlund, Hallicrafters, National and other brand receivers with a noise limiter has been that it is next to ineffective on noise and if the limiting is turned up on an adjustable noise limiter, it degrades gain and audio to the extent that listening to the noise is a better choice. Is that the same performance that I should expect on the Drake 2B noise limiter? Maybe I should look into noise BLANKERS for all my Drakes if that is the case. I know they are not common, but I seem to remember someone developing a blanker circuit for the Drake 4 Line. Anyone have info about that? 73, John, K5PGW -- Paul Gerhardt K3PG http://pgerhardt.blogspot.com QRP ARCI 6674 FP 274 ___ Drakelist mailing list Drakelist@zerobeat.net http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist

[Drakelist] Drake 2-B S-Meter Calibration/AVC
Hello. Merry Xmas to all of you. Still need some help on my 2-B that still on the bench. I have calibrated the S-Meter using the manual instructions. The radio was turned on for a long time BTW. The process was straightforward. Too bad that even a 15Mohm voltmeter shunts the AVC line. The manuals procedure takes this in account. Later I realized that when I turned the radio on again, the S-meter did not go to S1 right away. This is what happens: When I turn on the 2-B, the S-meter goes to around S9+10 and then goes down to S8. Then it starts a process that takes around 10 minutes until it goes to S1 (to the calibrated position). I have verified the whole AVC circuit (resistors and capacitors). The AVC is working apparently well. It acts, as it should. I have also replaced the 6BF6 (AVC amplifier). Nothing changes this behavior. I also realized that there is a slight change on the S meter S1 when the AVC is set from fast to slow (or vice versa). On Slow the S meter goes closer to S2. When the resting process is happening, I tried to monitor the AVC2 voltage with the VTVM or with an oscilloscope, but the measurement instruments load difficult the task and even changes the S-meter position. I do not think it has to do with heat because sometimes I turn the receiver off for few minutes and turn it on and all happens once again. I am wondering if someone have experimented that and/or has any tip. Thanks and regards Fred ___ Drakelist mailing list Drakelist@zerobeat.net http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist

If you have some cold spray, you might try a short blast in specific areas to see if there is a dramatic change. As for what may be the root cause, I would check for evidence of a carrier bleed-through or spurious signal or a possible weak oscillation that is getting through the IF chain and getting rectified by the AVC detector (in other words, masquerading as a real signal).

Re: [Drakelist] amplifier
Hello If your coax connection in/out amplifier is ok, you probably need to clean the antenna relay contacts in the amplifier. Once done, allow few hours of stand-by position (tubes with filament on) to apply power to it. Regards Fred PY2XB Most likely a stupid question but I have never in my 20+ years in the hobby used an amplifier on the HF bands (nor above 30 mhz for that matter). A recent silent key estate was put up for sale. It is a Kenwood TS-530SP and a Heathkit SB-201 amplifier. The station is completely assembled. When I turned the Kenwood transceiver on and left the amp off I heard nothing. I bypassed the amp and suddenly the Kenwood was working just as it should. Lots of signals on 40m and I made a few contacts. I did not turn the amp on as I wasn't sure about it's operation and without a manual at hand I figured to let sleeping dogs lie. My question is..is that how it should be? That with the rig on and the amp off I heard nothing. I assume that had I turned the amp on that I should be hearing what I wanted to hear out of the transceiver?? That the amp has to be on for the full circuit so to speak to operate??? Again, never owned an amp. Thinking of the Kenwood to use at my cottage and the amp here in the shack hooked up to a TR-4 that I picked up. Any thoughts out there???
