Re: [drakelist] T4X tuning issue
Ron Wagner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Wayne, It really sounds like parasitics on the surface. Can you look at the output power level to see that it continues to increase as well? A parasitic will generate output, just not on the correct frequency. Have you checked your neutralization recently? Is your preselector in the right position? It sounds like this only happens once in a while. Is it on all bands, or just higher bands? Are you tuning with the tune position, or are you tuning in CW mode (not recommended by Drake, but will work if you are a CW op)? 73, Ron WD8SBB - Original Message - From: "Wayne Heil" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Monday, March 12, 2007 2:01 PM Subject: [drakelist] T4X tuning issue "Wayne Heil" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- When I try to tune my T4X and I get to the part where I am supposed to increase the gain until the plate current stops increasing, sometimes the plate current just keeps increasing and won't level out.
