Re: [Repeater-Builder] Heat sink anyone?

2003-12-14 Thread Fred Flowers


The only two that interchange I know of are the late 110 w VHF  75/100 w UHF. The early 110 w vhf that uses 4 transistors in the final and the low band may interchange. I have both and I'll look.  Not only do you have to drill  tap all the holes. You have to rob the little metal stand offs from someplace, to hold down the circuit board. I've done it on a drill press but a Bridgeport would be easer  more precise.

Actually it doesn't, most of the heat sinks are band specific unless youwant to drill and tap about 20 some 6-32 and 14 4-40 holes in thealuminum to hold components down - I did it and it is a very tediousproject.-- 73...Clark Beckman N8PZDYour use of Yahoo!

The little metal standoffs can be robbed from the 
mobile donor heatsink,they knock out nicely from the bottom with a drift. I have 
hand redrilled the heatsinks,its a thankless,tedious job. 73,Lee
