[AMRadio] Meter Needed

2005-02-14 Thread Bob Maser
I called Simpson today and after sending them a picture of my broken meter they agree that it is a Model 27. Seems that Simpson doesn't follow form,fit and function rules because their current Model 27 is not like mine. Mine has the vertical stripes down the center on the lower half of the met

Ya Mike, nice machine. Could never beat one with my 383 Sport Fury, which also had 4-4-2. Ah, but we digress even further from Steve's original post. But, I did have a Heath Shawnee 6M transceiver in the Fury for a short time. Pete, wa2cwa On Mon, 14 Feb 2005 14:30:09 -0500 "Mike Dorworth,K4XM"

well, I thought it was a Olds 442 from about 1966 or so. Four BBl carb, 4 on the floor and dual exhausts..442..would leave about the same dust as a pair of 4-400s would on 75M.. Mike - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 2:21 PM Subject: Re: [A

This type of construction of resistors and even capacitors is common in the old radios of the 20s and 30s. 73 Jim W5JO - Original Message - From: "Merz Donald S" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Amradio (E-mail)" ; "'Glowbugs (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 11

[AMRadio] 2 Meg Multiplier Oddity

2005-02-14 Thread Merz Donald S
Yesterday, I was replacing a 2 megohm meter multiplier that seemed to have failed. It was a single large-bodied resistor stamped "2M 3.5W". I get it unsoldered and it falls apart in my hands--a cardboard tube with two 2-watt, 1 megohm resistors soldered together in the middle. From the outside,
