The total power pulled from power supply determines
effeciency. A low level and linear consumes less power for same carrier
power. See some KW mobile rigs from years ago.
also I remember WCKY had 500,000 watts modulated carrier ( 2 megawatts pep)
Can't comment on the stock G-76 or it's audio, but the triode connection on
the 6DQ6 modulators is a perfectly valid & workabel, if uncommon and poorly
documented, mode of operation.
I have used such a connection with 6146's - audio input to screen grids,
with control grids either grounded or

First off, let me thank you for your great response Jim!
And sure, I would be very much interested in what you did to make the audio
better in the G76, if you have the time
Dan says:
I have not seen any mods on the Internet for G76'ez...
Anyone know of any?
Reply from Jim WD5JKO:
No not too much that I've seen. I have two G-76's
myself, and the quality of the power supply is a
factor in the quality of the transmitted signal. I
have a home made (not by me) AC powe

HmmI have heard G76s on 10 meter AM that
sound great! I wonder what they did to improve the TX audio?

No aplogy necessary, Craig. I am happy with the rig, just
had a question that got sent to the list (THIS POST IS
SENT TO THE LIST ON PURPOSE).

I have one, used to have two.
I am up in the air about what to do with mine.
They are great little rigs, but have 2 big problems
from my standpoint:
The receive audio sucks. The crazy design uses part of the
modulator as the audio output, in a very bad and crazy circuit.
I used a small IC chip o
Hmmm. Well, it was working okay the last time I checked it. I could,
of course, blame UPS, as is the fashion -- HOWEVER, I believe I re-tubed
the radio as a courtesy to you just before I boxed it up (no good deed
goes unpunished). :-) . It's possible that a tube or two is bad --

WELL HELL!
It was NOT my intention to send this to the list.
I apologize both to Craig and to the list.
However I am not pissed or anything about the rig. There are several
very good reasons it may have worked when he checked it, and now it
doesn't.
I kinda wish this list
Cool page... THANKS!

I have a nice Gonset G-76 AM/CW transceiver for
sale. I've recapped this little rig and
repainted its cabinet in Hammertone Gray. It's
in very good shape cosmetically and electronically.
It DOES look nice!
