I had a G-50 a couple years ago with the same problem. The internal reduction drive assembly was slipping in some places. I squirted some degreaser inside the bigger shaft, and it worked much better. It started slipping again when it dried, but after squirting a little more in there, the slipping

I was thinking of putting an add-on kit on my vertical to make it resonant on six meters, but now I'm thinking that might be a waste of time and money if I can tune the antenna on that band with my tuner and get a low swr at the transceiver. It's a tube rig, so it probably doesn't need a real low

Sounds like a good idea if my static comes back. It was there for several days, then went away. I'm sure it will come back again sometime. (Hoping it won't though). -Original Message- From: Donald Chester [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2005 6:10 PM To:

I'm planning on getting in on that if I remember. I was playing with the monitor scope a little yesterday. I took the CRT out, and connected it to your monitorscope. At first I didn't see anything on it, but after fiddling with the knobs, I got a trace. It didn't seem as bright as yours, but

[AMRadio] Bad Static Problem

2005-02-01 Thread Schichler, Alfred
I just started getting an intermittent noise problem on several bands that runs from s-9 to about 20 over. It's especially bad on 40 meters, but I can hear it on 80 and 160 pretty good too. Not too bad on the higher bands. Sometimes it is just one or two pops per second, then it changes

-worts, and other gizmo's, and I bet it adds up to over 100 watts all the time. Some of this junk is now using switching power supplies with little or NO filtering. Sigh. Good luck with finding the culprit! Regards, Jim WD5JKO --- Schichler, Alfred [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I just started

[AMRadio] Low Power AM nets

2005-01-03 Thread Schichler, Alfred
I was wondering if there are any nets, or just parts of the 75 or 40 meter bands where I could find anyone on low power AM, preferably controlled-carrier, screen-grid modulation. I recently got a DX-40 / HQ-100 AM Station on the air, for nostalgic purposes, but it seems like the only AM stations
