Re: [Drakelist] SP75 Speech Processor and C Line

Tom and Alan, thank you for your very helpful comments. I do have fans in my T4XC and also my TR7 and they work well. I mostly use the SP75 with the TR7 and it works fine. I really would love to buy a DX Engineering processor for the T4XC but they are very very rare-maybe one day I will be

John, When I had my C Line, I used the Magnum 6 speech processor and it worked well. I'm not a big fan of speech processors so I didn't use it much, just when I needed the extra punch. It may be more affordable than the DX Engineering processor. 73 Lee WB6SSW

Mike - I haven't had to do that to one, but I would start with 5 pF, then 10 pF if necessary. Be sure they are at least 2 kV caps, which is going to be the hard part. They also need to be NP0 or 0 TC. The trimmer cap is 2.7 - 8.4 pF, or a delta-C of 5.7 pF. The T-4XC had a 6 pF parallel

Mike - Before you expend too much effort in this, do you have ANY tubes that will neutralize? The RCA and Sylvania tubes were very close to the same and either should neutralize without difficulty or changes. I HAVE used GE tubes without difficulty also, aside the from fact that they

I use GE's in my T-4XC and they neutralized easily without modification, with the variable cap near half meshed (pretty good). Oddly, I had RCA's that I could not neutralize. But by the 1970s it was hard to tell who really made what tube. Look for a series of dots by the tube number stamp. Tubes
