Re: [Drakelist] value of RF choke in L-75 linear

Hi Evan, In that particular application most any run-of-the-mill receiving-type 2.5-mh RF choke should do the job nicely... ~73~ de Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ ** - Original Message - From: K9sqg To: drakelist@zerobeat.net

[Drakelist] Red dial scale pegs

I have a 2B and a T-4X that both have very faded red pegs (or whatever you call them) that are used to shift the dial scale for calibration purposes. You can tell they used to be red, but there is hardly any red left on either of them. I was wondering if there is an easy way to restore the color

Re: [Drakelist] Red dial scale pegs

Hi Al, The peg on my R-4 was pretty much faded-out, too, when I got it 3 years ago... I touched it up with some matching bright red acrylic paint from my daughter's old toy box! Worked like a charm... ~73~ de Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ

Re: [Drakelist] Red dial scale pegs

Testor's has a nice, bright red in their model paint series. You can get it either brush type in a small bottle or a small spray can. Either way should last a LONG time and paint lots of these knobs, hi. 73, Don, WB5HAK___ Drakelist mailing list
