[Drakelist] How to connect an external frequency counter to a TR-7?

2013-01-21 Thread Adrian P. van Bloois
Hi Folks, How can I connect an external frequency counter to a TR-7? The reason I'd like to do this is that I cannot read the normal display, I'm blind, so I would like to connect a counter that gives the frequency in CW. Thanks 73 Adrian -- Adri P. van Bloois

IMHO this is a Drake list. Recently I see various NON Drake items being offered for sale. Why not go to ebay? I think this list should be restricted to Drake stuff only. Sell the mighty fine junk elsewhere Please. 73 -- Adri P. van Bloois Antonlaan 104 email:

No worries, Gary. I have a scope probe and I'll try that tomorrow. I have another DFM, which has a stated sensitivity of 30mV up to 50MHz and 35mV up to 150MHz. I'll try a few things out first. Thanks all Adrian MW1LCR ~ Wales -Original Message- From: Gary Poland [mailto:gpola

tried the RX sie of things and noticed that the PBT is needed to resolve an SSB signal, so I guess I need to look at that as well. I'll get the receive side going on all bands first, then look at alignment voltages. Thanks all for the help so far. Regards Adrian MW1LCR -Original Message
