Some clubs around here have made 6 m cans from scrap pieces of copper
or aluminum pipe. Both work very well, but aluminum has a
higher
rate of expansion/contraction with temperature changes.

Tom, if you already have a digital control tray in your possesion
it is not all that difficult to make it work on the analog.
It is not plug and play, however. If you do not have a digital

The problem with using galvanized is that the coating is
zinc, which is a very active metal that corrodes easily.
It's used as a sacrificial metal to prevent rust and corrosion
from attacking the steel underneath.

Why don't they take the GROL license exam to prove what they know.
The old Element 3 and 4 for the Commertial license was pretty much

Amateur licenses today.

Hello
Group,
What I
have seen in the past on these types of PA's is that the power control
circuit/voltage actually oscillates and causes all sorts of problems.
Check it with an oscilloscope to find out for sure. A good capacitor

The connector you need is old Molex #1991-3R1, which is the new Molex
#19-09-1032. You will also need the standard Molex .093 socket crimp
