hello list! last friday being my birthday, i found myself at the albuquerque auction.
there it was... so i brought the fts 4060 home and began reading... (many thanks to brooke clark) put it all back together and fired it up. now it has been running for many hours. no lock. the readings are in range and the control is being swept 0-5 for each .1 increment of the beam current. i am guessing that the tube (which has probably been off since 2007-8) needs a lot of vacuum pumping. is that a good guess? many thanks dave -- Dave Mallery, K5EN (ubuntu linux 10.10) HC31 Box 99E; Williamsburg, NM 87942 no gates... no windows! free at last! linux counter #64628 (since 1997) "People aren't as dumb as Microsoft needs them to be." --PJ, May 2007 _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
