Regular fuel shipments can take 2 weeks to cross the country. Shipping to APO/AE (Europe), APO/AA (Americas) and APO/AP (Pacific region) is fairly steady, at least going by Priority. Parcel Post or Media Mail go by SAM (Space Available Mail) and can take months to get ANYWHERE within the military postal system. This is because EVERY other class of mail gets priority over SAM, and some of those parcels don't leave the mil hub for weeks (stateside).

Its right next to the bandswitch. Not the grain on front panel, the worn paint is on the plate. Looks like the person before me, turning the knob back and fourth had his thumb always rubbing against the plate and that worned it out. The letters on the top plate are fine and the right side is fine. So, does this plate come off and I can get another? Which would make it alot easier. Or I have matching paint and I can respray the gray on that side. Not sure how it will match? And the 5 white indicator lines, how would I get those back on. They are not fully gone.

Check the paper caps... just check them all with an ohmmeter and I bet you find at least one shorted one. I'd tend to shotgun them all out myself, but find the problem first before you go swapping the rest of them out. The transformer almost certainly won't fail... not unless it's damaged as the result of a tube or cap failure. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis."

Actually, it's a pretty godawful mike, and it was by the standards of the day as well. Mostly because of the grille design, which makes for a very peaky upper midrange in comparison with the EV mikes, and which also makes for very bad pattern control. With a communications mike, the pattern control isn't quite as big a deal as for PA stuff, though. Try it and see if you like it... it'll take ten minutes to make up a cable so you can decide. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis."

Friedrichs" Subject: French Military Radio - Looking for Schematics Message-ID: Hello- This is a long shot, I suppose, but the people in this group seem most likely to know the answer. I recently acquired a VHF military radio manufactured by Thompson CSF. (If there is any doubt as to its qualification as a "boatanchor" you should try lifing it!) The radio is composed of three parts: The transceiver itself, with a plate reading: EMETT, RECEPT ER95B 981 AS 1293 S/N 26.043691 14041 A snap-on module with a plate reading: BJ231A S/N 3454 And an external 15 watt RF amp with a plate reading: AMPLI-HF AM215A 981 AS 1293 S/N 26.043013 7895 It's solid state, and if I had to take an uninformed wild guess at its vintage, I would say 70's or 80's perhaps... Through some probing with an Ohmmeter and some educated guesses, I've actually got this thing to power up, receive, and transmit a carrier into a dummy load. The outboard RF power amp will not work, however, because I'm missing some signals to drive appropriate relays inside. Also, I haven't yet figured out how to hook up a microphone to the set. Needless to say, schematics would be of great help at this point. Anyone know of a European dealer in manuals that might have documentation for the equipment mentioned above? 73 Pete AC7ZL hpf (at) gainbroadband (dot) com Article: 103185 of rec.radio.amateur.boatanchors Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 05:45:06 -0400 From: K3HVG Subject: Re: DAMPNESS CHASER References: <44EB2A72.577FCB9@shaw.ca> Message-ID: As with most popular safe brands, there's an access provided. > > > > Can you close he safe with the heater cord coming through the door? > > Irv Article: 103186 of rec.radio.amateur.boatanchors From: "Avery W3AVE" Subject: Re: F.A.

The equipment I am asking about is here: http://www.bunkerofdoom.com/kd5oei/anatest1/index.html Whomever had a manual for this and had offered to make me a copy or sell it to me, please let me know, I apologize about the e-mail outage. I would really like to get those beasties up and running again, as panoramic adapters.
