This has got to be approaching the 2nd largest hamfest in the country, and a great one for boatanchor collectors! Make your plans for next year.. :) As we were packing to go, a visitor to our tent left something that got packed by my over-zealous helpers: An MJF bag with a couple of knife switches, a nicely homebrewed RF ammeter, and a Yaesu catalog inside.

The manual (TM 11-896) says that the crystal types are HC-1/U, which apparently have no substitute out of the earlier Signal Corps numbered holders. According to SIG 5, HC-1/U has two 1/8" dia. pins spaced 3/4" and is only 7/16" thick. There was a post a few days ago asking for TCS crystals to use in an R-270. The TCS crystal is in a 3-pin holder and is around an inch thick. But the receiver owner responded to my note telling him what the manual says with the information that the crystal sockets in his receiver take a 3-pin holder. If anyone here has an R-270, could you please check and tell me what crystal sockets it has inside the oscillator box? In case anyone has a Super Pro with missing nameplate, the BC-794 base unit tunes up to 40 MC and the presence of the crystal oscillator is identified by a small black legend plate and a rotary switch at the top of the front panel just to the left of the S-meter. If more than one R-270 turns up with the 3-pin sockets, I will annotate my reprint of the TM to show that.

OTOH, considering the vast quantities available and the low prices back "when" command sets and other surplus were properly considered raw material for whatever projects Hams and others might decide to undertake. This situation made Ham radio what it was in the decades following WW2. But, that was then and now is now. Book does contain much useful information, though, and there are still plenty of junkers around to play with if one is so inclined. Dennis D.

None of the numbers seemed to match my AK schematic, but it gives me a real good idea of what probably is paper and what probably is not paper. At any rate, I may not have to do anything in the way of re-capping on the AK. An off-list e-mail suggested I try the set out before recapping it so I did. It seems to work very well as is, so I'll probably just leave it unless it develops a problem. thanks much and 73, ben, kd5byb -- Ben Hall, kd5byb@kd5byb.net - ALWAYS OUTNUMBERED, NEVER OUTGUNNED. ------------------------------ Message-ID: From: "Michael Hardie" To: Old Tube Radios Subject: Clamper Grid Question Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2009 12:59:29 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=original Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Both the DX-100 and the Valiant have the grid in the clamp tube connected (via resistors and an adjustment pot) to the final grid bias supply and "half" the HV supply.

Wouldn't it have been simpler to = connect to the LV supply? Hi, Mike The clamp tube protects the final from the effect of loss of drive by conducting heavily in the absence of final amplifier grid current (no negative voltage at rf choke of 6146 grids to counterbalance positive voltage from 1/2 HV point). = When the clamp tube conducts, it reduces the screen voltage of the 6146's. That's because the 6146 screens share the same dropping resistors as the clamp tube plate, both fed from the HV supply. The grid tie thru a high resistance = to the 1/2 HV point ensures a heavy turn on for the clamp tube, = since its grid will go positive in the absence of 6146 grid drive. If the clamp tube grid source of positive voltage were the LV power supply, its grid would be positive at all times of no drive, even with the HV off (and thus no plate voltage on the clamp tube). It would not be good to operate the clamp tube with a positive control grid but no plate voltage: its grid would then start acting as a plate and may be destroyed. 73, Ed Knobloch ------------------------------ From: "Jim Allen" To: Old Tube Radios Subject: Panel Paint for the Ranger II Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2009 20:14:15 -0700 Message-ID: <001501ca34e9$70d063d0$52712b70$@net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0016_01CA34AE.C4718BD0" Content-Language: en-us This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0016_01CA34AE.C4718BD0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I'm in need of the two colors of paint on the panel of the Johnson Ranger II.
