« on: October 03, 2016, 04:51:54 PM »
In this video we take a look at a Heathkit DX-20 CW transmitter.
This rig is in pretty bad shape.
Should we restore or not is the question.

Other Electronics and repair / TMP connectors
« on: September 06, 2016, 12:10:04 PM »
TMP connectors

They're manufactured by Taiko-Denki. The RF Connection has them (http://www.therfc.com/taiko.htm) and you can find them on ebay

(http://tinyurl.com/ebay-taiko-denki)


Also International Radio has them.

There are outfits such as Dakota Electronics (link) that deal in used crimpers but, they're still expensive and you'll still likely use it only

once (they don't list a TMP crimp tool). I like the idea of buying a premade cable. Here are 30cm/11.8" cables:

#68 Yaesu FT-747 No receive diagnose and repair

In this video we have a look at why a FT-747 has no receive on any band.
After the repair we find that SSB has distorted sound and then we inspect for the cause.
