You know, Todd...
I agree with you Todd...I sold my KW-1 in 1992 for $22,000.00 and was
happy to get it...I found a Johnson 500 for a guy in Florida for $2500
in 2000 and he was pleased as punch... I just paid $425 for an SX42 but
I wanted it and was willing to pay it... So go figure If you want it bad
enough you

Nah nah nah... North Cuba is from Orlando, South (and East). Redneck

I would like to thank everyone who replied to my
question both on and off the list. There are just more
SSB who are operating at the right distance and power
to get the signal over the S9 noise local noise here
at my QTH to make the appearance of at greater
difference. Getting the noise problems
If you come close to here Todd, I'll take you on up yonder to Booger
Holler. Not far from where I live. A REAL place. Used to be

Actually that is about it. In reception, the advantage is the signal to
noise ratio. By having a 1/2 bandwidth and all else being equal then you
will have a 3 DB drop in noise.in a lot of situations the bandwidth on older
AM receivers is several times what it is on a modern SSB RCVRs The
You've got a deal!

The muting contacts are Pins 5 and 8 on the octal plug (SO-1) on the rear
chassis apron of the SX-42. There is probably a jumper between those pins now.
Thank you John...

I have a 828 pentode with an intermittent filament. When I tap on the glass
it will usually stay lit as long as power is applied and sometimes comes
back on when I've removed power. When it's lit it works beautifully. It
seems I've heard guys talk of a hit and miss method of restoring filaments
Does the pins or socket contacts look like they got over heated? Any
solder dropped out of the pins? I have read about resoldering pins but
the plating eventually is gone so the solder won't stick. Even so too
much heat could compromise the pin to glass seal. If that is the case of
soldering,
