Hey, Dino - Thanks for the reference you gave to Mike! I just downloaded it for myself and It looks to be very valuable for all of us.

One series by Doug DeMaw W1FB (SK) might be a good place to start. It was a four-part series titled "Basic Equipment Servicing" that ran in QST from December 1981 thru March 1982. You can download them from the Archives section of the ARRL web site. Good Luck! 73 - Dino KL0S On Feb012011, at 0918 AM, Richard Tucker wrote: Michael, The best thing to do is get started. I have an old ARRL publication which has helped me with basic trouble shooting and helped me learn a few things along the way. It is Understanding Amateur Radio, end ed., 1976. It has chapters on: Some Needed fundamentals, How receivers work, and a good section on troubleshooting.

I am new to radio repair and have some Hammarlund and Drake rigs I would like to refurbish. My lack of experience and knowledge has brought me here. I have read that using a VTVM and a Signal generator is very helpful in this enterprise. I have some experience with a vom , however I have none with a signal generator. My question is, is this the correct choice and should I endeavor to acquire and learn to use them.
