RE: [drakelist] Case screws Drake 4 series
"James B Davis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Rich, Jim Davis here NW5F, I just put in a phone call to Ron Baker WB4HFN and got his answering service. I requested an email from him if he is alright. Jim/NW5F Joe I don't know what happened to WB4HFN. I've tried to contact him with no success. The screws for my TR-3 are black slot-head. I think they are 6-32, but I'd have to double-check the size. I suspect these are the same screws used on the 4-series and would be interested if someone could correct me. Someone is selling what is supposed to be replacements for these, but the photos show them as philips-head. No sense in paying shipping on the wrong screws, so I just went down to the local hardware store and got the closest match that I could find. They are the same color, size and length, but the head is slightly smaller and takes an allen-wrench. I'd actually prefer to have something different than a slot-head screw. It is really easy to grab the wrong screw when you are disassembling the cabinet and accidentally snap the head off one of the trim pots.

RE: [drakelist] Tuning Knobs
Terry, I am going to leave this for someone else to address. I am sorry you have had problems. You will get a good answer from some of the guys that know something about this, as I don't. 73, Jim NW5F Hi Jim! The central 'spinners' (inserts) for the standard R-4B knob have a raised edge to them, (hence 'dished'), unlike those of the (I think) R-4C and the Collins 'S' line series, which are dead flat.. Replacement spinners for those are available, and I have used them on my KWM-2A, etc . So many of the Drake 4 series seem to have scratched inserts and it would be nice to be able to complete a restoration by replacing them. I'd have thought there would be suffcient demand for someone to tool up and manufacture replacements, if these are not othewise available. I hope you are having fun with your Drake gear. I am focussing on the 'B' line. Many years ago I ordered a 4B via an English company, and it was a darned long time coming. When it did eventually arrive it was an early production 4C! Basically a excellent receiver, but quite a shock to discover that I needed to purchase additional filters, etc. I never did, as my main interest back then was two meter SSB (I was living at my parents' place and had lost my HF antenna!) and I used the 4C as the heart of a solid state 2m SSB transverter/transceiver home brew set up. So I guess my new interest in the 4B line is pure nostalgia! All the best, Terry G3VFO ps 4B spinners/inserts, anyone....? - Original Message - From: James B Davis <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 1:14 PM Subject: RE: [drakelist] Tuning Knobs Terry, Top of the morning to you.

RE: [drakelist] Head Phones
Al, thank you very much for your comments. They are worth considering for sure. Jim/NW5F Subject: Re: [drakelist] Head Phones Headphones are headphones, it's not rocket science. Even a cheap $10 pair should work better than using a speaker for what you want and need to do. Probably the most important part of buying a set of headphones is the fit and comfort. If they don't fit your head or aren't comfortable for wearing a long time don't buy them. Some can fit very tight and will squeeze your head way too much and others will be loose and won't want to stay in place. The ones that fit around the ear like a cup will probably suit your needs best because they will cut out external noise and make it easier to hear what you want to hear. The last thing to look at is the cord. You will want a cord long enough to reach where you need it to but not so long it's going to get in the way. Some cords are coiled 17 - 20 feet long and can get in the way or pull on your head when you move. Others are not coiled and can easily be cut to the needed length. The last thing to look at if you are buying expensive ones is the availability and cost of replacement pads. The pads can wear out and need replacement so make sure what you buy you will be able to get pads for in 5 - 10 years. Before you buy new headphones be sure you can return them should you find out they are not right for you. Many of the outboard audio DSP units have a place to plug in an external speaker or headset. I have the ClearSpeech mobile speaker and was able to mount it in my Yaesu external speaker enclosure. You should be able to do the same with the Drake external speakers. I wired mine so it used the external speaker and jack of the Yaesu speaker. This way I can plug my headphones into it without any problems.

Well the opinions were right,...and it was not a very good speaker. I sent it back to Universal Radio for credit. An MS4 sounds much better and thats what I used for the time I owned mine. Even better for broadcast listening is a powered computer speaker. In addition, the internal speaker sounds pretty darn good.

The MS-7 and MS-8 are front firing and thus in my opinion sound fine for their size and considering that the TR-7 and R-8 internal speakers fire up and to the side respectfully. 73, Gary W8PU http://home.cinci.rr.com/w8pu -- Submissions:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net -- -- Submissions:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net --
RE: [drakelist] MS8 Speaker
"James B Davis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- David, Note 2: I just saw in ebay an MS-8 that sold for $157. Wouldn't that be a little too much for a speaker ? Jim/NW5F "David & Chris Drake" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Jim, The MS8 is out there, but got a bad rap from the git-go as to sound quality. I, myself purchased a brand new R8 when they came out and then, contrary to opinion,... and because I'm a bit hardheaded, ..ordered the MS8. Well the opinions were right,...and it was not a very good speaker. I sent it back to Universal Radio for credit. An MS4 sounds much better and thats what I used for the time I owned mine. Even better for broadcast listening is a powered computer speaker. In addition, the internal speaker sounds pretty darn good. OK, having said all that, it would be nice, from a collector point of view, to have the infamous MS8 sitting next to the world beater R8 or its able successors the R8A and R8B. Hope you find one!! But if you do, use both the MS8 and the internal speaker together for best results.

RE: [drakelist] MS8 Speaker
Evan, You probably have the best solid thought about these speakers. I do have an advantage over a lot of guys in as much as my hearing is in SAD condition and I may not detect anything of a negative nature out of the MS-8. I am very bad about wanting things to match and be symmetrical when it is assembled and ready for use. The appearance of a lot of things I have is my hang-up, it can be a real pain to deal with at times. I was never able to shake off the desire to have Drake equipment from way back in 1967 when I got my first set of twins. In my opinion, it would be very difficult for me to find ANY rig that would please me as much as the Drakes do.

But to each their own and what is preferred by one might be shunned by another. Let's all enjoy the Drake gear to our own particular preferences! What does help the MS-7 though, is to get a replacement speaker for the TR-7, mount it in the MS-7 cabinet, and insert acoustical foam inside the cabinet. 73, Evan -Original Message- From: David & Chris Drake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tue, 4 Sep 2007 9:11 am Subject: Re: [drakelist] MS8 Speaker "David & Chris Drake" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Jim, The MS8 is out there, but got a bad rap from the git-go as to sound quality.

RE: [drakelist] MS8 Speaker
"James B Davis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- David, Thank you very much for the comments about the MS-8. May I ask you this question please. In your opinion why would the MS-8 be an inferior sounding speaker ? Would it be because of the case it is in ? The area that the sound is being squeezed down into. I think the MS-4 has a 4" speaker but a larger cabinet and maybe that is why it sounds better. Also the R8 is fairly scarce and I think the MS-8 would look great setting next to my R8. I have four Drake rigs, the R-4A, T-4X.R-4C, T-4XC, and two TR-4C's and all the rigs have their own speakers, also the MN-2000 and a MN-4. I thought I would be really complete if I had the MS-8. I will take your advice and use both if I am ever able to get a MS-8.

Years ago I attended a lot of furniture auctions in the role of a "picker"..the dealers told me what they were willing to pay for a piece, and if I found it, I bought it for them. They never had to attend an auction and put up with it, and I made a few bucks for my troubles.
