Re: [Drakelist] Two questions...TR7 related
Carl - I believe it's RG-174. It comes in either stranded (26 ga) or solid (24.5 ga) center conductor. Belden 7805R is one, unfortunately Mouser only has 500' reels for $350. Perhaps someone has the 100' put-ups for about $75. If someone knows better, or another source, speak up! The XMIT and RCV buttons are under FIXED for a reason! The control the fixed frequency function of the AUX-7. If no AUX-7, or no crystals in the AUX-7, the VCOs will unlock and settle around 18 MHz for the bands up through 20M, and around 34 MHz for the bands 15M and up. 73, Garey gypsym...@aol.com wrote: Hello to the group, Can anyone with some certainty advise what the coax cable part number is between boards on a TR7.

Carl, The switch connections are shown on the Chassis and Parent Board Schematic, page 2-5 of the service manual. I suspect the magical things are the synthesizer VCO free-running when the switch is depressed because there is no PTO signal or fixed crystal signal in TX or RX, depending on which switch. Sorry, can't help you with the first question. :) 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
