Hello again to all,
I have to say you guys know your stuff out there, I found the t4x needed
some alignment and it cured my "brassy" or trebly sounding audio.. Now

times, it is now stuck on. seems the on off switch is stuck o

The low audio with the AF gain fully CCW is normal. It has to do with the
make up of the controls that Drake used. I believe that Drake began han

Hi all,
FWIW
Was doing some antenna checking while the wx gave me a temporary warmup
yesterday.
Had two pieces of RG8--w/PL259's and a coupling in the middle run out to an
antenna.(for inserting my W4). To make things waterproof I had
wrapped with a silicone base tape, and gone eac
The real reason the audio doesn't go all the way down has nothing to
do with the switch. When the control is all the way down but the
switch is not off,
the wiper is perfectly aligned with the contact on the carbon. What
causes it to still pass audio is the contact on the wafer has about a

This is a known characteristic of this radio.

Hello Ken,
I am afraid, it is normal. Reason is that when audio is completely muted, the
radio is off because the on/off switch is activated by then...
This is very common with the TR-7.

I had the same problem with an old hollow-state receiver. My XYL said that
either that damn radio had to go or she'd leve me. Gosh I miss her.
Just kidding. There's something wrong with the AGC in the old receiver.
I'll get to it one of these days.

I recently acquired TR-7 SN 3173, my first. Is it normal for the AF control to
provide enough volume to still hear easily when full counter-clockwise or is
the pot changing value with age? Only way I have of cutting audio volume down
lower is by use of RF control. Doesn't bother me but I have
