FWIW, I found 3 computer switch strips over the past couple years at garage
sales and thrift stores. I didn't pay over $2.50 for any one of them. BTW you
would be surprised the radio equipment you can find in these places as well.

Fred,
Do you have a scope?
If so, start looking stage by stage to see where the issue is...then
fix that stage.
Since you don't have any Spot...it is before the finals for sure.

Hi folks:
I've got a Drake L7 with a noisy fan, and I was thinking of replacing it.
Would anybody happen to have one? Thanks!

Please forward the entire message to keep the thread intact. It helps to be able to go back to see

If you have a scope, close the PTT and check the 5.645 MHz CO signal at the wiper of the BALANCE
pot. -OR-
If you have a general coverage receiver, see if you can

Diode D3 appears to be good..and I checked D1 D2 while I was at it.
Diode D3:
V10b Cathode side 4.5 volts. And it varies in voltage a lot based on.
NB is off.
SSB signals being rcvd. pulses up a lot with static crashes.
The non-cathode side of D3 is 150 vlots if NB is OFF and 30

Hi,

Hi Adrian,
My recommendation would be simply to mount whatever you might have right
available atop the rig, so that it's blowing the hot air generated in the final
PA cage OUTWARD...
I did some tests awhile back shared the results with this Reflector on how
very beneficial the addition of a
4 muffin fan located on top of the case right above the
finals cage, pulling air UP and OUT.
Since you are in Europe, 220VAC fans are the norm and might
be too loud. Try to find a 24VDC fan and run it on 12vdc.
Quietly moves a lot of air.

You don't need a lot of air. Just a 'gentle breeze' that can be totally silent. Computer fans are
cheap and quiet. Run a noisy one at a lower voltage/
Easiest to sit on top of the cabinet over the PA, _BLOWING UP_. Rubber or foam 'feet' just to
keep it in place and prevent
Hi,
Thanks guys for the great response. All very similar. :-)
It's just what I did to my Yaesu FTDX-400 in 1972. The thing got so hot
that you could fry an egg on it. Then I bought a fan, Papst, real robust
German thing. The finals were probably cooler than the rest of the rig.
BOth fan and rig
Time for a scope.
I still think you've got a contact problem somewhere. The switch wafers in the
B's are a big improvement over the A's, but they can still get crudded up.
The fact that you can receive on either the transmitter or receiver suggests a
problem in either the FUNCTION switch,
There never was an official fan.
I can remember using a 120V muffin fan, slowed down with a huge, honkin'
wire-wound resistor, the first time I used a fan over the finals 25 years
ago. Today, we've got a plethora of 12VDC fans - some with thermistor
control like the one I got at a hamfest
The C-line is sold. Thanks to all for the interest.

I am trying to wire up my old Shure 444D, and find something strange.
According to the manual, there are supposed to be red, white, black, and
shield wires in the coiled cable. That is what shows coming out of the
cable inside the mic base. Red is mic element, shield is also for the
mic

Someone may have replaced the cord at some point. Take the bottom off and see
where the wires go.

Hello All,
Congratulations to Mark, N1VQW on his AC-4 Re-build (with the 'Soft Start') and
the subsequent comments by Garey, K4OAH and Dick, KE4NS. Etc. I rather like the
idea of a remote 'Switch Board'. As far as originality of equipment is
concerned could the relay have been mounted outboard
