Don't despair, I think we're just in the Summer Doldrums. I've been
wondering if my ISP has been sending everything thru.

there is nothing -absolutely nothing- half as much worth doing as simply
messing about in boats.
Here just waiting for traffic. Summer is always slow for radio.

About two weeks ago I found time to hop on the radio.. While tuning
around 20m the band went dead silent (think unplugging the antenna) and
the digital display lost the leading 1 (so instead of 14.150 it was
Hello Thom, yes we are still lurking in the background,
during the summer frequent list participation gives way to
cutting grass, vacations and other numerous activities.
Wait till the snow flies this winter and we have 3 or 4 feet

Thom,
-Since there were 15 posts alone on the 29th and nearly that many on later
days before it went down, I think the interest is still here.
Its a great list Thom, and I thank you for all your efforts to provide us
with itIt is appreciated

The list has been indispensable to me. I could not keep my Drakes going without
it. I've been saved multiple times by the list.

Hi
I just recently joined the list and would hate to see it abolished. One of the
determinants in a recent purchase of a vintage TR-4 was the ability to get help
and keep informed via the Drake List. I sure would feel lost without that
connection.
While we are at it --anyone have a dial
I'm still lurking as well. Glad to see everyone is still out there, hi.

I am! ... I went to the Dallas (Plano) Ham-Com this past weekend
and attendence seemed a bit down. Inside I only remember seeing
a dirty Drake L4B ... looks like it would clean up, a real ratty 2B, I
think, half the decals were worn off the front panel. It may be a nice

OK, here's one I haven't heard of before. I have an early TR7 on the
bench that I have installed the resistor in an empty filter slot to
fake an AM filter. I've never used this mod myself, since I've sprung
for the AM filter in my rigs. In tuning around and listening to AM
signals, I have

There is a history of problems with the 48 kHz filter elements
drifting with age.
I think John Kriner has replacements, they come in matched pairs.

Thom,
It's obvious that you aren't trying to make a buck, espouse a particular
theory of government, or otherwise get on the soapbox.
Good Lord, don't remove it! It is a beacon of hope when the smoke leaks
out of something in my Drake!

I really enjoy the Drakelist. I'd be willing to pay a nominal membership fee
to see it continued. I enjoy the interchanges, info that is unavailable

Thom,
I'll throw in my 2 cents. I don't post very often, but I have a
separate Drakelist folder in my Outlook Express that automatically catches
all the postings and I read them every single day. The list already helped
me fix a TR-7 and I'm thankful for the list and archives. It's a

Thom, I don't post very often because there is usually someone who has more
