[DX-CHAT] Power cycling the ACOM-1000

2007-11-19 Thread Paul M Dunphy
I have an ACOM-1000 that has exceeded my expectation by far. This question is basic electronics, and I'm asking it in the context of the ACOM-1000, not radios, computers, etc. I use my station most of the day, from about 8:00 AM until midnight. This is done occasionally as in I'm in

[DX-CHAT] Power cycling the ACOM-1000

2007-11-19 Thread Ragnar Otterstad
I have been turning everything on in the morning and then turning it off around midnight. In terms of wear and tear on the ACOM-1000, as well as the life of the tube, would it be better to turn it off for the 2-3 hour periods when it is being used, or to leave it on all day as I have

Interesting question. Personally, I only turn the amp and xcvr on when I use them and turn them off when I'm done. I posed this question to Krassy at Acom a few years ago (I have a 2000A) and he recommended turning it off if it will sit idle for more than 30 minutes. OTOH, my computer is

[DX-CHAT] Gain of a 5 element monobander
