Having one of these to take care of--my immediate question is:

WHY!!!!

You will probably have to fuss a great deal shifting around the "deck"--metal plate attached to the final--to get the darn thing making power without oscillating.

Interesting. The NV-LT series uses conventional paper/fiberglass (?) filters. A little oddball--2" deep--not something carried by your local big box hardware supplier--but available through Amazon. At least that is better than the Trane furnace at my transmitter site. Goes into a tray that is interl...

These are rectangular plugs--the 15 pin about 1" by 1/2" with a 3X5 pin arrangement, 3X4 in the case of the 12 pin connectors used in the R-60 console. The plug is about 3/4" high. The plugs have "wings" on the long sides that lock with the headers on the console motherboard. The headers have pins, ...

Eureka! I knew I had this somewhere. Yes, appears these things are still available. The R-60 uses 12 pin shells, the Auditronics 2500 (I have several of these in use) --use 15 pin shells. The "male" pins are on the motherboard headers, the "female" pins are used in the plugs. Here are the part numbe...

Mouser used to have these shells and pins, but I can't find them on-line. May be obsolete. I may have a bag of pins with a Mouser number--will check tomorrow. I remember answering this same question on this board not long ago--but can't find it. Alternative may be to call Wheatstone & see if anyone ...

To elaborate further, 300 to 3000 hz is in the audio frequency range. Transmission facilities have been built in this range, but were not very efficient due to the length of a wavelength at these frequencies: (from Wikipedia article on extremely low frequency--ELF Rf transmission: "The US maintained...

On the Ebay stuff I automatically replaced the caps.

Another device is the Henry Engineering USDA 2x4 Utility Summing & Distribution Amplifier. Couple on E-Bay for various prices. Stereo in, either two separate stereo outputs or mono outputs. Not impressed by audio fidelity (I have a couple of these--use them to mix the outputs of our STORQ automation...

Most listening nowadays is done in the car. Go to your local mall and do an informal survey of the car radio antennas....

Well, it might work as a power transformer, but not much good for anything above 60 hz. Put another way, shove enough RF into it, and it will radiate. Not very well or very far, but it will radiate. So will a dummy load, except the transmitter is less likely to either shut down or melt down. Wavelen...

Had a similar problem in building a new LPFM. VS300, combination of flex line and regular 1/2". Everything looked good--but high VSWR. Tower climber (also a ham) asked--what frequency is this station on? Me: 96.3 He: The antenna is marked 93.1. If you could borrow another transmitter or even an exci...

Look at the Scala HDCA-5CP/RM, which is a 5 element circularly-polarized yagi. There are two smaller models as well, all rated for 250 watts.

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.... Local cluster uses a server based automation system for all of the stations. Story around town that a fired employee got back in on a weekend and pulled the plug on the server.....no-one noticed until Monday morning! We mostly use refurb ...

Yes, I've met him. Seems very well plugged in to the community.

Big difference between markets 100 and up and 100 and below. My example of Morgantown/Fairmont/Clartksburg--market 174. 21 commercial stations, 15 AM and 6 FM with viable signals in the market. The WV Radio/AJG (trust) combination owns 9 FM's and 2 AM's in the market--including all but one of the Cl...
