Subject: Kenwood ts-820 questions
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
HI, I have several questions regarding my Kenwood TS-820 (with
digital display) I am hoping you can all help me with this...
First, I am looking for some accesories. I don't have lots of money
so trades would be nice however I can supply cash if required..
I am looking for the following: External VFO, 2 meter transverter
and dc power adaptor. If you have any of these and want to
get rid of them please let me know.
I would also like to know where to get replacement output tubes for
this radio. Considering its age, I figure it would be a good idea to
get a few while the getting is good. What type of tubes does this
radio use? What brand/type would make the best replacement?
Now for some tech stuff..
I would like to know how to control the power output of the radio
during vocie transmission. I know how to on CW (Just reduce car) but
I don't know the proper way to do this on voice.
My radio does not seem to put out its full rated 200 watts. Any
ideas on this or any way to test it. It is possible that my MFJ d
eluxe versa tuner II power meter may be innacurate. I have been
told not to trust the readings on these meters.
I have a Cmos super keyer II which is NOT compatable with the negative
switching on the Kenwood. For any of you that have this problem, I have
found a simple fix, here it is.
1. remove the phono plug from the end of your keyer cable.
2. Reverse the wires, soldering the origonal center wire to the outer
connector of the plug.
3. To the center plug insert a resistor whos value is high enough
to reduce the voltage presented to the keyer terminals (use a VOM
and voltage divider equation) I used the higest possible value
that still allowed the keyer to make the radio transmit.
4. Solder the remaining wire to the other end of this resistor.
5. Attach a diode across the terminals. This protects the keyer
transistor from any potential spikes from the transmitter. (got
this from the Art of Electronics)
6. Thats all there is to it. I placed the resistor and diode right
in the case for the phono plug. Use some heat shrink for short
protection.
This seems to work fine and has not melted my keyer yet. If
anyone has any comments on this or improvements please let me
know.
Finaly, I would like to build a field strength meter. I was thinking
that an opamp based circuit would be ideal for this. If anyone
can help me with this I would appreciate it. I know I could buy one
cheaply, but I would like to build my own.
Thanks in advance for any comments or suggestions. Please email your
answers to lvin@cosmic.physics.utah.edu
I will summarize all responces.
Thanks again
Chris (KB7YOU)

:-) As long as the lights don't dim (too much) when you key the transmitter,
:-) aren't you operating QRP?

On Sunday, 12 December 1993, the Pasadena Radio Club will field a special
event station to celebrate the rebuilding of the beautiful 80 year old
Colorado Street Bridge over the Arroyo Seco just south of the Rose Bowl.
The station will be active from 10:00 a.m. PST (1800 UTC) to 4:00 p.m. PST
(2400 UTC) on three bands:
21.335 MHz (+/-)
14.260 MHz (+/-)
147.150 MHz repeater (W6VIO) (+600 KHz, PL 131.8)

I ENJOYED reading Myron's posting.
Scratchi was previously totally unknown to me, so I just read what was
there.
I interpreted it as a commentry on the different interests and
viewpoints of different generations. It said that two different
generations do not understand each other, and can fail to predict this.
It did not seem to attack either generation.
I thought there was a strong element of lampooning old fashioned
stereotype characterisation.
Perhaps Myron's parody is a little too subtle for everyone to
recognise it ? Even if he now states his intent, no matter what that
intent was, not everyone will believe him. We will never know with
certainty.
Foreigners and children have the ability to see things, and ask
questions that are too fundamental for others to notice (or dare)
Cheers

Subject : Re: Scratchi, January, 1960
Just to point out that the Scratchi column was controversial during the
time it was being published too. I distinctly remember an exchange of
letters to the editor arguing over the point.
Anyone remember the "Heinrich Schnibble" items from Saturday Evening Pest of
the same period?
