Just to let you all know - "she's alive" (said with mock gothic /Hammer House of Horror intonation) The fault was the 'Send' switch contacts - hence no HT ! A...
If by any remote chance the chap who bought EC10 II from the EUG stand at the Telford Rally is reading this, he may like to get in touch and I'll send him the...
Hi All, Having recently bought a "dead" EC10, I've spent some time on it and it now works! All 3 OC171s were faulty on the RF board. These were replaced with ...
This morning I rose early so that I could listen to the VMARS AM net on 3,615 KCs. I switched on my EC10, 840C, 870A and 730/4 and went for my daily shower...
Today I thought I'd take a look inside my recently acquired S870A. As this receiver gives such a good account of itself, I decided to do the absolute mimimum...
Can anyone help with the following questions for my newly acquired EB35 MkIII 1. The case is covered with a horrible "wood finish" plastic. Obviously the...
Hi Paul, Yes, the EB35 MkIII had a case described in the manual as '... a very strong steel cabinet and chassis as on other receivers in the EDDYSTONE range. ...
Thanks a bunch Ben for the plug, so says Ted. The net is sustained each month by the usual stalwarts with just the occasional new callsign although when Ted...
From time to time there have been articles and letters in Radcom relating to tolerance of others in amateur band operation. I am appalled that Ted has been the...

... and ... now ... be at ... to be the ... right one ... Hi Ben, I must admit that the new slug is lighter and about 1mm longer. I have no more of a...
Hi Can anyone suggest how the smaller knobs on the 1002 receivers can be removed? These knobs are attached by a collett and nut arrangement recessed into the...
Hi Simon, You could try using a box spanner to loosen the nut. The body is usually thin enough to allow access between the nut and the knob body. Hope this...
I seem to recall that a 10mm box spanner was provided as part of the accessories kits on all receivers using these knobs. It was 10mm one end and possibly...
Chris et al: just checked on my 1002: it's a 11 mm box spanner which is required here. Box spanners are being made in two ways: a) cast steel as often found in...
