I may be getting paranoid, but there have been no postings since 20th May, and I am wondering if this board is working correctly. In order to restore my...
... Chris It has been quiet. I notice a bit less activity on the website too. Not sure why. I havent posted much new stuff in May. Perhaps it is the time of...
Chris I think lists go up and down depending on the topics raised. Looking back on my mathematical studies many years ago, I think this is an example of a well...
I wonder if there is anyone out there who has any information on where I can obtain a point to point diagram of the components and wiring of the 840C...
There is a copy of the 840C instruction manual with a circuit diagram on the Eddystone User Group Web site www.eddystoneusgergroup.org.uk in the Service...
Yes, but the manual does not contain a 'point to point' diagram of the component layout and wiring, which I think is what is being asked for in order to...
Hi Ron, I suggested something like this some time ago and Chris agreed to set up a section of the EUG site for this purpose (I was supposed to start it off by ...
Hi Gerry, I had a momentary brain freeze. I got the EUG site and the forum confused. The pictures on the forum are pretty good. There are some pretty poor...
I am more than happy to start a section of internal views for the purpose that Ron and Gerry are suggesting. The more information the merrier. I suggest that...
Hi Guys, Currently on eBay there's a nice EC10 Mk II which says: 'Also there are ammendment sheets for later modifications to the EC10 and a template for...
Hi All, I am looking to purchase my first Eddystone receiver. I currently use a Racal RA.17 MKII and a Hallicrafters SX-110 which I have electrically restored....
Has to be the 830, Ian, the last and best of the valved Eddystones. There were several variants (see QRG), but the most common is the 830/7; even they are...
I was also very curious about this when I saw it on ebay. Anyone out there know any of the details on this? Best regards, Ron Curtis Fort Worth, Texas USA ...
Hi, I seem to remember something about this years ago, I seem to recall that the grommet above the aerial socket was used to attach the clip holding the...
Hi Anthony, I will keep my eyes peeled for an 830 then. I'd rather buy an unmolested one so that I can have the satisfaction of replacing the capacitors and...
I found some interesting information in a copy of the EC10 manual supplement, which deals with the EC10 Mk II. The EC10 part of the manual has been issued in...
Yes, absolutely right, Peter - I had never noticed that before, on the first page of the supplement, too ! Presumably it just plugs into the aerial socket and...
Hi Chris, I have been experimenting with taking pictures and sizing them, and I have some that I would like you to look at. They are all of the BFO section on...
Hi All, Good news I've had an e-mail from the seller of the EC10MkII on Ebay, He's going to get the papers scanned in and e-mail them to me! Regards Amanda...
The other sets which seem good on ssb are the 730 and the 940, these are less expensive and, partic. in the case of the 730, more common. This was used by the...
Dear Graeme, I hope you are well this very wet June. I have just finished my 4.2 litre FHC E-Type restoration and so am getting back to my Eddystone interest. ...
Hello Mike; many thanks for the 'mail and good hopes! Actually I'm going through a strange phase of pernicious anaemia at the moment, the cause is unclear and...
Hello Graeme, Thanks for the reply. Hope you are feeling better soon. I have determined one more fact which is that the receiver can power up showing the fault...
... up showing the fault or the fault can develop after some arbitrary time but always removable by touching the anode or grid of the second mixer with a...
Hi Joe, Yes once I touch the metal blade on the anode or grid (but more definately on the anode) the fault clears and activity hiss increases dramatically....
Hi again, Mike. It's the intermittent nature of the problem that must make it maddening! Almost sounds like the second mixer has a spurious oscillation that...
Hello Mike, I can't remember if you said that you had changed the valve, and I cannot remember which range of valves is used, but from my time as a Service...
Another comment from experience, if there are any red Hunt's capacitors, replace them. They were trouble even in almost new sets. Ron. ... From: "r388yh"...
