OK, we did have a net this evening: G7HEU Steve - not on a MKARS80! G1IUG Colin M1EEL Mick And thanks to DF1KBM for vacating the frequency. We will try 9:30 AM...
Conditions were challenging to say the least. However, I can say that G6ALU, G1IVG and M1EEL were all a true 5/9 at some point - all be it briefly! I was...
Am I the only one who hss had difficulty reading the circuit. The components and connections are clear enouth but the component identy and values are...
I wish someone would re-draw the diagram. It is fuzzy and the light blue parts labels make it even worse. No program is going to correct this. The schematic...
Hi All, Reading the messages earlier today, I have made 3 files which you can print on a normal A4 printer. You tape them together and you have yourself a...
Snip... "Why in the world would anyone draw the diagram using light blue labels for parts?" The drawing conforms to a professional standard and works perfectly...
Steve; It won't matter what the color is. Right now the resolution is so bad there are not enough pixels in the file to print something clear enough to read....
Let's start with the photo file you sent out today. I find it no different then the one on the web site. I would be happy to pay someone to send me a...
I've just saved and viewed the file Steve G6ALU posted and it's fine. It's 6627 x 4277 pixels at 300dpi and is very readable, even for a jpg. Example:...
There's nothing wrong with that file. It's you. ... -- Nigel A. Gunn, 1865 El Camino Drive, Xenia, OH 45385-1115, USA. tel +1 937 825 5032 Amateur Radio...
OK, it's me. Seems odd I don't have problems with other PC files. I'll leave it at that. If there is anyone on here that could send me a nice copy of the...
OK, thanks to Steve, AA7U, I now downloaded the new schematic posts in the file section from M0TZO which were put there in the last day or so. That worked. I...
If this is the file you can view it very clearly on screen http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/radiokits/radio-related/MKARS80/MKARS80%20-%20Hi%20res%20schematic.jpg ...
You are certainly not the only one who has and is having trouble reading the diagram; neither the original nor the newest one is readable. I must have spent 20...
John, I'm sure the latest is OK, see: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/radiokits/radio-related/MKARS80/MKARS%2080%20-%20Large%20print.pdf Steve G6ALU ... From:...
The diagram problem is an interesting example of how different PCs seem to respond to the same input. I've never had a problem with any of the diagrams either...
Hi Steve etal, Yes latest diagram is much better; I can actually read the values etc. Thanks for the redo. Now I'd better get with it and build the rig hi, hi....
For those who are interested in a "Digital" alternative to a 10 turn pot for producing a varactor tuning voltage it looks as if the next issue of SPRAT may be...
Finished the MKARS80 PCB last night, got the reciever aligned and its working really well. But... Moved onto the transmitter set up. I should set R2 so the...
hi i have a howes dcs2 which i presume is the board to drive a signal meter for the howes range of kits would anyone on here think that this could be...
Jack, I think you have misunderstood my instructions, the 50mA increase is during transmit. Set your meter to read current and put the radio into transmit mode...
Now that makes MUCH more sense :o) I'll try that when i get home from work. I'm sure it'll be fine then. I had a brief on air contact last night and the...
