Good Morning All, sorry about the long e-mail! Just joined the group so thought I would start things off with a brief introduction and a few questions. I am...
Welcome Mr.Parker. Have you joined the Yahoo! group "Enigma2000" yet? Frequencies and schedules of many numbers stations can be found there. Best of luck, ...
You can't beat a good dipole ... don't spend £70 on an antenna, just get a dipole up there and feed it with some RG-58, make it as long as you can (say 60ft...
Hi all,it's good to know theres a group for this machine.Been using a Sangean 803A for a few years now,but it developed its own personality (changing freq. for...
The following is in response to a private e-mail from Ivan: 1. BFO alignment: If you have confirmed that the error in one of the SSB modes is consistent...
Hi Richard, In answer to your questions at the end of your message: 1. Parts for mods a) kits - only ones I am aware of are from Kiwa for replacement AM filter...
Hi Richard, The best place for parts is a company called Sycom on 01372372587 the guy's name is Robin he is semi retired so is only open onTuesday and Thursday...
Hi Tom: I'd like to add a few comments, if I may (sorry, I'm still trying to figure out the best way to trim the messages). Item 3B, below: On my test bench, I...
True, the Dx-394 has a LPF on the Lo-Z input but some have experienced VHF images in spite of it when in close proximity to VHF-FM broadcasters so an outboard...
yep, i guess so, since with the 5 pole filter you're only going to be about 40db down in the FM band - with the external filter that takes it to 70db down - a...
Greetings, I have been thinking I might like to own a DX394 for a few months now. I haven't been able to justify another radio until now. I am becoming...
Hi to all group members, I have had a pre-loved DX394 for about a month now, and have been evaluating its performance and doing some of the published...
Nice collection of radios, NEO. I'm afraid the DX-394 is mostly SMD but not the highest density stuff which makes it still quite practicable to work on....
Hi Eric, I assume that the attenuation you describe is the comparative S readings when the same antenna is connected alternately to the Lo-Z and Hi-Z inputs....
Tom, Thanks for your prompt and considered reply. It makes good sense, the only doubt I have is whether my antenna actually has such a high impedance - it is a...
Has the ferrite rod antenna been removed? If so, there is nolonger any deliberate coupling between the Lo-Z input and the RF amp but the Hi-Z input remains...
Thanks for the response Tom. I recognize you as a plankowner of the Synch_AM group. And yes, it looks like the density is not so high. I have worked with SMD...
... any deliberate coupling between the Lo-Z input and the RF amp but the Hi-Z input remains connected. ... legnth with #24 ct .One end to the low z ,other to...
Here's the link from the Master Index of Mods to Bill Beamon's clever and simple conversion: IF: EASY TAP/BUFFERED OUTPUT OF 2nd IF FOR CASCADED RADIOS OR ...
... What's the question? Why it worked on LW/MW and not on HF? Seems an odd setup but if it cuts the mustard for you, then why not! Did it work any better than...
Hello! Can anybody send me as file or give me a link to a clearer and more understandable copy of the DX-394 Printed Circuit Board, as the one given in...
Although on a big enlargement the text becomes little blurred,I looked and at the lower size,its entirely readable. ... From: "Ivan" <i_penev@...> To:...
... experienced VHF images in spite of it when in close proximity to VHF- FM broadcasters so an outboard filter is necessary in some cases. ... Hi Tom, I have...
I would not think that shielding makes much difference for VHF image suppression because the more direct problem is the VHF energy making its way via the...
