Dave, Chances are high that this one adjustment has corrected an error at this one frequency in the mode chosen but may have created errors at other...
Hi I wonder if anyone can please give me a little advice I have a DX 394 some time ago I noticed when tuned to say 5.680 it would not tune in it would be...
... Chris, yes C170 is part of the RC damping feeding the A/D converter for the S-meter. It's only 1u. Reply: Yes, I am aware of that. I replaced it with a...
N4GUD de N8CT If you are interested in a DX-394b with a few of the mods already done, email me at n8ct@... and we'll discuss it further. Thanks, 73 de...

Chris, yes C170 is part of the RC damping feeding the A/D converter for the S-meter. It's only 1u. I don't quite get the picture regarding S7 and weak signals...
IIRC, the AGC voltage is sent to the A/D converter for the S-meter via a RC circuit to dampen the variations. The C is an electrolytic. My bet is that it is...
"But the design itself is reasonably good for the price point they achieved and the performance is about as good as you'll find in receivers in the $100 range...
Yes, the only significant electrical difference between the A and B is the latter has the buffer. There may be other minor changes - nobody has carefully...
A very interesting and enlightening posting. My first DX 394 was a dog, even the am was lousy. The second '394 was an unmodified "B" and using the same antenna...
Just a quick observation. Many times when you buy a used radio, there's reason it's being sold. And it seems like a fair number of time they can be subtle ...
Thanks Tom! I especially appreciate the "ac6v" link. What I most like about SWL is the way I can hear about 'events' I thought I knew about and yet hear a...
... Thanks for the great discussion Tom. So the ONLY difference between the "A" and "B" is the addition of the buffer amp for additional stability? And...
Well, Norman, methinks you are an anoraknophobe. My wife and I still have orange anoraks that we bought at Blacks in London in 1973 and wore around the world....
You seem to disparage the DX-394. Why are you in this group? I love my unit. It has given me many, many hours of pleasure and has never failed in the twelve...
ok, sorry about the Jerk bit. But do any of you get the rest of it? Norman. 2009/11/19 Joseph and Mary Dubin <mjgardenia@...> ... [Non-text portions of...
Hi folks, I've been cocking an eye or two at these anorackish emails about this DX394 and that DX394 and the occasional dissmisal of any intelligent talk at...
The FAQ does describe the electrical and physical differences among the three versions but, yes, you would have to dig deeper to find out what are the...
I disagree. I have a DX-394 "A" version and it's a great radio. $80 is a very good deal if it's in good working condition and good cosmetic condition. ...
Thanks Tom for the info. The radio is like NEW and it is a Rev "A". I have read the FAQ and no where has anyone actually compared an "A" versus "B". I was...
The differences are summarized in the FAQ. $80 is a good deal if it's in good condition. They routinely go for $150. The main difference in performance for the...
I just came across a version A DX-394 for $80. Is it worth buying or should I wait and keep looking for a B version? And exactly how much better IS the B...
Thanks Tom. I'll check it out. Chris VE3MCX __________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Canada Toolbar: Search from anywhere...
