Bill A asked about converting a Sony ICF2010- I have never tried one, as That particular manual is not in my collection. There is nearly no room for a decoder...
Please forward to 'oldphones' or anybody that can help answer an automotive radio question: On the 1990 Chevy Trucks that have the AMS/FMS radio there is only...
I believe that I read somewhere that all you need is to bring out the 2nd audio line to the headphone jack and that all the stereo decoding is already in the...
I measured the frequency responses of many tuners capable of receiving AM stereo broadcasts. All measurements were conducted at 540kHz with "stereo wide" mode...
... Is there any way to convert this into the dB (decibel) ratings that are normally used? Normally the 0 dB level is referenced to 1 kHz. ... {snip} ... This...

A note about the ECO5 module- It is still in use in all the Philips shelf stereos. (But NOT the boomboxes anymore) The new FWR7 and FWR8 systems with built-in...

NO - give us the results for being tuned in with the SuperRadio III - being off tuned isn't such a good measurement. I could tune off frequency with many of...
... Do these have any problems with "frequency shifting" causing the stereo decoder to become "fluttery"? My boom-box has this problem, even with a separate...
... Hook your TM-152 to a nice 10-band audio graphic equalizer and it will really come to life. With good treble equalization, it can have a very nice, crisp...
The shifting in the Philips system is due to the fact that the chipset uses "fuzzy logic" in their I2C bus. The decoder has to be trimmed to be dead-nuts-on...
I know that Radio-K uses a Denon. Speaking of which, I should get in touch with their CE again and see what the deal is about returning to stereo. They were...
I think this one has already been converted to the ham bands. Not that it would be hard to put it back on the broadcast band. Unfortunately I wouldn't have...
BTW- a LOT of these smaller broadcast rigs (250W-1kW) are ending up in the hands of hams, usually for use on 160 and 80m. A few make it up to 40, but that's a...
... One local 250w daytimer uses a vintage Collins transmitter, circa late '60s. Its pair of audio modulator tubes are the same type as the pair of RF output...
800 Pounds? Yikes! And you have to pick it up in AZ? A friend of mine has WLAD's original 1927 RCA 1K transmitter- It takes up an entire wall in his basement....
800# is PEANUTS compared to some I've hauled. I've got a late 40's Collins kW that weighs 3400#. Hauling 800# from AZ would be easy; just time consuming. I...
Despite its high price and lack of AM Stereo, the Wave Radio is actually a very nice piece of equipment, but this parody was too good to pass up! ======== ...
I came across this modification for the Sony SRF-42 AM Stereo walkman and it works great. It's actually for the radio's FM band, not AM... If you've ever used...
Today my routine AM band-scan revealed what appeared to be a Stereo pilot coming from Clear Channel-owned talk station 580 WHP in Harrisburg, PA. It was...

You might want to read the articles here. Maybe you can get something from this page. I hear the Quantum Loop is quite good - especially for the money. ...
I finally did that modification to use the "guts" of a Sony SRF-42 as an AM Stereo decoder for another radio... I hooked it up to a Delco car radio and the...
I read about the switch of oldies to AM in a recent RW paper. It IS a perfect spot for them! Irv Goldstien, owner of WREF and WLAD is proud to tell me that...
Tks for info. I actually deleted the post as I thought again what I was asking was ott perhaps. It is only the Terk I was interested in or even the Pocket...
... This is a problem with pretty much *all* music formats on FM. It's just that with Oldies the narrow playlist is more obvious because there are no new hits...
