The AR-1780 is the big brother of the AR-1733 which has been my go-to ultralight DXing radio for a number of years. The AR-1780 covers the AM and FM broadcast bands along with the shortwave, long wave

DeOxit is not cheap here either! We use it here mostly for scratchy pots, with the F5 formula having more lubricant compared to the D5 formula. They both remove corrosion and protect the contact

Hi Gary, I just looked on Mike's site and can not find a part with any reference to Oren Elliot. I do see this..

Dave, I looked upDeOxit D5 from Amazon UK. Almost £30.00 for 142ml. This side of the pond we pay around £10.00 for 400ml of contact cleaner, with several good brands to choose from, excluding WD40,

Looking on the Mike’s Electronics Parts web site, I see three different air variable capacitors. Is the desired part the 384 variable capacitor here:

Gary and Steve, I had noticed a difference in older vs newer Oren caps also, although I saw no physical difference between them. I tried something on the 'older' ones that seems to work to freshen

I just checked with Mike at https://www.mikeselectronicparts.com/ and he says his current caps are the latest version "0219" so I just ordered one to try. Thanks for this info, Gary. 73, Steve

Hi Steve, Thanks for running these detailed "Q" tests between the 1162/46 and 660/46 Liz wire at various frequencies with the HP4342A Q meter. This kind of detailed test is something which would not

I wound a coil using 330/46 Litz to compare with the other two. 21 turns gave 273.3 uH, quite a bit higher than the other two due to the narrower width coil. Probably 1 or 2 turns should be

I should add that my 140mm ferrite rods are Chinese rods, not Russian rods, and that the results may be different using Russian rods. I don't have enough Russian rods to do the experiment

This experiment compares a ferrite sleeve coil of 1162/46 Litz with a ferrite sleeve coil of 660/46, both 21 turns with final coil diameter about 6 3/8", using 140 mm ferrite rods in the

Thanks Gary for the detailed response. When endeavoring to obtain the highest resonant signal output at a given frequency, the Q needs to be high as practicable. The audio fidelity will be somewhat
