    TO! Looks like you're having fun. Put all that stuff, especially that boat-anchor tuner, in the front of the trailer, and end all sway in the rear, lol. See you out there. 73 de Bill

    That's a Ramsey Electronics "Q" kit built QRP amp. Intended for very low power CW transmitters, input 1 watt to amplify up to about 10 watts. Good find. I hope it still works.

      I don't see why it wouldn't work. Looks to be in perfect condition. Now to figure out how to safely test it.

      Am I mistaken or didn't Ramsey have the transmitter kit that went with this amp? Ramsey has had some really kool kits over 40 years until closing in Jan 2016. Like watch out Heathkit! Anyone remember Dick Smith Electronics from down under?

    I started carrying an A-to-micro adapter in my shooting bag because my electronic ear pro charges with micro.
    Other than cool factor, is there a reason to use a hardware TNC vs. Direwolf?

    • @temporarilyoffline
      @temporarilyoffline  Місяць тому +2

      The pk-232 has a bunch of built in decoding modes and I think direwolf would need another piece of software that may or may not exist. Like for Amtor or Paktor.

    I have that exact MFJ TNC and the cables to hook it to my TS-520S. Also, the power brick. It's outside in the Connex box somewhere. I really wanted you to see what that HW-8 was going for that was behind the tuner that Ape bought. Would have been fun to know.

    Hi. To. I’ve just bought a condenser mic with sound card I’m looking to use it on my g90 plus I have purchased a nice headset with mic. Could you help me with names or numbers of leads connectors. The mic as a 3mm jack plug on it Thankyou. Mark.

    • @temporarilyoffline
      @temporarilyoffline  Місяць тому +3

      The G90 uses an RJ-45 connector for its microphone connection. I believe the pinout for that is in the manual. I've never tried out use a "desk mic" with the g90, good luck!
