Subject: 900 Mhz amateur band transmitter sources ?
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
Where can I get a 900 MHz transmitter to experiment with direction
finding etc. I am considering tearing a cell phone apart if all else
fails (and a 900 Mhz cordless as well). Interested in all power
levels (well...almost).
Thanx in advance

Hi,
I got my license when I was living in Pennsylvania and have sinced moved
to New Jersey. When I change my address, do I have to get a new call
sign as I moved from 3-land to 2-land or can I keep my KD3TR call?
Thanks,
jim, KD3TR

Subject: FM Broadcast as a freq. ref.
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
Recently Gary (I hope my memory is correct) commented that fm stations
may be assigned frequencies as much as 10 KHz away from the standard.
I have a stereo rcvr (mainly used as an amp) that displays to 50 KHz.
It has always been "off" by that much. That is, stations are tuned in for
best reception when the display reads 50 KHz away from the published freq.
There's nothing in the service manual that gives an alignment solution.
The rcvr has a pll ic and a uP control with clock and counter built in.
The manual speaks of offset diodes used depending on the color of the
ceramic filters, but the schemetic doesn't show them.
Anyone have any experience with these things to discuss this via e-mail?
This has been on the back burner for years, ignoring that digit has been
sufficient.

get them, antennas, and other general information about QRP.
please email replies if possible.

To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
I have just recently acquired a Kenwood TM-2550a with a bad display. Meaning
that only the S-meter works on it. Has anyone else had this problem, and can
it be corrected cheaply.
thanks

Your software is broken, get it fixed.

Last year I ftp'd a program that allowed a user to drill on the 5
different written elements on a Unix machine. I have since lost the
address. Does anyone know where it is?
(I am in the process of checking the usual archives ...)
