N1OOQ randolph@est.enet.dec.com I still have, and use, a Heathkit V7A constructed from a kit in 1956. Some years ago, I replaced the internal ohmmeter battery (a "C"-cell) with two, series-connected, silicon diodes providing a constant-voltage source of 1.7 volts for the internal ohmmeter supply. Also replaced the pilot light with an LED. It has 1 megohm input resistance with an additional 10M in the probe. The 10M probe resistor is switched out for a-c and resistance measurements. Calibration is relatively simple. Usually there will be two pots; one for DC-volts and the other for AC-volts. As I recall, there was no special calibration for the resistance ranges. (Considering the logarithmic "ohms" scale, calibration really isn't all that important. As you prepare to calibrate, turn the VTVM on for 24 hours, then do the calibration. Especially if you replace the tube(s), allow the unit to age (power on) for 24-48 hours before calibrating. Your "standards" for calibrating sound fine. An alternative might be comparison with a "known" meter; perhaps a digital known to be accurate. It's a neat instrument. Not 1990s technology, but certainly useable within its constraints. 73 >< Carl K8NHE ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 29 Sep 1994 17:00:25 GMT From: ihnp4.ucsd.edu!swrinde!sgiblab!sisters.cs.uoregon.edu!cs.uoregon.edu!reuter.cse.ogi.edu!netnews.nwnet.net!serval.net.wsu.edu!wsuaix.csc.wsu.edu!i9261739@network.ucsd.edu Subject: What does all call signs have been issued?

My Radio Shack either doesn't stock it or was out of stock. If anyone knows where this plug can be obtained at *reasonable* cost please let me know Thanks Tim KF8XW Akron, Ohio * Via Monalisa Gateway.
