- MC85.1
-
- A. I couldn't work vox properly with the PC-1A because
- I couldn't null deep enough the bridge. VR1 was partly
- nulling at the far end of it's position. Adding a 1.5k ohm
- in parallel with R5 (or alternatively just changing R5 to a
- single 470 ohm resistor) brought the null to the mid-position
- of VR-1.
- B. Although the null is now centered, it was not deep
- enough. Adding on 0.1 uf disk capacitor in parallel with RF
- balanced the reactive component of the bridge, the null
- became extremely sharp!
- C. An addition of a high pass filter to the patch that
- gives the same effect as the "low cut" position on the MC-85
- microphone was "very helpful" when the PC-1A was connected to
- the SSB HF ring. The filter is simply made of a 10K ohm
- resistor and an 0.02 uf capacitor. (see it on the modified
- scheme (next month)).
- With all the changes I made to both the PC-1A and the MC-85,
- I'm most satisfied and I would very much like to hear your
- remarks (maybe published in the I.R.I. too!).
