Double Super Hetrodyne what does this do in a CB Radio ?
"Fred W4JLE" wrote in message ... A funny story, Years ago I used to work on HAM equipment and ran a small shop out of my basement. One day a CBer showed up with a Browning radio. After repairing the fault, I noticed a design flaw. A capacitor across the B+ was on the wrong side of the transmit relay. It allowed sufficient B+ to keep the transmitter alive when the unit went to receive and caused a feedback "ping". I corrected the default in design and returned the radio to the owner. He came back mad as a wet hen because his "Browning Ping" was gone. Being the curmudgeon I am, I put in a LARGE cap extending the ping to nearly a second. I thought that would really **** him off. Sad to say I had a wave of CBers wanting me to fix their pings like the first guy. LOL! BH |
