Curtis 8044 keyer chip
I have been looking high and low for a Curtis 8044 (16 pin) Keyer chip. I
can't seem to find one anywhere.. Anyone have any ideas? Joe AG4QC |

Try MFJ
Company Curtis Electro Devices - see MFJ USA Products and Services COMPONENTINTEGRATED CIRCUIT; MORSE CODEKEYER; Notes Curtis 8044 and 8044ABM keyer chips are being sold by MFJ. They have a small quantity priced at $19.95. FROM URL: http://www.arrl.org/cgi-bin/tisfind?...RSE+CODE%3EKEY -- CL -- I doubt, therefore I might be ! "WildBlue" wrote in message ...

Joe AG4QC If you need a replacement the other poster gave you the details. But if you want a MUCH more powerful keyer chip, for less, try http://www.k1el.com Larry VE7EA |
Curtis 8044 keyer chip
Thanks to everyone.. I called MFJ and they didn't have a replacement chip...
This is for a 422 keyer I bought off E-Bay Of course, it was suppose to be working .. But it had a blown keyer chip.. It's on it's way back for a refund.. shrug Yeah, I used the K-10 chip in a QRP rig a while ago. They have a nice product and it's small.. Actually I have the battery version of the K-12, (using a watch battery) mounted in a mouse that I use for QRP.. Talk about cool and easy to do!... Joe AG4QC "Larry Gagnon" wrote in message om...

Joe AG4QC Well MFJ did not tell you the whole story (typical of them BTW) They do have the Curtis 8045ABM (28-pin chip) that can be adopted to the product. Some older 8044 chips (14-pin) do appear from time to time. gb |

Curtis 8044 keyer chip
I just pulled out an old keyed with that chip on it, I'm trying to fix it but if i can't give me a shout and an offer in a month or two ???
the markings on the chip are exactly below: CURTIS 8044AMB 9140 |

A quick google search brought up: http://users.ox.ac.uk/~malcolm/radio/8044print.pdf Should give you some information on the chip. No idea of where you could get one, though. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry, AI0K ================== |

I think it's another opportunist, via google groups. It sounds like he's finally going to try to get the keyer going, and if he can't, he's offering to sell the IC to the previous poster, who I guess was looking for one. Since there isn't much more involved than the IC, I'm not sure how one determines that the rest of the circuitry is at fault (but can't be fixed) but the IC isn't. But since he didn't quote the message he was replying to, and the original message must be quite old, who really knows? Michael |

Michael When it is really the IC that is defective, and can no longer be obtained, it is probably easiest to use the housing and paddle to build a new keyer based on the Arduino Nano (K3NG keyer). |

Probably wouldn't hurt to ask them. 73, Eddi ._._. Yes, that is what is written on internet. I presumed that asking over here means that MFJ no longer has them in stock either. Well, that Arduino keyer can do a lot more anyway. A friend nearby has built one and he can even connect a PC keyboard instead of the paddle, and it has memories etc. |

No, you're missing the point. Ten years ago, someone wanted to know where to get the IC. And there were suggestions, including buying from MFJ. The original poster likely is no longer interested, either giving up on the project or having found what he wanted. The guy who resurrected the thread is looking for a customer, he wants to sell his IC. SO he doesn't care about replacements, he's hoping someone will buy from him. Michael |
