to anyone that has an R7 and does not use the AUX-7 board, you are killing
yourself !!! here are directions: http://www.dproducts.be/Drake_Museum/aux-72.htm http://home.cinci.rr.com/w8pu/aux7warc.jpg wrote in message oups.com... Mike: I have a R7 and the AUX-7 to install. Can you help me with how you wired the diodes for the SWBC bands? mike maghakian wrote: mine was a gilfer SWL special with 1.8, 2.3, 3 , 4, 6 filters when I got mine I then bought the AUX-7 board and diode programmed it for the SWBC bands. now it is a joy to operate. the few days I had it without the board almost drove me crazy. I'm running the 8, 6, 4, 3 and 2.3 kHz filters in the one I have here at present. dxAce Michigan USA |
I thought it was insane tuning the radio without the AUX-7. I still can't
imagine using the R7 daily without it. "dxAce" wrote in message ... mike maghakian wrote: to anyone that has an R7 and does not use the AUX-7 board, you are killing yourself !!! I'd have to disagree! While the AUX-7 does make it easier to tune a few SW bands, not using one does not amount to 'killing yourself'.

well, in proceeding of 1994-1995, the author, David Clark said of the AUX-7:
"this highly desirable accessory allevates the need to use the cumbersome "up/down" pushbuttons..." he also expressed surprise at how many R7's were sold without it. I guess it is people like you Mr. Lare that explain that lack of common sense that he didn't understand. by the way, you were mentioned in the article.
