You are inspiring me to dig out my Viking. Got it from a friend who had it stored in a barn for many years. He sent it to me and it is in humble shape. But it's something that deserves to be brought back.

Thanks, Terry. What a blast! I felt like I was in a time machineI, Now I know what it sounded like On amateur radio From the 40s into the late 50's. I always wondered what the Globbe 500 sound like, and now I do. One tube Audio loving chicken bander.

Last time I was on AM was from the Fall River MA, W1ACT, radio club back in the early '60s on the 6m band. We had a 5el CC on top of a six (6) story building, HQ-100 (I think) w/AMECO 6m converter and a 2E26 xmtr....those were the good 'ole days.

Hahaha, this was your finest hour Terry! Absolutely great. I love having the occasional 'wobbly pop' (PBR. lol). I just bought a new Viking II to restore! Also a Hammarlund HQ-140x and a Hallicrafters SX-62A to restore, neither of which will be very good for 80 and 160 am but it's all I've got. I wish we could work each other.. but not possible: i'm in Clio. lol. Working other 'ganders is HARD! Be well you old knob spinner

The ham rally miss reminds me of something I did. A few years ago, I drove out from Detroit to Kzoo for the MARC swap meet. Get into the parking lot, and... completely empty. Yep, the event was the next weekend. Well, at least I can say I wasn't late for it. I went back out and attended it the next weekend. Ahhh, it's only wasted gas.

2 questions: 1 (parts a & b) what frequency were you operating on and can someone with a general licence get in on it? And 2 how can you fix that feedback issue?
@radioman47383 жыл бұрын
i was thinking the same thing. maybe around 3275 or 3880 am? as for the feedback a rx/tx relay might help or a speaker relay with a load resistor when in the standby position. nice to hear the quality audio and to see everyone having a good time. 73
