| - | ====== Reduce Popping on CW on the Argosy II ====== | ||
| - | **From Ten Tec Refector July 1, 1998** | ||
| - | I just procured an Argosy-II a couple of weeks ago and tried using it on CW. The full QSK that is so nice on the Argonaut, Corsair and Omnis, has an annoying "pop" on the Argosy. | ||
| - | |||
| - | After looking through some ARRL Hints and Kinks, I found a mod that replaces the stock 1 mfd cap at C-40 on the IF board with a 10 mfd 16 volt electrolytic. This slows down the AGC recovery and reduces or eliminates the "popping" encountered when using CW on the Argosy. | ||
| - | |||
| - | I performed that mod this evening (took about 15 mintues) and boy, what a difference! My Argosy-II is now fun to use on CW. | ||
