    A great review of a great little gizmo! I bought mine about 10 years ago, and my speed went from 5WPM to 20WPM in less than two months. I played with it every night trying to copy/translate off the air, and it's "touch and go" with that process... You really need a solid station to decode well enough. BUT (that's a big but) this also was part of my learning process! I set it 20WPM and left it there, only changing the SPACING. As I sent and copied, I learned the "SOUND" of each letter. As I improved over the course of that two months, I decreased the SPACING to 20WPM also! I could not have done this without this little gadget! It was indispensable. I don't use mine anymore because i don't need to, and haven't for years. But I still have it and will never sell it. I consider it a valued heirloom for what it has done for me!

    I have an 8 million serial 940s whose 17 IF transformers lost capacity and I had to add capacitors behind all the transformers with 27pf to 220pf and success to make it work again. But I still can't fix the power drive TX signal which slowly continues to decrease to 50% since radio turning it on, which problem will disappear if I blow fresh air around on the 3rd TX mixer in the RF unit, has anyone experienced this? Please help me because I'm really almost giving up

    too bad you weren't able to focus in on the R-820's front panel better, I would have liked to learn a little about its various function controls. Also would have liked to hear a tiny bit more from each station you tuned in. Would you buy another one of these receivers? What is your go-to receiver now for best selectivity, sensitivity, and notch filtering? Trying to figure out if one of these Kenwoods is a better way to go than a classic Hammarlund etc. for pulling intelligible signals out of the ether.

    I got mine in operational mint condition, very clean inside and out with just a few barely visible almost unnoticeable scuff/slide marks on the top of the cabinet and a bad unbalanced foot I can later replace. No technical glitches or problems as of yet. It was advertised with an extensive list of lab testing and alignments with everything spot on frequency. It does pretty good on receive between un-tuned antennas, sometimes SDR shines through better on a long wire, and sometimes my CB antenna does better depending on natures conditions, even while trying to reduce computer/USB, solar inverter and other noise sources. Didn't come with a microphone but later ordered one along with all three Gordon West Tech General, Extra study guides. I'm a former tech + class from the mid-90's having done all VHF/UHF/Packet BBS, APRS, etc. modes. I even got one of those custom dust covers with the 940 Model number on it, as well as for my fully 10-12 meters RCI 2995 DXCF. Shipped from Japan, unknown if it belonged to a silent key, but its in equally good hands now. The only mod on it was the battery to a no solder clip slide in and out battery holder. The only anomaly was when I took the cover off and one of the meter lights went out. After ordering replacement lights I opened it up again to replace the light and it suddenly flickered back on, so I keep the lights stored in the memory switch and VOX compartment. From Ebay to Bay, it sailed across the airwaves of the Pacific.

However a simple thing like a tube forced in that bent a pin over, of the non working one, and now its ok again. I am looking for two things that maybe you can help me with, as you have lots of old ft101zd lol. No1 is a premix local unit pb-1965 complete with components.
