    Need a hand. S-250 measurement

    79" front to rear and 75" side to side at the widest point. This is a wall to wall measurement, there are a few minor interior attachments that will make it slightly smaller in some places.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    The antenna was a 90' (each leg) dipole fed with open wire line. Tuned with a B&W VS1500A coupled to a IC7300 and Ten Tec 500 watt PA. Worked great on 80 and 40 meters. Customers and antennas do not get along, it is amazing what they can do to make them cease functioning.

    Glow Plug Relay Voltage

    Check the voltage drop across the GP relay. Then work your way back to the batteries to see if there is a place where the voltage begins to sag.

    Radio Interference Issue Solved

    No sure what that board does. I will look into it as time permits. Its spring and everyone wants tower and antenna work done. We are still finishing up jobs from last year!

    Radio Interference Issue Solved

    I just pulled the card out to ensure that the noise was emanating from the card. As time permits, I may change out a few of the parts and see if that helps any. My card was up near the parking brake mechanism to the left of the fuse block. It's in a black plastic holder.

The M1008 and M1009 are having the same issue. I'm wondering "How on earth does a mechanical diesel engine make so much RF...
