[AMRadio] RME - 45/45B Info

[Ken B]

Hi Bud:

 

Just read your 45B post on AM Radio.  I'm dealing with about the same
symptoms on the RME-45B and matching speaker that I have here.  It also has
the VHF 152 Converter with it.  I got the radio from Kevin (WA2ISC) and with
it came quite a bit of documentation that I think pertains to the RME-45 or
both. I wonder if we could get together, over coffee or what ever, check the
paper work over, compare notes and between us maybe we can get these two old
classics up and running again.  What do you think?

 

73,

 

Ken / UPI

I have recently become the owner of a very nice looking RME 45 with  

matching speaker, the 4301 Sideband selector and the VHF 152A
Converter.....NOW:

 

After spending time on the inside cleaning and tube checking (several 7B7's 

 and a 7S7 are low or marginal It was apparent that what I have is a 45B

 

I brought the receiver up slowly (about 6 hours) with no pops or  smoke  

:-)......It had been idle for several years

The receiver has several problems among which are weak audio and the  only 

discernable signals were in the broadcast band.. In general the receiver  

works but needs work :-) The tuning system is quite accurate  when
frequencies 

are feed directly into the ant (at 1 Micro volt)

 

I have several pieces of documentation from BAMA (mirror site) and a poor  

copy of a Sam's for the RME 45.

but I have found this Sam's to have several part and tube  location errors 

and does not show the "45 B".

 

I need some HELP :-).....It seems as though several  of the manual sites 

have the operator and service manual for the 45 but not the  "B" .....Does 

anyone have some good information, mod's and troubleshooting  information on


the 45 B.....I would be very happy to pay for any copies and  if I knew that
a 

GOOD service manual for the 45 B was somewhere on line I  would  have no 

problem meeting their price

 

Any suggestions or info ???

 

Thanks &73
