Hi All,
I hve almost all the parts for building up a HBR-16 receiver except the IF 
cans. Does any one have any that will work for sale?
I believe the original cans were 125 KHZ padded to 100 KHZ.
I have a set of NOS 455 KHZ cans in the old big cases like the origional 
ones. But rewinding them to 100 KHZ  will be a real job.
Thanks,
Bob KG5JL

Hi Brian,

Take a look at Lloyd's site (KK7IZ). He has info on a coil winder he built,
and a Meissner
construction handbook that has detailed IFT information.

Keith,

Yes, I have sucessfully wound some I.F. coils .. but
I'll need to find the
photographs.? They were on my old server
and are now gone :-(

It was for an AM radio project
though.? My concern would be getting the
coupling correct for
something as critical as the HBR-16.

Most 455kHz IFTs that I've measured show up as about 1.3mH (this is measured
at a
test frequency significantly below 455kHz, so the effect of the tuning
capacitors is
negligible).

If the tuning caps are also scaled proportionately (anyone know if they
are?), I would
expect 120kHz IFTs to have inductances of around 5mH.

You can also test unknown IFTs as follows:
  - identify pairs of windings (ohmmeter)
  - apply signal generator to one pair of windings
  - apply scope (or AC VM) to the other pair
  - tune signal generator, look for peak (start at low frequency and work
up)
  - switch windings

Regular IFTs will show similar behavior with the windings swapped. 'Output'
IFTs
will show a resonance only when connected with the tuned winding to the
scope
or AC VM.

Since nearly all IF cans have the capacitors inside, it's really a resonance you are looking for. The easiest way to check this is run a signal generator into the input and measure the output with a scope ....the signal should substantially increase at resonance. You can also tune the slugs/trimmers to see the frequency effect, bandwidth, etc.

I drew a name from those interested in buying it and the HBR-16 will be going to George Heron, N2APB of this HBR Reflector.

Dear amigo Kees:
While re-organizing my garage,I was pleasently surprised to see the three
Hammarlund tandem connected capacitors that used to be part of my 
sorrily defunct HBR-14
receiver.
I remember it had a 1675 kiloHertz quartz crystal for the second 
conversion frequency
of 1600 kiloHertz... the second IF was 75 kiloHertz... maybe I will find 
the Millen 100 kHz
IF transformers that were padded down with extra capacity to work on 75 
kHz...
Sad to say, I took apart the radio to salvage the parts in order to make 
a 40 meters
band transceiver .... What a big mistake amigo !!!
Anyway, as I plan to retire pretty soon, and the three tuning capacitors 
for the RF
stage,the mixer and the first local oscillator are now ready to be 
cleaned and re-used
I now must find the HBR 14 's circuit diagram and start looking for the 
parts.
Got plenty of vacuum tubes, and I have not forgotten how to wind and rewind
power and audio transformers for tube equipment !!!
Keep up the good work with the HBR's Heritage Keith !!!

Message-ID: <c27.731c42c7.3855ba2d@aol.com>

Hello HBR Reflector:
 
I am looking for the Miller 1461BS or 2102 three gang tuning cap for the  
HBR (but not the original 1461, got one of those).  While I'd be glad to  pay 
for one, I have quite a few HBR component items that I could offer in  
trade as well.
 
I also have need of the six pin Amphenol coil forms.
