[HBR] Parts source

[Brian Burns]

Hello Bill,

That's excellent news! And they don't cost an arm and a leg either (:->)...

Cheers,

Brian



Hi Brian,

I have an 80/75 meter transceiver made by Dentron that uses a pair of those
reduction drives in series for 36:1 reduction - 18 turns from end to end of
the tuning range. The first 6:1 unit will multiply any backlash in the
second unit by 6 times and add it's own backlash to that. There is *NO*
backlash in the radio I have. You should be happy with them. I also did not
know they were available and I have bookmarked that web page. Thanks for
sharing it.

73,

Bill  KU8H
