[MRCA] T-17

[ac2eu at yahoo.com]

 There also more "electronic" mods using an electret microphone.I made a stable two transistor self biasing carbon mic replacement and also a less stable but very  simple single transistor type.They both will produce clearer modulation than a NEW T-17 ever did . Carbon has very poor frequency response and they justt get worse over time.

   The Air Show and Military Rally season has started. Perhaps it is time to consider an overhaul or repair of your T-17. There are several mods for more consistent output unless you enjoy banging the T-17 on the side of the table. That black taped telephone button repair is kind of tacky.
