  Hello Pedro,

thanks for the kind words for my website.
I am planning on making the pictures that are still not up ...
I am sending this e-mail to you, because my Racal-list e-mail
address has changed, so an e-mail to the list does not appear.

The schematic on the RA.17 page is only the *buffer* amplifier
used between the RA.17 and the RA.66.
For the RA.117, this drawing is not useful, because you need a
frequency changer (MA.282) to adapt the different IF frequency
of the RA.117 to the input for the RA.66.  I do not know if the
MA.282 is just a mixer and gets its injection signal from the
RA.117 or if the MA.282 is a mixer and local oscillator ... never
seen the MA.282 ... it is rare like "white ants" we say in Holland :-)

  greetz,
- Henk, PA8PDP.

By the way, feel free to forward this to the list.
