Howdy.

Thirty something years after I first slobbered on my QST at the site of a 
CX-7, one finally followed me home from a local hamfest, guaranteed not to 
work, for less than the price of an HW-100.  About my most exciting hamfest 
find since E-Bay began.

Not that it bears much resemblance to the CX-7A it started out as.  Homebuilt 
green LED display, homebuilt (I think to CX-7B spec) power supply, 4CX250 
final with outboard fan and filament transformer, and a few mods that took 
some deciphering, but it's generating 170 watts of RF and seems to be fully 
functional after only moderate aggravation.  But I do have a dozen questions 
or so if anyone would care to take a stab at 'em......

this one is SN 0779720272 - can that number be deconstructed into anything 
meaningful?

Has anyone seen documentation for the 8072 to 4CX250 conversion?

What's the difference between a Thomas manual and the original - I've got an 
original, but curious how the two manuals flange up and how they compare to 
the SN.

Anybody with a junk box have a "Spot" knob for sale? It's the only 
non-original knob on my radio,

The website mentioned in the archives is really impressive, but I can't seem 
to open several things listed (it says not available) is the CD project still 
a ways off?

Could the dark brown, extremely epoxy-like glossy paint possibly be original 
(or for that matter available)?  I'm sure its been repainted, and the only 
time I operated thought the paint was duller and more textured, but then that 
was a long, long time ago,,,,

What is the easy way to extricate the radio from the cabinet, I've already 
discovered the three hardest ways .......

There is a bit of audio distortion that seems to be AGC related - its not a 
popping kind of attack thing, but more of a ripping kind of sound anytime a 
signal kicks up the AVC - if the RF gain is backed down it goes away - and it 
takes a few minutes after initially applying power for the problem to show 
up.  It's not really objectionable, but if there are any likely suspect 
AGC-related components that are known culprits, I'd love to know - or should 
I leave well enough alone now that its generally functional?

Has anyone tried to put one of these on 17 meters?  Without sacrificing 20 or 
15?

Apologizing in advance for my boyish excitement, but I'm havinga ball, and 
was excited to track down the list  (K5MBX got me looking for it after we 
worked earlier today)............

Thanks, Scott

Scott,
I am sure that I have a Spot know. Send me your address and I will put it in

Glad you found the reflector.

Hi Frank... from what I've heard about the RARITY of the CX7S you would 
have to trade the 312B AND at least a 75S3-B to go with it. In 15 years of 
boat anchoring, I've NEVER seen a CX7S for sale. I HAVE seen plenty of 
CX7's, several CX-11's, and a couple-or so-MILSPEC 1030's. Of course, with 
ham radio declining somewhat, and lots of us dying off/etc... it's always 
worth a try!!!

Heck I'll even up the ante. I've been looking for a good working CX7 or CX7A. I'd swap a 312B-4 AND a 516F-2 Power Supply, plus throw in the 516E-2  DC Supply.

(not kidding, BTW)

Thanks for the encouragement!!

One never knows...........

Not too long ago I purchased a working Drake 1-A at an estate auction for
$1.00.

Found a collector quality Hallicrafters SX-23 w/matching speaker at another
local auction for $8.00.

No, they're not for sale either.

It really was meant as encouragement Frank... it never hurts to try. I just 
hate to see folks get grumpy when things turn out to cost (we won't get 
into "worth!!!) a lot more than was expected. A local friend was looking 
for the VLF/LF & BCB HRO-50/60 plug-ins recently... and THOSE are another 
example of that sort of thing. Always wanted a Drake 1A... gonna look hard 
the next couple of years for a 2B/2BQ in at-least-excellent original 
condition... I think that's the best I'll be able to do in that direction.

Best of luck with it.

but more to the point does anyone have the cabinet dimensions for the CX7S - 
I've got a cabinet that is the same style sitting in the junk box, and I know 
I've seen others at hamfests but passed because I didn't realize they were 
such a close match for the CX7S style ...a little brown paint and I can

Give me a reminder and I will measure my original CX7 speaker for you. I am
not at a place to do this now.

Hi Ed,

read, that you have several Milspec 1030s. I've got this radio as well since
quite some time but could it get only because the former owners weren't able
to detect it's faults. After repair and upgrade it works now very
satisfactorily. The only thing I'm missing is a complete schematic of the
power supply. I've got a good copy of the "big" manual but can't find a
schematic showing the power transformer wiring, the big electrolytics, the
interconnections of the driving transistor and the pass transistors etc. Do
you eventually have those documents or a self drawn substitute?

One special effect is remaining. If I work Vox mode, the PTT contact for my
linear is not activated. I could not detect any relationship between these
functions in the schematics. In PTT everything works fine. Any idea?

Kind regards and 73

Uli, DK4SX

Hi Frank... from what I've heard about the RARITY of the CX7S you would 
have to trade the 312B AND at least a 75S3-B to go with it. In 15 years of 
boat anchoring, I've NEVER seen a CX7S for sale. I HAVE seen plenty of 
CX7's, several CX-11's, and a couple-or so-MILSPEC 1030's. Of course, with 
ham radio declining somewhat, and lots of us dying off/etc... it's always 
worth a try!!!

Well, DUH! I now realize you all were speaking of a CX7S speaker, not 
the rig. Sometimes it takes a while to catch on.

Anyway, if anyone DOES have a CX7 or CX7A for sale, let me know.

Sorry Uli   I didn't say I HAD several, but that I had SEEN several 
(actually only 2 or 3) for sale over the years. Wish I DID have several!!!

I have an excellent CX7A on which I just completed a Year long restore
process.
It was working and clean when I got it and I took it from there.
Professionaly repainted cabinet,
with custom mixed two part epoxy paint,
new audio module, all mods which proved out really helpful, newly engraved
and treated buttons, very carefully aligned (including bandpass alignments)
to better than mfgr specs, new tube, many replaced parts.  It works
beautifully.
I am a cw op and just started checking it out on voice, and see I need a
gain
adjustment, so will have to take it out of the cab one more time.  But that
is about
it.  200 w output all bands, close to that on 10.  All changes are
documente. Hard to beat.

Anyway, I have over $1,100 in the unit not couting my labor.  I want $1,000
for it.  Have
excellent shipping materials ready to go.

Reason for selling is I have a 2nd one which needs the same treatment and
this will
motivate me to get to work on it.

Let  me know if you have any interest.

Sorry folks, I intended to send the note about my CX7A to w2agn.  I did not
intend to "advertise"over the newsgroup.

But as long as I did --  forgot to mention the unit has a cw filter.
