![]() Mine was a very early 23ch and had a crystal synthesizer which cannot be upgraded to 40ch. Is it just the transistors that are getting hot or the back of the radio? If the transistors are getting a lot hotter than the case then maybe the heatsink paste and insulator have degraded over time. If the final bias is too high it will draw excessive current and heat up faster but I don't remember if there are any adjustments for that. I think they all get a little warm if you transmit a lot and if the power out is within spec about 4w AM and 12w SSB the driver and final transistor are probably ok. Its been about 45yrs since I owned one and it was purchased about 47yrs ago, so my memory is fading. Oh yea, I was 6'2", good eyesight and fair hearing then. I do know shortly after that, the marine radio division was sold to Regency. I asked about migrating to the marine radio division but no luck. I worked there to 11 months when the CEO called employees to that large lunch room, given a letter of recommendation, severance bonus, and a handshake. RF output peaking and the radio went back to assembly for the case and cosmetics. Then had to balance the SSB modulator and adjust the gain and APC. I had to choose the driver bias resistor so the last two gain stages were class AB-1 (linear) The boards were not completely stuffed, I had to choose the bias resistors for the AM modulator and install those. A mitsubishi 2SC2312 final, good for about 18 watts PEP These had the PLL board, the Kokusai SSB filters, I think were the best. What boards or sub assemblies were imported, I dont know. My cage was right off the assembly stations and those laid out for a couple products.Ībout all I recall is the 1000m was assembled in the same building. I recently went through my library and tossed out tons of old Pace manuals and schematics, I think there was a 1000B manual in the pile. Anyway its interesting to have two ex employees commenting about the Pace 1000B. Maybe we need an old Pathcom employees thread. How bout the lunch truck husband and wife team that made dynamite home made lemon meringue pies? How bout the great big 450lb guy that used to steal food off the lunch truck and the grease stained apron that he used to stick the stolen chicken wings in? Richard Blackburn, that was his name, I sold that guy a 35mm camera and he was later arrested for taking pictures of little neighborhood kids in a way that would get you arrested. Do you remember Leonard with the jacket or the guy with a Honda hatchback that blasted the parking lot with his huge speakers at break and lunchtime? How bout the old security guard at the main with the wrinkled face, forget his name but I should have a picture of him somewhere. That was 46yrs ago and although I never forget an antenna, the caddie is a little fuzzy. Commercial, Professional Radio and Personal Radio.We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. ![]() The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola). The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate just purchase it.įor M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
