Default Re: Common Pye PF1 RX deafness problem

I've got a calibrator in the shed but can't remember the make, even though a one sat in the workshop for years. I don't remember it ever going for cal either. It was probably just trimmed using a calibrated signal generator every now and again. The UHF base stations used with the BE470 were usually a dual bay Pye F496. A big grey and black thing with a handle at each end and normally stood on a bench. Anyway, we are hijacking this thread again. Better stop or start a new separate one about UHF handportables!
Alan.

Edit; Just remembered, I think it was made by Racal. And posts crossed with AC/HL
