I’ve been a massive fan of commercial gear on the ham bands ever since I got my license about 25 years ago and I have to say the tait tm8200 is probably the best commercial radio I’ve ever had for 2m vhf. I have 2 of them and absolutely love them. I also noted you mentioned you have a few mics for them, I’m looking for a couple. If you fancy getting some beer tokens for them feel free to drop me a pm.
Thanks Peter and Andy for the QSO on Tuesday. Licensed 44 years, and you two are the first Aeronautical Mobiles in the logbook. 73, Mike G4KFK, Bracknell
Dear Peter, thank you very much !! Made the mod and figured out that 14,00 V is possible but not recomended: becomes unstable, shuts off under load, doesnt start under load etc. looks like 14,05 V is the shut off level. wonder what is the function ofe the 2 other pots, couldnt figure out... maybe sombody knows ...... all in all your value 20k is the best ! Thanks again !!
Works perfectly. For those hams out there. Don't go buying flashy expensive powersupplys. These are better than most. And do the job. Low noise for a Switching supply. I'm so happy I got two. That's about 40 dollars for both.
I’m sorry if mentioned in the video- got lost in all the tech 😂 is there a way to reset them to factory or delete the channels? Without the computer software?
I'm a hf guy so vhf uhf stuff I havnt played with much so excuse me if iv got this wrong so hears the use case followed by question...i ish to comunbetween me and my brother and we live in an area with no line of sight or repeter in reach if I were to get 2 of these 1 for me 1 for him can we make a 1 to 1 link between us useing our handies to talk to the nodes through Internet I think that's how this works what I'm unsure on is it to use these to link to repeters or can we go directly to each other through these nodes and over the net
4 layer PCB....not too smart to drill holes for "nuts and bolts". It has been shown that this contributes to failure of this power supply. Soldering to the large positive and negative pads is a better idea.
i have the pd14. i can get the voltage to 13.8v but its very unstable. especialy when i connect a load. the OVP or OCP kicks in and i need to unplug the psu. how can i modify the protection to be higher?
I just did this mod to one of my '...PD18', and I used a 22.0k resistor. This mod with this value of resistor changed the output voltage from (measured) 12.5 to 13.4 volts, without adjustment. I left it there as it's close enough, and I wish to avoid any trouble. I *just* used it to power a 100 watt HF transmitter and it worked fine. Thank you for the information.
Thanks Peter, great video. Do you know where I can get the programming software please? I have a TM8200 and I would like to remove the channels that are in it and re-purpose it. I am sure I can make a lead from guides on line. Many thanks for you informative video.
Peter can jou tel me what the login and pasword are because I can't login in the Rasberry of me Micro Node because i want to start using this app node remote for allstar nodes and need the login an pasword

Hi , you set that the blue model HSTNS-PL14 has a web page which describes how to mod. voltage. I could not find it, would you point me in right direction please ?
Hello, I have a HSTNS-PD14, this mod doesn't work for me, I think it's the overvoltage protection, how do I set the overvoltage protection? If I solder in a 20 or 22k resistor, it immediately recognizes the higher voltage.
i use these for mining. 1200w ones are being sold for £80 but these are a tenner. So if I can do this mod it will give me how many watts output here in UK safely?
@@wowzande I'm not 100% sure when it comes to wiring them in parallel, but I think it involves connecting the load sharing pins (not sure where they are, you could probably find it on a forum post). But sheesh, 2800w? I'm only bumping like 2-300 and that enough for me 😂
I will never run the subwoofers at full power. Iongevity . It will use maybe volumio with a raspberry pi? I design the box and everything else, truck line it.. Make it a fit a good spot in the house. I wanna go big! Hopefully not to ever trip my circuit breaker but I'm sure it will
