Second in the series (oh god there's more to come) of what rigs were really bleed boxes in the 80's.
This is a York 863, well known (and recently sold on ebay) peaked, tuned and fully aligned by myself,
Same as before started off at S9 with CBer wide deviations, and progressed with more 'power',
then tested with correct power and deviation.
See for yourself.
test.
-73dBm or S9
deviation at 5khz.
bleedover to one channel but about S6
-43dBm or +30 same deviation,
bleedover one channel but S9 of it.!
then turned down to a conservative 2.5khz of deviation.
bleedover hardly worth mentioning, yes still one channel, but vastly reduced,
and the receive test well in to the noise, -110dBm or 1uV was just over S2 and fully workable, probably even work lower as received just at -125dBm.
so all in all, Cybernet 134 board, York, Rotel, Harrier, Major, Binatone, Cybernet, Barracuda, Sapphire and many others were never as bad as people made out,
they were only bad when the person causing the bleedover used a crappy rig, deviation and power.
next time i'll do an Anytone AT-5555/CRT-6900 as i find these are very underrated radios, and when i can find one compare them all against a Uniden 100/200 type boarded radio, as after all, everyone said the Uniden board was better for bleedover..!!
like, subscribe and tip me a few quid so i can get a mobile hairdresser in to trim my beard.!
