Re: SX-28A Hum
I wonder about that. R-38 is shown in all three versions of the handbook I have. In the civilian S-28 and S-28A its shown as a 47K or 50K half or third watt. In both drawings there is a straight wire

Re: SX-28A Hum
Richard I just replied about that now. Your wording might be better than mine.. well not quite , you propose magnetic coupling thru the air?, I was thinking the steel chassis might couple depending on

Re: SX-28A Hum
Tom, that is good, but that choke is always zipping up and down wrt ground. Is it possible that the mounting to the chassis makes the difference. As in magnetic coupling to the power transformer? At

Re: SX-28A Hum
Hi Mike, then the question becomes which loop? They use/assume the chassis as if it has zero resistance and zero self inductance and zero mutual inductance. We just hope there was some method hidden

Re: SX-28A Hum
Once the choke is removed from the chassis can you investigate if its position makes any difference. I mean is the hum the result of an induced field from something? Also, does it make any difference

Dang ! Could you measure a leakage between the winding of the ¡°original¡± choke and it¡¯s core ?? Happy that this ¡°mystery¡± is solved ! 73, Jacques, VE2JFE in Montreal De :

Re: SX-28A Hum
Ok folks, I found the culprit ¨C that dog gone choke! I replaced it with a 4hy one from an R390A AF deck and the hum is gone. I laid it in the chassis, insulated from the circuits and wired it in
Re: SX-28A Hum
I received a direct email from a member of this reflector asking what my comments about ground loops in an amplifier chassis had to do with the SX-28 hum discussion. Sorry, I wasn¡¯t specific enough.

A couple of things: Its quite possible the SX-28 has some residual hum. I don't have one and little experience with them. The hum in the original complaint has not been described in level. Is it
