[IRCA] SRF-59 Tech Trio Thanks You All

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,
 
     Because of some superb investigative work by Kevin  Schanilec and 
others, the SRF-59 Tech Trio (Steve Ratzlaff, Nick Hall-Patch  and myself) now have 
full documentation not only on the SRF-59, but on  the SRF-T615 and other 
Ultralight models.
 
     The availability of a full service manual on the  SRF-59 greatly helps 
us to align models to peak efficiency, to set up repair  doctrines for faulty 
components, and come closer to "cracking the code"  on  Sony's phenomenal 
30-pin CXA-1129 IC.
 
     Fortunately, true problems with new SRF-59 units  have been very rare, 
but Kevin, in his great generosity, provided us with  a genuine turkey model 
last week, the first actually defective unit  that we have heard (or seen) of 
yet in the IRCA SRF-59 Boom.
 
     The turkey SRF-59 was about to be donated  to Ultralight Science, but 
since the service manual arrived shortly before  dispatch of the turkey, this 
ex-Navy tech suddenly realized that a total  turkey SRF-59 was a great match for 
a full service manual... and its life was  spared.  It may yet soar to the 
heights of ultra-thrilling Ultralight TP  DXing...
 
                                                                              
                   73,   Gary
