Anyone have any input as to using a Dentron Clipperton L on 10/11 meter either with a rci2990 or a Cobra 142 gtl and an elkin 6 tube with a variable key as a driver.
I know that I will either have to build a keying circuit for the RCI 2990 to excite the Dentron for use in the cw low power position or a simple foot switch with 1/4 RCA jack to relay on the Dentron before I key the transceiver to protect the relay in the Dentron(i.e.;relay chatter-high voltage arcing=no Bueno).
And more than likely a matching device on input side so the RCI or Cobra 142 GTL will play nice together(no input match on Dentron-not many had one only the later built versions).
Anyone ever used a similar setup with any advice would be greatly appreciated l
