Thanks guys. The reason I haven't made any progress on the deuce is prior commitments on other projects like my wife's kitchen cabinets, and a friends model A restoration. Was going to start this summer but had knee surgery and my back went out. I am looking forward to getting started. It is...
Been doing a lot of reading on Steel Soldiers and the TM's. Joined Steel Soldiers in May of 2015 when I got my Deuce. Decided I had better start my thread. She is not to bad physically, but a mess mechanically. Engine is partly tore down, the head was redone and put back on, the valve train...

Keep the snow up there, looking out the kitchen window at the Bitteroots, the snow is at 7000 feet. Have an M135, was planning on get her running this summer, but with knee operation and back went out the summer was a bust. The truck physically is in great shape but mechanically its...

Sounds like a great idea, but I live 140 miles from the nearest town of any size, which is Missoula, Mont. and 168 miles from Idaho Falls, Idaho. Don't get out of town much.
Cut my teeth on the ARC27 in the Navy. Was in VR-1 and VP-8. Both at PAX RIVER 1961 to 1965.

I downloaded the manuals from radionerds. Tried to view the schematics on the computer, turned out to be very difficult to follow schematics on computer for me being an old analog type of guy, paper schematics and manuals are the only way for me to go. Thanks for the information, I...

Thanks for the info. My cap is on X MODE, Checked the switch it was in X MODE, changed it to normal. My generator modulation was turned off. Have audio know but is very weak. Looked at my detected output on the scope and no modulation, lots of noise could be bad microphone...

Thanks for looking. Will have to keep looking for a manual on the receiver. I still have a few problems with my radio. Transmitter needs alignment, no modulation, and no audio output. The receiver is functional and the transmitter is functional. I have the manual on the transmitter so...
I am looking for the manual for the receiver section for the RT-246/524 at a reasonable price. I believe the manual is TM 11-5820-399-20, please let me know if I am correct or not. I believe the receiver in the R-442 is similar so manual TM 11-5820-409-35 would possibly work.
Thanks

Houston we have a transmitter finally, but no audio, one step at a time. About an inch from J6204 pin one the supply voltage for the filaments the wire was was pulled or cut into, not the insulation but the wire itself. Had to have been done deliberately, The wire doesn't move there and...
6200 module
It just so happens my 6200 module is inop as well. Have it on the bench checking it out. There is no filament voltage to the driver or the final. If and when I get to it I will let you know what I find. These radios are a bear to work on if you don't have replacement modules...
