Hi everyone,
I guess it would be time to take those Ten Tec 2510B transverters out of
the closet now wouldn't it??
I have two of them and looking to pick up third for a new ham.
Nice to see this bird up.
For those of you who don't know the 2510 is an analog transverter designed
to use a 10 meter I.F. on RX to mix the 2 meter downlink to 29 Mhz. It has
a 435 Mhz uplink at, you guessed it, 435 to 435.500.
Have fun, I will.
