I purchased Alinco DJ-191T, I wanted to register it. But it operates in the range from 130 MHz to 174 MHz, both for reception and transmission. Gossvyaznadzor will misunderstand this. It is required to drive the station into the range of 144-146 MHz. How to do it? In general, this device (like almost all bourgeois ones) operates in two modes: closed and open. For most stations, this is done by poking a jumper, removing a wire or piece (usually a diode). My Alinco does this with a programmer. I assembled the ERW-4 cable, launched the program, set the parameters and wired up the station. The scheme and the program can be taken on the “site of the Kuban radio amateurs”. The closed station began to work from 144 MHz, but up to 148 MHz. Won't go. Wrong letter at the end. For use by radio amateurs in Russia, only stations of this type with the letter “E” at the end are suitable. What to do?

In general, for decent devices, the model changes with the presence / absence of a jumper, diode, resistor. After all, the bourgeois will not develop a different processor, a printed circuit board for each model. Alinco DJ-191 is no exception. We look at the diagram, in its corner there is a small plate:

So, to translate “T” into “E”, you need to solder 3 resistors and remove the wire.

Let's look at the diagram.

We found these resistors. We disconnect the battery, antenna, turn out 4 bolts from the back cover. I hope you know what you're doing, it could void your warranty on the station and put it out of action by your inept actions. The most zapadlo that the details on the board are not signed. We look where the track from the 14th output of the processor goes. It goes into a cluster of resistors located under IC1 (EEPROM), one of them is not soldered and one mounting pad is called to ground. This is R84. Tracing 9 of the processor output does not give anything, the track goes under the processor. We are looking for J1, it is signed and located between the processor and the F-PTT-TB-Moni buttons. To the left below it is a group of resistors and there are two empty spaces. These are R79 (one platform is called to ground) and R1008 (it is called in parallel with J1). Resistors can be found in another way. We are looking for empty mounting sites (there are 6 of them), we select those in which one site calls to the ground, these are R79 and R84 (there is also R77). Then we call the second platform on the processor output: 14 for R84 and 9 for R79. We are also looking for R1008, put an ohmmeter on the 9th output of the processor and look for an empty area, the second area should call to ground through R60 at 47 kilo-ohms.

We solder two resistors of 1 kiloohm, they say “102”. R1008 is a jumper (resistance 0 ohm, inscription “0”) and is connected in parallel with J1, so we will not solder it. It is a very laborious operation to solder resistors for surface mounting. You put it on the pads, previously lubricated with rosin flux, it sticks. But the resistor must be held (best with a long nail on the index finger of the left hand), otherwise it will move during soldering. I solder with an ordinary 25-watt soldering iron, the very tip of the tip.

Everything, we assemble the station and turn on the power. There is no need to do a general reset of the station. You can go to Gossvyaznadzor.

Transparent hint: the processor still has conclusions signed by BP. And then there is Alinco DJ-491, which operates in the 430 MHz band, and, as I think, they have the same processor boards. But it’s not worth experimenting, the synthesizer will not be able to overtake the VCO and there will be no PLL synchronization, and if you press PTT, then the consequences are not predictable.

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges.

Random news from the Archive Innovative silicon supercapacitor 19.11.2013 The innovative supercapacitor design, created by material scientists at Vanderbilt University (USA) under the guidance of Assistant Professor Cary Pint, makes it possible to create photovoltaic cells capable of generating electricity around the clock and not only when the sun is shining. It is claimed to be the first supercapacitor made entirely from silicon and along with the microelectronic circuit it powers. And it can be used in built-in mobile phone batteries that charge in seconds and last for weeks between charges. Scientists believe it will be possible to build batteries from the excess silicon found in today's photovoltaic cells, sensors, mobile phones and many other electromechanical devices, reducing the cost of these devices. "If you ask people to make a supercapacitor out of silicon, they'll tell you it's a crazy idea," said Carey Pint, an assistant professor in the department of mechanical engineering who led the study. "But we've discovered a simple way to do it." Instead of storing energy in chemical reactions, as batteries do, supercapacitors store energy by collecting ions on the surface of a porous material. As a result, they have the ability to charge and discharge in minutes rather than hours, and last for several million cycles rather than the thousands of cycles that batteries can. These properties have enabled supercapacitors made from activated carbon to capture several niche markets, such as storing the energy generated by regenerative braking systems in buses and electric vehicles and providing the surge current needed to regulate the blades of giant wind turbines as wind conditions change. Supercapacitors still lag behind lithium-ion batteries in terms of specific capacity, so they are still too bulky to power most consumer devices. However, they are developing rapidly. "Building high-performance functional devices from nanoscale building blocks with any level of control proved to be quite a challenge. And once it was done, it proved difficult to repeat," explained Assistant Professor Cary Pint. “Despite the excellent performance of the device that we got, our goal was not to create devices with record parameters,” Pint said. “The goal was to develop methods for creating integrated energy storage. Silicon is an ideal material to work with, because it is the basis for many modern technologies and devices. In addition, most of the silicon in existing devices remains unused due to the fact that it is very expensive and unprofitable to produce thin silicon substrates." Pint's group is now using this approach to create an energy store that could be formed in excess material or on the back of photocells and sensors. Supercapacitors could store excess electricity generated by photovoltaic cells during the day and release it during peak hours in the evening.
