I do not have the manual to the dynacom 40, one may be available on eBay, which seems to be where a lot of these manuals pop up from time to time. Also, check out the CB Tricks' web site. Sometimes they have some handy manuals too. the DC40 manual should be easier to find than, say, the DC23, they were pretty common and fairly popular HTs.garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05285282320303841068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9058773251055505867.post-57571127241128296962018-05-05T10:23:12.307-07:002018-05-05T10:23:12.307-07:00Do you have service manual and schematic for this ...Do you have service manual and schematic for this Dyna com 40<br />ThanksAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03519564593717882388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9058773251055505867.post-43519147493111859652018-04-20T02:57:42.505-07:002018-04-20T02:57:42.505-07:00hi help .. i have 2 beautiful Dinacom5 both have s...hi help .. i have 2 beautiful Dinacom5 both have squeal on transmit . disconnected the microphone same. i bought all the capacitors any one know the trouble one? lots of work it would be nice if I found it . then after i put in new speakers martytaho@yahoo.com Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9058773251055505867.post-73596828975373423512017-05-22T15:09:07.627-07:002017-05-22T15:09:07.627-07:00Hello Gary.
I know your problem with Ni-Cd AA bat...Hello Gary.<br /><br />I know your problem with Ni-Cd AA batteries.<br />He deals with a bit of battery history :-).<br />In the past, AA cells were smaller, now manufacturers have used maximum size margins for the cells to have maximum capacities.<br />Old devices were not adapted to such great tolerance scales. Old AA Ni-Cd cells were 400 and 450mAh. They were about 1mm shorter.<br />Gary, there is a solution when you use AA industrial cells they will all fit properly :-).<br />They are shorter, sometimes they need to solder a tiny drop of tin or a thin plate of tin on their poles.<br /><br />Charging: According to the 24V power supply, the charging current is reportedly 50mA.<br />I have not tested this, currently lack the funds to purchase 12 AA cells.<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Arek from Poland.<br /><br />ps. I noticed that old 27Mhz portable radios - what the higher power model has less sensitive receiver :-(.<br />Lafayette dynacom 3b has a better receiver and despite having 3W input power (1 - 1.5W out) it has a wider range than dynacom 12A.<br />Midland portable devices were even worse, fatal sensitivity, particularly powerful models (2 to 5W input power).<br />It looks as if the US government limited its reach deliberately, even 5W input power, portable radio had the same range as much weaker :-(Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08434565559756377999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9058773251055505867.post-18003817778391046262016-06-29T18:02:14.104-07:002016-06-29T18:02:14.104-07:00Irsno! Thanks for your comments. As you can tell...Irsno! Thanks for your comments. As you can tell, it does take a while for me to get back to these comments. I promise to check more often. Actually, I am not used to folks making comments at all on my blog! :) <br /><br />As far as I can tell at this point, the best way to locate Walkie Talkie xtals, which in my parlance are CB xtals, third overtone, is on eBay. I check to see what it would take to have them made, and wow! Talk about expensive. But on eBay, you can find new old stock xtals for these "Bricks" for between eight to ten dollars a pair (Transmit and Receive xtals.) Make sure the receive xtal is 455 kHz lower in frequency to the transmit xtal. The Dynacoms will handle 26mHz through 29mHz without re-tuning.garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05285282320303841068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9058773251055505867.post-45606042103980272382016-04-18T15:12:48.124-07:002016-04-18T15:12:48.124-07:00Not sure if you are still monitoring this thread, ...Not sure if you are still monitoring this thread, but I have acquired a Dyna-Com 3b from a resale shop. It looks like it was manufactured yesterday! Works great too. It accepts 10 AAs. As it only has the crystals for ch 10, is there any chance of getting more crystals? lrsnohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06843028642017991060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9058773251055505867.post-49590081872733155262016-04-07T02:25:04.949-07:002016-04-07T02:25:04.949-07:00Really awesome blog.
