Seeking an enclosure that looks like this from the side: +--- | \ | \ | \ | | +-------+ Think of a meter case, terminals on top, meter face and range-selecting knob on top. Where may I find such things? Steel, aluminium, ABS will do. -- "He who will not reason is a bigot; he who cannot is a fool; he who dares not is a slave." - Sir William Dru...

I'm thinking of making http://www.arrl.org/files/file/QST/This%20Month%20in%20QST/August%202014/JULSTROM.pdf. Any thoughts about where I can get the 7984 valve? -- "He who will not reason is a bigot; he who cannot is a fool; he who dares not is a slave." - Sir William Drummond

Having a hard time finding something that isn't rocket science. I thought that since it takes shielded wires to get the current necessary to run electronic items, it would loosely be related. :-) I want to know the current carrying capacity of shielded wire by the wire gauge for runs of less than 25 feet. I found this. https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/wire-gauges-d_419.html Any re...

I bought one of these a while back, but the manual had nothing covering how to use the hot air rework station. Is there a way of getting instructions on using it? I think several companies make the same model. https://www.amazon.com/TXINLEI-898D-Soldering-Tweezers-Desoldering/dp/B07G7BH4HY/ref=sr_1_3?keyw ords=898d&qid=1562950172&s=gateway&sr=8-3 Is that what I would use to remove a sw

I am trying to diagnose why the door chime no longer works. The receiving unit sounds the various melodies. The battery voltage is ok. I have thoroughly cleaned the circuit board. The led lights up when the switch is pressed. Any other things to try next? Thanks. https://imgur.com/a/cZH4n5U

I plan on selling a 9 lb. Yamaha transformer on Ebay. The box I have is rated at 29 lbs per inch for the edge crush test. Do I need to send it in a wood enclosure? If that thing is dropped, it could break a foot. Thanks, Andy

Is 26 gauge hookup wire ok for my circuit board ? I am using PCB boards. I think the holes are the standard width apart.

The aaa alkaline batteries went out on my tv remote. I decided to use my NiMh UBL aaa batteries. 1100 mAh. They are currently showing 1.31 volts. And they work ok in the remote as is. My charger is the manual type. It charges that type at 150 mA. I want them fully charged since they are 1.2 volts versus 1.50 for the alkaline. I would like to know how much longer to charge them...

My workshop stuff includes many unused phone cables, discarded when their respective phones were replaced over the years. I'd like to use these for general wiring around the house/garden/garage/workshop. Can anyone recommend a cheap socket to make interfacing easier please? With breakout leads to either plain (and thicker) wire ends or screw blocks or similar? Terry, East Grinstead, UK
