    PIC Chip Programming

    Madcow, I too worked with the UYK 20 by Sperry Univac as a Navy Fire Control Tech. I remember well punching in data a few bits at a time. In my application the program emulated the old analog MK 47 Gun computer; gears, synchros, servos, ball and disk integrators, resolvers, tube or...

Another reason for the reduced output could be shorted turns in the copper wire windings due to a breakdown of the enamel coverings. Simply put, formerly 100 turns = 100% output. Then heat, shock, vibration...

    Garage door opener antenna problem.
