The Hammarlund manual provides detailed instructions for the installation of electric clock timer kits for various models of Hammarlund communications receivers, including HQ-100, HQ-100A, HQ-110, HQ-110A, HQ-170, HQ-170A, HQ-145X, and HQ-180. It covers the necessary steps for setup, including wiring and soldering instructions, and offers guidance on troubleshooting potential issues related to the clock's operation with different power cycles.
Manual Overview
The Hammarlund manual provides detailed instructions for installing electric clock timer kits on specific communications receivers. The manual outlines the necessary steps for modifying receivers HQ-100, HQ-100A, HQ-110, HQ-110A, HQ-170, HQ-170A, HQ-145X, and HQ-180 to include a clock-timer. It emphasizes the importance of using the correct frequency kit for the power supply available, noting that a 50-cycle clock will run fast on a 60-cycle power supply and vice versa. The manual includes diagrams for wiring and installation, specifying the use of light repair tools and a small soldering iron with radio-grade rosin core solder. It warns against using flux and overheating connections to prevent damage. The manual also provides guidance on wiring adjustments, such as cutting wire lengths to fit and ensuring proper soldering connections. It instructs on securing the clock mechanism to the front panel and emphasizes careful handling to avoid damaging components during installation.
Quick Issues Covered
- Diagnose power-up failures in HQ-100, HQ-110, HQ-170 models.
- Calibrate clock timers for 50/60 cycle power configurations.
- Use schematics for circuit tracing in HQ-180 and HQ-145X models.

Installation / Setup
The installation of Electric Clock Timer Kits involves several steps and considerations. The kits are designed for Hammarlund Communications Receiver models HQ-100, HQ-100A, HQ-110, HQ-110A, HQ-170, HQ-170A, HQ-145X, and HQ-180. The installation can be performed by relatively inexperienced personnel using light repair tools and a small soldering iron. It is important to use radio-grade rosin core solder and avoid using fluxes or overheating connections to prevent damage to insulating materials.
Before beginning, ensure the power cord is unplugged and all wires are disconnected from the chassis terminals. The receiver should be placed face down on a clean towel to avoid damage. The cabinet is removed by unscrewing the rear screws, and for certain models, a cabinet release screw must be loosened.
Wiring involves cutting wires to appropriate lengths with some slack, and specific instructions are provided for different models. For HQ-100, HQ-100A, HQ-110, and HQ-110A, certain wires need to be unsoldered and reconnected to the clock switch terminal. The clock assembly’s wires are routed through the chassis and connected to the power line terminal strip.
The installation also requires careful handling of the clock mechanism, ensuring it is securely attached to the front panel and that the clock shaft extension is properly tightened. After completing the wiring and assembly, the receiver is reassembled, ensuring all connections are secure and no foreign matter is inside.
Clearances should be maintained to avoid contact with other components, and the cabinet is reattached by aligning it with the chassis and securing it with screws.
