Tu transformador se puede <OK>, pero la radio trabaje a 60 Hz, y su corriente es 50 Hz, asi la transformador en la radio tal vez va a estar calor. En los modelos "Zenith", la transformador es debil, asi tienes caution. (Espero que mi espanol es bastante bueno para comprender.  )

For the rest of us who would like to attempt to follow along, I give you the following translations courtesy of Bing Translator (no, I do not speak Spanish either):

A greeting. BrendaAnnD Wrote:Your transformer can be <OK>, but the radio work at 60 Hz, and its current is 50 Hz, the transformer on the radio so maybe I'll be heat. In the "Zenith" models, the transformer is weak, so have caution. (I hope that my Spanish is good enough to understand. )
(I think the translator meant to say "could be heat" instead of "I'll be heat"?)

Ron,
The error was mine (this is what happens when one tries to think in two languages at 1 o'clock in the morning. I meant to type "va a estar" (it will be) rather than "voy a estar" (I will be). It is being corrected. I'm hoping that someone on the Phorum is a bit better at translation than I am.  The online translators are misleading/confusing at best, worse than worthless at times. God help us if diplomats ever start using them. It was many times easier to read his direct Spanish than that horrid translation.

BTW, I'll try to remember, if I'm in a thread like this, to post in both English and Spanish as a courtesy to the other Phorum members (and as a quality check for MY translation!)

It is very nice that people go out of their way to help others, in any language!
This is a good place to be for radio no matter what brand or where you are.
