Title: ART-13 autotune adjustment wrench? Post by: Ac8wp on October 29, 2021, 12:21:41 AM Hello, anyone know where I can get a no 6 bristo wrench that the art 13 manual calls for? My art 13 sadly needed the number 1 mechanism removed and cleaned as the preset plates were stuck. The entire mechanism needs to be aligned minus the a and b but to do that I need the plus sign looking allen key, sorta looks like a Philips head but it's not. Any idea where I can get one?

Mgs4u I believe is his website. --Shane KD6VXI Title: Re: ART-13 autotune adjustment wrench? Post by: Ac8wp on October 29, 2021, 08:03:37 PM Max Gain sells Bristol Wrenches. Ahh, so that's why I couldn't find any. The manual must have a typo because it said bristo wrench not Bristol wrench. Mgs4u I believe is his website. --Shane KD6VXI I managed to find some on McMaster, there just 4 spline- spline wrenches. AC8WP Title: Re: ART-13 autotune adjustment wrench? Post by: KD6VXI on October 29, 2021, 08:20:22 PM I've seen them referred to as Bristo wrenches before as well.
I never tracked down if that was an often repeated typo or possibly there was another company trying to rude the bandwagon.... Anyway, glad you found them. They can be elusive! --Shane KP2/KD6VXI Title: Re: ART-13 autotune adjustment wrench? Post by: WB6NVH on November 11, 2021, 01:35:37 AM The wrench was originally made by the Bristol Tool Company, which referred to it in the 1940's in their ads as "The Bristo Wrench." Thus either is correct. AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
