Rick,
Unfortunately, you are plagued with the same problem dozens of -610
owners have. The only way to resolve it is to get an I or H model modulation
transformer. They are potted and hermetically sealed and don't talk back
near as much. Other than that you are SOL.
Mod-U-Lator,

Subject: [AMRadio] Modulator feedback
I've posed a couple of questions on some other lists and received some
good advice, but I am still in need of more. My BC-610-E has a bad
feedback or "talk back" problem. I've placed a capacitor across the
overload relay (RY-5) and that did eliminate a little of the talk back.
However, with much audio gain at all, not nearly enough to attain 100%
modulation, I get feedback. Not just talk back, but feedback. I have
to assume it's coming from the modulation transformer. The modulator
bias is set for 40 ma as specifications state. The bolts on the
modulation transformer are all tight. What am I over looking here? I'm
using a BC-614-E speech amplifier with a D-104 non amplified mic. I did
a few modifications to the dynamic input circuitry of the BC-614 to
better match the D-104, but that is the only modification in either the
speech amp or the BC-610-E.
