Carl, What about taking the L7 out of line. Remember, when you key the tcvr you are also exercising the tcvr's transfer device. It could be the tcvr relay, or cold solder joint if it is pin diode switched.

I do not have the manual home with me, nor the schematic. The problem. When used in the bypass mode ( not on ) I can get reception, but tend to have the volume up on the tcvr.. When I key the mic on the tcvr and then unkey the volume will drive you through a wall. This would seem to me to be contacts on the send / receive relay in the L7. So the questions. Is the L7 send/receive relay an open frame or sealed? Has anyone else had a problem like this? I am assuming a standard part that is still available, does anyone have the part number handy? Thanks for the assistance.
