Guy's...

Here we are again...hours after my last post to the group...! Well.. would just like to say a BIG "Thankyou" to all of you who replied to my previous e-mail...regarding the screws n things, that "seemed" to be fitted in the wrong orientation,..
on my "Baby" K2 here...

I took the advice on-board ...changed the screws around (..think it would be 180 degrees..!) and things in that department turned out fine...I managed to "mate" ALL 3 boards together, to continue with the alignment process from Page 57 onwards in the manual...

Here's the story so far...!

Have done all of the above...and was just about to go ahead and try the rest of the alignment, when I thought..."...wait a minute...the rig should turn on now..as before ..and "if" I don't hear anything... well...it SHOULD turn on though.." ..RIGHT..??

Well...unfortunatley for me... I can't seem to get her to "turn on" (...he says...smilin to himself...with a cough..!)...I've put all the relevant side panels, front panel etc onto the rig,..plugged the rig into my 30 AMP shack PSU as before...

Pressed the "ON" Switch...waited for the EEPROM to do it's thing... NOTHIN..!!!

No Display...
No Rig "Noise"...
No Frequency Display ...

I CAN hear the relays click as I press the "ON" switch....there does'nt seem to be any "burning" smell or "smoke" emmitting from the rig at this time.... tried this several times ..with the same results... NOTHING..!

On "power up" ...I've noticed "heat" emmitting from the rig..."as if" shes tryin'...and Q22 on the "RF Board" DOES..heat up..dunno if this is meant to happen...but could feel the heat coming off it from inside the rig...

Any ideas anyone...
