Thanks all. I checked all solder joints and components in the pre-mixer and reflowed solder on U7. Still the same. I'll try the 4 band board tomorrow. Joe

They come off the same line and while they all conform to the better SA612 specs, some hams are convinced that the SA602s are "better", so they label some of them '602 - You will find many ham laments about the demise of the '602. but in fact the '612 is a direct replacement. Use the '612. As the prior poster has suggested, the RF board path from from P1 pin 2 to U7 pin 4 is suspect, as is the path between P1 pin 1 ans U7 pin 5. Yes, it is possible to have enough signal coupling to provide good receive but not enough to give adequate pre-mixer signal input on one band. 73, Don W3FPR On 6/9/2012 9:18 PM, Joe McGerald wrote: > Thanks Mike.
