Hi to all,
Last week, my transverter XV50 was unable to receive properly... Only
a small voice in the background... no S unit... the guy normally give
me 10 or 20 over S9... After a new alignment procedure, I was unable
to peak R13 to the desired level. I was unable to get more than 0.043
V. So my conclusion was that Q3 is dead.
I received a new Q3 transistor. Now it is installed. I did another
alignement. Now with Q3, I can peak R13 very easy to the target of
250mV. Note that before and now, my TX is still perfect. So no
trouble with TX.
But even after Q3 changed.... it is worst. I do not receive anything
at all... not even a small voice in the background.
If I listen to the background noise.... with or without antenna, it
is the same. On the receiver input aligment, my noise generator did
not make any difference ON or OFF.
So I really don't know where to start now. I don't have very much
experience in finding trouble.
If someone could coach me where to start, I will really
appreciate... :-((
Thanks for your times.
