thanks no N0SS, i have finally narrowed down where my problems on my k1
are..
in signal tracing, i actually heard TONS of signals through my radio.. i
have a feeling that it has been broken since day 1... i can't WAIT to
get this fixed and on the air.. i have never heard so many signals on my
radio.. WOW!
anyway..
here's where i am now..
test point 1 - T1.. CHECK!
test point 2 - D5... CHECK!
test point 3 - J2-1 ... P2-1 BAD BAD BAD!!
okay...
so i found that on the front side of D5, i got a signal.. on the back
site.. BOOOO!!! no signal..
the first thing i did was replace D5 and D14.. of course, i should have
read N0SS's full document first.. but .. well, you know..
so i replaced the diodes, and got the same results..
so then, i checked to see if there was 6V on the anode of D5.. NO DEAL..
out of curiosity, i checked D14, too.. and there was nowhere near 6V
here, either..
then, i did all the voltage checks at the test points on the manual, and
everything was good..
i then checked the 8V and 6V voltage regulators according to the
manual.. and they checked out fine..
does anyone have any hints?
i have a feeling this is gonna be like a new radio!
thanks!
