Hi To help any more we need some measurements in the transmitter. Did you build the RF probe and go through the troubleshooting section of the manual? What test equipment do you have. A scope would be nice but the RF probe/multimeter should be good enough to find the problem. Basically you start at the transmit mixer and check each stage following looking for a loss of signal. 70-80% of the time the problem is a toroid wound wrong or a toroid lead not tined properly and not making a good connection to its solder pad.
I will be away from my computer for a week so I can not give you any more help but if you make the measurements in the manual someone on the reflector should be able to help you out.

Thank you Don. I got the peak at the earlier receiver stage. I have also gone back over the solder joints and all the relays three times since last night with nothing spotted. I'll comb through the toroid connex again... Adjusting the power with the front panel "power" control while in Tune makes no difference...and neither does moving L1 or L2. dk _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
