Sounds like your making good progress on the old TR-3. Tackling one
problem at a time, that's the way I do it, then move on to the next
problem.

Boys...
A new set of 12JB6's and three new cathode resistors and there be fire in
the wire!!!
The transmitter now has about 175 watts output into a 50 ohm load (on 40
meters). The load control now seems to be "active" and loads up at between
3-5 on the scale..
I did not try other bands yet.
now... the only problem i still have is the S-meter being way to generous.
And.. if I reduce the rf gain, the meter moves up, but pegs itself
swapped out several tubes in that receiver and s-meter circuit, that did
change things..but perhaps the tubes that made things change were no goo to
begin with. one set had the s-meter working, but when you turned the gain
down, the meter did not move at all...
Once i get the s-meter bug fixed, looks like a new front panel from tony and
some other goodies... this guy is almost ready to go.
