These resistors occasionally fail. Note: most tube checkers do not have
the current to "check" a 6jb6 accurately.
Good luck.

Sounds like the Bias supply may have failed, or be failing. Have you been
able to set the transmitter idle current per the manual?.

will go negative to the left of zero and i get a carrier in the receiver at
about 60 db on the same frequency on both VFO's. checked all tubes and they
seem to be OK. The carrier will change in amplitude with tuning of the final
tank for max output. Could someone give me an idea on what to do to trouble
shoot it.
