I have 2 R4-C's and which behave in much the same way. I believe the PTO
generally is not exactly linear from one end of its range to the other.

Ahha, re my previous comment. I see that you have removed the NB-4 and there
is no change. I withdraw my comment.

Have you been able to remove the NB-4 and bypass it with the jumper plug as
yet? I have experienced this problem and I have found the NB-4 to be the
culprit. You may be embarking on a process to eliminate symptoms rather than
fixing the problem.

Is the NB-4 Noise Blanker installed? If so remove the NB from the R4-C and
install the jumper socket and see if the effect remains.
Chances are the NB is the issue and will need to be realigned and the NB
gain reset.

Max, if you are inclined towards doing all of the R-4C Sherwood mods on your
receiver then I would say it would be well worthwhile. The complete mods
really puts the R4-C ahead of the pack. I have done 2 R4C's this way and
wouldn't hesitate to do them again.
In terms of individual mods, then the p

Possibly.
I guess there will not be any VOX capability if it is hard wired to the PTT.

Reducing the mains input probably wouldn't make any difference to tube life.
Regarding the bias setting, changing this would only shift the class of
operating the finals a tad from the design spec if any. Can't see much to be
gained from doing either. Why not just use the rig and enjoy it?

Probably the "inj" level is higher from the T4X. Might need to investigate
the R4B mixers.
