I ran it through a small capacitor before the grid of the 828 buffer. I appreciate the info Jim and Geoff on the output of the 122. I thought it should be plenty hot to do anything I wanted. I guess I'd better go back to crystal control and not take on another project of repairing the vfo at this time. It was just for a test anyway. I am supposed to get about 100 ma pa grid current and I'm only able to muster up about 65 ma. However, I am getting the full 250 - 275 watts of RF out. I just need to level it out a bit.
Thanks guys... Rick I'd look at a schematic of a smaller rig (like a Viking II, or maybe a Globe King rig.. see how much input is required. Shouldn't the RF output of the VFO be capacitively coupled to the input of the buffer stage, anyway? -- Driving your AM Rig without a scope, is like driving your car at night, without headlights.
