> The 40M band is reversed. It defaults to USB. You have to change > the SB selector to X to get LSB. Yep. I tried both USB and LSB. The SWBC stations, I could hear using either USB or LSB; as would be expected. However most of the amateur broadcasts sounded garbled/muffled on one (usually LSB for 40m) and pretty much unintelligible in the other. > Do you have the VFO connected or the jumper in place? At the moment, I have the VFO connected, but it is turned off. So the only thing which could be an issue are the Jones connectors and the switch contacts in the RV-3. I may wind up replacing the jumper in the TR-3 just to get the RV-3 out of the picture; so I only have to worry about the TR-3 :-) :-) > The low signal strength issue might be similar to what I'm chasing > on 40M. I think mine might be different. Using the calibrated output from the signal generator (8640B) the S meter agrees with it. Although I haven't looked at the schematic to see just how the S meter is driven. What I seem to be experiencing is low audio. I'm going to poke around the audio section to see if I can figure out what is going on. > Check the alignment voltage at the test point for the 21.5mhz > crystal to see if it is still working. I checked the test voltages for all the bands and adjusted the three coils for maximum output. Unfortunately, I didn't see anything in the manual which what sort of voltage I should see. 73 - Mark N1VQW ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
