Might try using a 10x scope probe on the DFM or just measuring through a 50K resistor. I had a similar problem --just had to fiddle around with the input R depending on the instrument.

Thanks for this. I think you are right. Off to find another way of measuring
this.

Thanks

Your DFM might be 50R input impedance and killing the signal.

Hello all

Quick question about the TR7 PBT/Reference Board. According to the manual I should have 40MHz on Pin 19. This pin is connected to a 470 Ohm Resistor then to coax and back to the Transistor. I should be able to measure 40MHz on this pin. I can do that fine.

The next step in alignmnet is 13.695MHz VCXO adjustment. According to the manual I should be able to connect a DFM to PIN 17 and adjust L1005 for exactly 53.695MHz (13.695 + 40MHz). On Pin 17 I cant measure anything. Zip. Although the RX is working fine.

Are the Pin outs correct, and how did Drake number the edge connectors ? Top down or ???

Thanks
