Check the BIAS supply in the AC-3. Probably just bad filter cap(s).

I have a tr-3 that I was warming up and the mike locked on. When I came back to a burning smell I
shut it down. I found that the transmit/receive relay had melted part of the white plastic
shield. I removed the cover cleaned the contacts and when it starts to get warm it closes the
relay and will not receive. If I key the mic it locks into transmit mode, I do not think it
transmits either. It looks to be over my head in repairing by myself, so I am looking for advice
should I keep trying or find some one to repair it?
I really like this radio
