Tony, check CR19 in the cathode circuit of the 12BY7 driver. You can check it
with the rig unpowered (safest method) with a VOM or DMM in the resistance
mode. The diode may test OK when cold. Touch a soldering iron to either end of
the diode. If the diode is intermittent, the heat will cause the diode to open.
It happened to one of my T-4XCs. I replaced the B5G5 diode with a 1N4003 (or
1N4007).

DrakeList - New Resources
The Old Web based forum died....one of the updates managed to mangle the
database. Sorry, all content was lost, and the automatic backup was of the
mangled system...

Possible Addition
I am considering setting up a mailing list...it would be a one-way affair
used to notify list members of changes/additions/events that may be of
interest to Drake users.
Let me know your thoughts on that.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in these new venues.

Hello All,
I have no output on any band. This problem has been intermittent now is
all the time. I have just one replacement 6jb6 so I swapped them one and
the other. There is a correct bias current at idle. I checked the grid
of? 6jbs's it was measured at 2.5 VoltsPP. My scope measures freq by
measuring the time between two peaks. It comes out to be the frequency
of operation or in this case 3700 Khz. I have gone through the alignment
I found them a little difficult without repeating them again.
What voltage should I see at the grid of the finals?
Thanks, Tony WA6LZH
