I've had K1 sn 1859 working well since March this year and enjoying it very much. About a week ago I was switching bands and found 20 meters pretty quiet and my output went to zero. All other bands 40, 30 and 17 are working properly. I quickly grabbed the Quick and Dirty Signal Tracing instructions and followed the signal all the way through and all was good but still no 20 meters. I'm convinced the problem is in the Pre-Mix filter but am not sure how to trace the signal through the pre-mix filter. As you can probably tell I know enough to be dangerous. Can anyone give me some hints about how to trace a signal through this filter.

I had a problem on 30 meters in the pre-mix filter and luckily found a bad solder joint by wiggling components but that has not proved successful this time so I need to dig a little deeper and I don't have much test equipment only a DVM and an MFJ tuner/SWR/Power meter. I haven't had time to verify all the relays are switched in the right direction yet. Too much fun on 40 meters!!

Thanks for any help you can give.
