Magic! I have just read your advice to Stewart GM4AFF and recognised a phenomenon I have been getting with my XV144 for years. I had assumed that the flashing LEDs were due to my fault in overdriving.
I have just added a 0.1 across E & C of Q7 and that has cured the problem. I must now do the same with my XV70. Am I to assume that this mod has now been incorporated in new XV--- kits? I am ever thankful to you, Don, for your valuable contribution to the reflector. 73 de David G4DMP In a recent message, Don Wilhelm <[email protected]> writes >There are some XVnnn transverters that falsely detect an overload >condition.
