I figured out my tune-up issue. After some pondering, checking that all
of the pieces were in the right spot and looking at the data about the
test points in the back of the book I figured out that I needed to tweak
R39. Once I did that I started getting RF output and then the rest of
the tune started working MUCH better. R39 need to be adjusted higher
than the 20mv @ TP5 that is listed in the book. That was the magic for me.
I will be wiring it up tonight into the station so that I can try to get
it tested on the air tomorrow night.
We are a little over a week from the Jan VHF contest and I am still
building things.
