OK, as you tune the stages up there are metering points 
and any decent indication of energy should show up on 
the meter when you do the right peak or dip. 

I should have asked... do you have an original unmodified 
channel element you can or did verify the exciter working 
before you tried your current setup?

Yeah but where?  Did you re-rock the element yourself 
and do you have any test equipment to measure or look 
at the elements fundamental output frequency & even the 
level?

You won't...

I doubt it.  After re-rocking well over a few hundred MSR 
and Mitrek KXN-1086 and KXN-1088 elements through the years 
I can't say I've ever had a bad one nor one that wouldn't 
cover the entire frequency spread.  If the element is flat 
or low on output, I would first suspect the crystal was cut 
wrong.
