Hi Nj, Thanks for the info. That's one test I'll be trying tomorrow.
I did a bit of snooping in the IF chain with a scope probe & my spectrum analyzer, and found that at the back end of the xtal filter chain/amplifiers, I saw two signals, one a MHz above the desired receive frequency, and it was quite large. So, either I was introducing it into the receiver.. always possible, or there is something big time wrong with the RX. I have another receiver strip, and I will re-tune it tomorrow & see if anything changes. I'll keep all posted on the outcome. Thanks, Tim
