Mike,

will not work with those varactors backwards! I don't know how you had
any receiver function at Alignment and Test Part II if those were
installed backwards.

No receive as in dead, no noises, or no receive as in I do not hear a
signal where I think I should? Do you hear the birdie at 7 Mhz?

Finishing up K2 6042 today. Have fine output on all bands, but no receive! I
did use another HF rig to create signal for alignment . . . and I did hear
that. I can also hear SPOT, so think amp is okay. But nothing from antenna.
For reference, I connected my K1 to same antenna and receive was
