Many times this can be cured by the adjustment of R6 as described in paragraph 5-14. If the correct amplitude cannot be obtained with this adjustment, monitor the signal at Q6(C) with an oscilloscope and set R6 to obtain an amplitude of 2.8V p-p. Then check Q5 and Q9 stages. If the R6 adjustment isn't effective, you should suspect the AGC circuitry (Q3, CR4, CR5, C5, C6, R5, R6, R7, or Q1).
The only problem is that according to the schematic Q6 is part of the oven controller circuit. Surely they mean Q2(C)?? Bruce _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list [email protected] https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
