[1000mp] AM Carrier setting

Wed, 28 Jan 2004 23:26:29 -0700

I have never gone inside to adjust the pot but the carrier power out does
tend to increase and decrease unexpectedly.  It is a royal pain.... as is
the tiny Power knob with mega-backlash.  I try not to run more then 15 watts
to drive the Henry 3K-Ultra (3CX1200D7 - original design) for about 250
watts out.
