[1000mp] No rx on 15m

[Jerry Spring]

John,

This sounds a bit like a problem I had a few months
back.  Does your receiver work on other bands?  The
reason I ask is that there is a VERY COMMON PROBLEM
with the VCO board and cold solder joints.  If it is
this problem, you may be lucky and a bit of
resoldering could do the trick.  I ended up purchasing
a new board ($250) after trying everything on the old
one.  My MP is now working like new again.  Good luck!
