[AMRadio] W5OMR Viking II fixed?

[ronnie.hull]

probably just a loose nut between the chair and microphone LOL

just joking.. Geoff is a good friend, I gotta jab at him every once in a 
while!!

I think the problem is still with him though and in a IM QSO with him 
yesterday we discussed the possibility of bad mica's in the output stage. 
This is a common failure in the Valiant, but, they usually short and blow the 
rf choke on the bottom of the plate choke in the valiant. I'm not completely 
sure that would be the case in the Viking. But an interesting thought no doubt
