I am seeing bias now and have the unit adjusted so I can key it, but
while I am seeing some plate current, I am not seeing any output. I
am using an external power meter and I have the filaments turned on.
The VOX, anti-VOX were all maladjusted.
I have found two additional connectors in the back. On the left hand
side there is a phono jack in the 'spare' position. This is connected
to and orange shielded cable that ends up on top of the chassis in a
curve next to the VFO above the xtal sockets. The cable is not
connected to anything so I will probably pull it. The other 'spare'
is a BNC jack (left rear chassis) that connects to Pin 2 of V5 via a
capacitor. I will continue to look for additional 'features'.
