Well, now I am out on the limb and don't quite know what to do next. I
have completed my K2 and all previous alignments went fine. Now I am to
the transmitter and problems. I prealigned all the band as per receiver
using a good signal generator and receive works fine. When I try the
transmitter I have real problems. No matter where I set the power it
makes no difference. If set to 2watts, 5wa tts, or 10 watts the
output is the same This is what I get
3750 kHz 10w 2.48A P 0.1 ON the lCD
14100 1,5w 1.00A P 0.1
10100 11w 2.48A P 0.1
21100 9w 2.5A P 0.1
18100 11w 2.48 P 0.1
28200 8w 2.3A P 0.1
24900 8w 2.5A P 0.1
As I said, it makes no difference where the power setting is, I get
those reading. The current is higher than it should be also.
I haven't the faintest idea what to look for. The voltages on Q6, Q7,
and Q8 are ok.
