Make you measure all DC voltages for RX and report any that are not what 
the manual specifies.

>A couple of days ago I finished my K1 project. I must say it is a little jewel. However, the audio is definitely low (compared to my Ten Tec Kit for 30 mtrs.) A closer look at the audio amplifiers have shown nothing at fault; I'm begining to suspect something is wrong in the AGC circuit, maybe. Placing the AGC in the off or on positions makes a swithching sound (pop) but no difference in the signal heard, is this OK? I think not. Any ideas out there as I don't have any equipment to trace the signal is becoming difficult for me to trouble shoot. Thanks to all for any help.
