[Elecraft] 40m low sig: problem solved

[Andrew Moore]

Thanks for all the responses to my troubleshooting questions.

Further tracing brought me to C6 (4.7 pF) at the back edge of the board, 
which the manual states should be installed across the two outer pins of 
the three-pin jumper block.  I interpreted "two outer" to mean the two 
adjacent pins near the "outer" side of the board edge -- i.e. in the 
direction of the side panel instead of the center of the edge.

40 meters is incredibly noisy at my location right now, so I still hear no 
signals, but the noise level has com'll assume I'm in good shape now -- 
will listen to some real signals tonight.  I've never been so happy to hear 
noise on the band!

Thanks N0SS for the terrific lesson in quick and dirty signal tracing.
