G4AON suggested that I put it into TEST mode, in which case it will only mute the 
receiver when I key it up.  That seems like a good solution.....but now that it is 
muted I can't get it to XMIT anymore :-(  There is an awful lot to try to figure out 
on this radio, and obviously something that I should have tried to figure out before 
I went to the East Coast this week :-(  Obviously with a blown up converter I guess I 
won't be on at all for the EME contest this weekend, but I hope I can get something 
lashed together so I can operate both 6m and 2m EME again for the P29 and all my 
other 6m EME skeds next week!  Right now, I can't even XMIT with it on 6m anymore....
