Hi Gang,
I got my K2 a couple of years ago.
Once in a great while I would notice the audio volume drop to about 30%.
It would typically happen after I had moved the unit or had the cover
off doing filter alignments.
I found I would simply tap the unit and the audio volume would be
normal.
I figured I would eventually get around to checking the circuit when I
had the unit cover off again.
Well last week I replaced the audio and RF gain pots.
Those are working sweetly.
At the time I had the control PC dis-assembled I did some re-soldering
of all of the joints I could find around the LM380.
I thought I had it fixed by doing that but last night it did it again.
Any hints or tips on best way to troubleshoot this?
Maybe tracing the audio circuit with a signal source at the time it
drops?
Your suggestions welcome!!
Thanks
N1BBR
