The bezel on the multimeter of my 77SX has broken. Anybody know where I can purchase a replacement bezel?

I have had this happen several times thru my years of various 77 
ownership,  Alpha had them at least when Molly was there,  rather 
pricey,  but they had them and suddenly price was not a concern,  i 
wanted one .. look at the Alpha site under Legacy parts ..  see if they 
still show emm  ..  good luck   ...  for me I'd buy a few for spares if 
we some how got together a larger order ...  they are just that fragile 
in my experience ...and I'm not done playing with 77's  as they come 
along  ..
On a new subject,  United RF  up in Colorado  recently had a sale on the 
3cpx1500A7 tubes and i am well pleased...at 385.00 shipping and testing 
as well performance was guaranteed..

good luck  mac/mc  w5mc

Check with RamMeter.  They cary the Mudutec S series used in Alpha 70/77
amplifiers.  The meters are now produced by Jewell Instruments.  Ask for
Clay Boura in customer service.

Dear Gerry,

Maybe you mean Alpha 87A ?  not 77A ??

Assuming the fault is number 14 with three middle lights 0 + + + 0,

Maybe the coaxial cable from the amplifier to the antenna switch or the
antenna switch is bad, since you say both the Dummy Load and the 10 meter
antenna show the same problem.

You did not say how much power you were using to drive the amplifier... it
would be best to test the problem with 10 - 25 watts from your transceiver
and make sure you were not using too much power from the transceiver.

I do not own a Alpha 87A, but have operated the amplifiers at other
amateur radio stations.   Maybe someone else can help you more.

Good luck, Buena suerte!

George, K8GG
