Yup, I finally figured that out after someone else pointed that out to 
me as well. Had to double check what I put in the radio. Think I got 
lucky and bought the right resistor and replaced it correctly. So, for 
now Im good to go and radio is working well. Just need to get it back on 
the air to see if that chirp has gone away. Looks good on the scope 
anyway. Hopefully sounds good on the air.

Thanks-Bob-W0YBS
