[Johnson] Need Viking Ranger EXPERT

[John King]

I have a nice Johnson Viking Ranger of 1960 vintage that precedes the Ranger II. It has a problem in the keying circuit that existed prior to my acquisition  of the Ranger. Since the problem existed while the former owner owned it, I don't know the problem with the keying Circuit.
I need someone who can direct me in repairing the keying circuit in the Ranger. At the age of 85, I am not much on trouble shooting a circuit that I know very little about. It would be appreciatedif a knowledgeable person could walk me through learning what the problem with the keying circuit actually is.
If someone can assist me with troubleshooting the keyerCircuit I will greatly appreciate the help and be forever grateful.
Please email me.Thanks and 73., JOHN KING K5PGW
