[Kenwood] Trio tx599 low cw output.

[mark kenward]

I have a Trio tx 599-same as Kenwood 599.

I have low output in cw mode...50 watts all  across the bands with 200 =
milliamps of plate current..

SSB output is 100 watts or so everywhere with proper ALC readings..

I have done all of the alignment routines in the service manual and the =
owners manual.(output was lower before).

All voltages are as specified in the manual.


Would anyone have an idea of where to look?


Would adjusting T-1 on carrier unit  (x50-0002-00) board cause freq to =
change, or output to vary?

Is it possible that the meter is reading improperly?  I get 100 watts or =
so with 300 mils of current.

Has anyone seen this one?

I appreciate any assistance.

Mark, K8VF
