[Kenwood] TS 660 and no TX output with CW filter installed.

[Maurie]

I have just installed the YK -88C cw filter in the old TS 660...works well
on receive, but will not transmit effectively...give s out about  half a
watt rather than the 10 watts,.

When I go back to the the SSB filter, (ON CW Xmit,) via the original
jumper lead..which bypassed the lack of CW filter...the power goes up to
the normal levels..

I have checked the components around the filter...they seem Ok...

Nest step ..I was thinking..is to unsolder the CW filter and check that it
is in order , as the leg pins may not be connected on the filter base
itself.....

Any thoughts????
Thanks in advance,

Maurie
