Hi Gang,

prompted me to start looking at some of the resistors in one of my IF decks. 

     While you’re at it, one should take R617, R618, and R619 from under the audio deck and
re-mount them over the "L@@K RARE" squelch plate, perhaps with a small computer fan to stir the
air.  This will relieve the need for putting spacer washers underneath  the mounting screw as some
have advocated to reduce the cooking oven temps.  One might as well remove FL601 as all it was
designed for was 850Cps bandwidth for RTTY.  (You could the sell it to PMS Marterin for a "Special
RARE Collins hemorrhoid cure"  He wouldn’t know the difference.  Regards, Perrier
