i have a ftdx-401 that has low  tx  output (100w on 80m & 20w on 10m)
and low rx sensitivity.checked tubes in radio all ok, but when the
outboard vfo is hooked in line and when the rig is using the outboard
vfo for main tuning the rx and tx power are up to reasonable levels.
tx out put is around 160 watts on all bands and rx signals increase by
a couple of s units.also looking for a sourse for caps for the power
supply for the 401..47uf @450wv and 100uf @ 500wv x2
any ideas.
thanks for reading this.
