They should all have slugs. Sounds like someone before you screwed the slug out 
of the coil form. It's probably lying on the bottom of the box.

If the amp was not a one-owner, given it's 10 meters, my guess is it was a CBer 
trying to get 15000 watts out of it by retuning, good-buddy!

While you're in there, check all the solder joints on the switch. My AL-1200 
had input SWR go ballistic when it was 1 year old. Turned out a connection to 
the switch wafer was NEVER soldered!
