Hello to the list, I thank you for all the good information over the years!

I have just purchased an Alpha 86 that in all rights seems to be in 
quite good condition.  Currently the only non-functioning aspect of the 
amplifier is the tune meter.

When switched into showing tuning on the graph, the left LED comes on 
and then one by one drifts to full right.  Does not matter if in TX or 
RX, or actually tuning the amplifier the meter will drift to the right.  
Thus it the meter is not operational.

I'm guessing the amp is making differential samples to extrapolate 
linearity.

Any thoughts or experience with this kind of a problem?

Thanks
Dana AF7Z
