Well... here is where I'm at: Checked the 914 diodes on the SWR board and sensing diode (D1) was bad (leaky reverse biased). A big smile. I replaced the offending diode, put everything back together,

Before I go at it, any tips on desoldering the power transistors? My 35W iron is not up to the task unless I cut the foil leads beforehand. A bigger iron might be in my future. ______________________

Try as I might my old Ungar iron and roll of SolderWick fight a losing battle against the leads. I've got a 70W digital-control solder station so I ordered a much heftier chisel tip element for it. T
