Check first the trimmer capacitor which adjusts reference crystal oscillator (Local unit), it may be dirty, rotate it back and forth several times, if it stabilizes then you can use it a few more tim
Well, at least final tubes are ok; try a different microphone first. For what you measured, I think yours is a high impedance mic, a low impedance dynamic mic followed by a step up transformer, is th
Are your final tubes fine after C13 short?; that failure will turn very positive final tube's grid bias, which causes an indeed high plate current. Check them before you go to the shop. If I don't mi
I've forgotten to add, that you must realign the driver and final grid section for the upper bands (best if you perform a complete RF re-alignment as per manual), where you may note the worst trackin

Hello Jerry, I suggest not to replace that cap. with a similar one because sooner or later you'll have the same problem. They're prone to have losses (= lower Resistance) with time. You can try a pai

Hello, I have one 2400 with MH27 microphone; the problem is, D/MR and P buttons in mike does not work but all other functions do, it's a problem in the radio not the mike (checked and worked fine on
Hello Al, it seems that lsb crystal oscillator does not work. Try readjusting LSB trimmer capacitor back and forth, just to see if oscillations start. This trimmer cap could be dirty. But, check also
Hello Tim, I've reading your posts also on F.T. list; you may use calibrator signal for alignment of receiver RF stages. I do not know in yours, but some don't put enough signal on 10 meters bands. I

No, no; the FT-101 I mention came with "tubes" (SAKE bottles inside), and after operating those, I heard the most exotic DX, really!. But a pity my CW was unreadable. Best regards Guillermo - LU8EYW.

I think yes. I'm not familiar with the carrier point adjustment procedure, but either a "hardware" tweaking or software asjustment, it must be done IMHO (I give more chances to be done to the harware
