Jay, you might want to make sure the bandswitch shaft hasn't slipped and
the input part is not on the band you think it is on.

HI all
Need some help. I have a friends SB220 that does not accept RF drive.
Following info
1) Plate voltage good at tubes
2) Looks like 30 ohm parasitic resistors/cap (aftermarket) are good,
both
tubes
3) Relay closes...TUNE position plate idles at 100ma
4) When relay closed I do have a DC path from RF input via relay to
tube
just prior to .01uf coupling capacitor.
5) In standby RF path good from INPUT to OUTPUT
6) Tubes do not glow blue
7) The tubes appear OK (physically), passed the "shame next to ear"
test
8) No grid current
9) Driving rig (TS950) shows INFINITE SWR which (to me) indicates an
open
or short (RF wise) in input.
10) 5 volt zener OK when relay energized
I am thinking it could be the .01uf coupler to the filaments
Thoughts?
Jay
