[TenTec] low RF output on 80 meters with Argosy and Century 22

[Mike Bryce <prosolar@sssnet.com>]

well the subject line says it all.

I have a Argosy II and it works just fine on all bands but 80 meters, 
there's output but no where near what it should be. On 40 meters I get 
about 40+ watts, on 80 meters about 8 watts.

I dug out my Century 22 and notice is has the same problem.

now... powered measured
1. 13.8 volt supply
2. Bird wattmeter
3. 50 Ω load

While not a critical fix right now, I do plan on getting the problem 
resolved.

Has anyone ever notice this and if so what is the fix (besides a trip 
down to the factory!)
