Hi SteveThanks for replying my shout for guidance on the ARGOSY 2 525d problem
that I have.Yes it is the same on all bands.Now on removing the top cover to
look at the innards I saw on the mixer board I had 3 x burnt components 2 x
8.2ohm and 1 x 150ohm resistors ( R,s 24-26),these changed as well as the
associated small 'C,s, again no difference ,I have followed the path back from
the 'S' meter and replaced Q2 and Q11 on the if/audio board, no difference.Went
back to the low pass filter ( the odd numbered one 91696 not what is in the
manual) and changed the BAT41 diodes in the sensing circuit, you guessed it, no
difference.HELP hi hiI have noticed that it seems to be off frequency, I inject
a signal of 7.050mHz but seem to get a better tone at 7.045mHz and a small bit
of life in the 'S' meter but it still requires a massive input signal in to
show any life, the TX indication is spot on.Regards73Snowy

The manual quotes 0.3uV for 10dB S/S+N typical - that would be-117dBm
into a 50 Ohm load.
Is it the same on all bands?
