[TenTec] Corsair II problem

[Steve Ellington]

It's going to take some patience, oscilloscope and audio generator. Feed the
generator into the mic input and monitor the signal back through each stage,
looking for the loss. Try some heat from a hair dryer or some circuit cooler
to encourage the condition to occur during the process.
