[TenTec] confused re Corsair II VFO jumper

[Carl Moreschi]

It sounds like your RCA cable acros the VFO in/out jumper is not pushed all
the way in.  You may have to actually turn in around some as you push in to
help clean off any oxidation that may have occurred over the years.  I have
had a similar problem with my Omni V on the TxEn and TxOut jacks.  The
jumper tentec provided has very long pins and goes further into the jacks
than a standard cable connector.
