[TenTec] PROBLEM RESOLVED Re: RF in Ext. Speaker on Jupiter

[John Serrette - K5ZU]

I just found out the problem...bad RCA cable going from the RADIO jack on the AmpKeyer to the Jupiter.  Replaced the cable and no problems!

Thank you for your help.  Your reply post made me re-check all jumpers and cables which did the trick.

Yes, sometimes it's THAT SIMPLE!
