[TenTec] Argosy--low power problem

[Kris Merschrod]

Say Scott,

First, are you working with and Argonaut V  (model 516)?  IF so, where is
that switch on the back for high and low position?

I have fiddled with the pots on the inside of the Argonaut V and can also
reach those lofty levels of 40 Watts, but i NEVER HAVE LEFT IT THERE.
