[TenTec] [Ten Tec} Corsair II weak weak receive

[jon greenwood]

Thanks James and also Stuart.
I am busy for the next few days and probably wont get back to the radio for a few. I REALLY appreciate the input. 
I am waiting for the pin diodes and just picked up a DMM that includes a transistor tester built in so I will check the old one first to see what it's condition is. 

I think all the comments are spot on and could be one of these for sure. Just need a good day off or two to get after it. 

I will post updates as I proceed. 

Again Big THANK YOU to all.

 Jon,
 
I'd suggest that you measure the Q6 transistor that you removed to see what its condition is.  An ohm meter measurement of the emitter-to-base diode and of the collector-to-base diode, both forward and reverse directions, would tell you whether the transistor was  dead or alive.
