 Hi allWell truly puzzled I am, have gone thru' the IF/AF board but apart from a couple of resistors that had their legs cut and soldered again I could not fault it, everything appeared to correct.Then I noticed that pcb numbering was different to what is in the manual, just the same as the low pass filter which was a 91696, this pcb also was a 9**** series, got me thinking that perhaps I am chasing a non existent fault.Refitted board to radio and attached my inverted 'L' and the signals romped in on 7mHz with the 'S' meter doing a dance across the scale, the other bands were the same.So it would seem that the fault has gone or I have unknowingly cleared it, now if I can just get the power control to work and the pa to give continuous RF output all will be well, just so long as that finals board is in the manual and not a later model 525d for which there will be no diagram, parts placing and listing.Thanks to those that offered help and advice especially Steve Hunt73Snowy G0HZE
