I replaced the two fl2 and fl3 filters on the jupiter blue screen because it had zero output on all bands.
I first replaced fl2 with no success then fl3 and it started transmitting. I set the bias to q3 &4 at about .7 volts
It has the later version FET for q1 and q2 so I could not find a way to bias those. The jupiter has about 100 watts
on all bands except 20 meters where it has only about 65 to 70 watts, I have used it for about 3 weeks and it works
fine except for 20 meters. I have looked at schematic many times and cannot figure out my problem on 20 meters.
If anyone has a solution would you please send me a suggestion, I love the jupiter and would like to repair it.
