Topband: Heathkit SB-1000

[Rich Cariello]

Jim,
If I remember correctly placing an additional transmitting type cap across the units load cap did the job. Don't remember the value I used. My guess 100 or 200 PF. I used a cap I had in the junk box. You will need to remove the cap in most cases for the other bands.

Is it a quirk of the amp needing a modification or possibly a bad component?  Saw nothing obvious before putting it to use but have not had the cover off since.Thanks,Jimk2hn
