If the final bias adjust preset is untouched then the IRF may have
failed.
Check the voltage on the left side gate pin of IRF (facing you) it should
be a small value,
I don't have my boards with me here at the farm!
It could be the driver or predriver. Whichever is running hot when you
press the PTT!

Bill,
One question, when you switch to transmit does the current jump to 1A
when you speak into the mic or without speaking?

I replace the 510 transistor. Sill no output. The current does jump up to
over 1 amp when I switch to transmit.
