I have everything back together and all is working....almost all working.?

Band 10D is deaf. It does not hear the internal 100 or 25KHz generated tone. I have not begun to perform an alignment as I am still waiting on my RF Signal Generator. But all other bands can hear the internal tone with a signal strength of anywhere from S7 to 10 over S9. I believe that bodes well for me.

I have been cooking three tubes that I am not worried if they die on me, just to see if all is well with that circuitry. And it is. Both amp tubes and the driver are glowing very sweetly orange.

The RF gen should be here Tuesday and then I will start down the road of the alignments per chapter 7. ?

However, I am happy to entertain suggestions as to where to focus for the 10D issue, if it truly is an issue. My hunch is within the band switch and the tuner section associated with 10D. I have not dug into this yes as I just discovered this today.
