Hey JMat...thanks for suggesting that ........It's alive !!! from the AF RCA jack out the back....beautiful 20m cw music. Not sure why you said "Cinch" as the audio is appearing from the RCA

HI Dave, The P98 connector is used for keyer option when equiped. This connector has nothing to do with your problem. (The KEYER knob goes to this connector to adjust the speed.) I suggest to start

Hi Fred..thanks for helping.. NO AM or FM is heard. I do see the s-meter pulsing back a forth a bit...and I adjusted the SQL knob for FM but no audio heard. I found out the P98 connector is for a

Bumping this one again... Tuning problem resurfaced yesterday. Looks like I'll be soldering ICs. Will update the group as soon as the covers are back on the rig and it has some run-time. Hopefully
