    Fat Boy 4 pill die?

    Switch was fine. Turned out to be a faulty, cheap fuse that fell apart, but was still allowing only 2.3 volts to pass through. Ahhh...it's the little things that'll get ya. Thanks guys for all the advice.

    Fat Boy 4 pill die?

    That's what I was thinking. I'll know more when I can make it over there and take a look at it. I'm no "amp tech", but maybe I could spot something obvious.

    Fat Boy 4 pill die?

    A buddy of mine said that his Fat Boy 4 pill (not biased) died. He wasn't transmitting when it happened. He said "I flipped it on, nature called, and when I got back the led was off.

    Carl Built

    The only other radios that I had at the time was a Galaxy 959 and a 73V. Both read SWR input at over 4.0. I replaced the Carl Built with a 307 Built biased 4 pill and never looked back.

    Taking bets on where Fine Tune pops up next

    Taking bets on where Fine Tune pops up next

    Quick question....When using the 9 band EQ and your 955, do you change the mic setting on radio to EL or do you keep yours at DY. I have a 10 band EQ w/ touch screen from UR6QW and have a Sennheiser 935 or a Lewitt condenser that I could use.
