What kind of radio is it?
I'm too far away from you (WV) to check it out but the more descriptive you are the more people here might be able to help.
 
the radio is a connex 3300hp dont know whats all been done to the inside but i do have replacement finals and driver for it just incase it needs them brand new. but i dont know much about all of this sorry
 
The first problem I see is you said it used to dead key 40 watts, that's not even possible for any version of the Connex 3300.

At this point since it's probably janked up from this Mike dude, best bet is to save up some cash and sent it in to a quality shop.

If you actually have a beam antenna and amplifier like you say a 15 dollar used Craigs list Cobra radio should at least get you talking. This is assuming there is nothing wrong with your antenna system, jumpers, power supply, and so on.
 
dk waswith the amp on but good idea cobra was alway good radio i thinki might trash this connex n just get a cobra craigslist good idea........btw that was mike from radioactive.....
