That means your synth is putting out. So that's good. Did you check all the connections at the bottom of the ba board and pins?

Center pin coming out of the board

He means the rca plug at the rear of the crystal board

I see several mods that were done. A couple of I think 455khz filters on bottom side not factory.

Good news is you have a gray channel selector.

Pretty weathered. First things to try Is pull the boards and re-seat them. Pull relay and re-seat.

You want the best way to solve that problem and sound great on 38lsb. Go to Barkett and buy the 38 crystal. Put it in ch1 slot. You now have a few new SSB frequencies and you can use the vfo for AM on the ch you lost. Set it dead on using the trimmer. Works like a charm. Thats the way I talk...

Also, if you are considering solar from a cold call that's a bit foolish. If you want solar I suggest you do a ton of homework and search out a company on your own. Nothing good comes from cold calls except a paycheck for the person on the other end.

I have a good friend that is a HAM. He installed solar and his hobby is now done as far as base goes. Nothing but noise. Have another friend does just cb. Has panels. No noise.

Pull the tubes and try it.

I use this cable and buy from this company. Good service, price and cable. https://geistnote.com/gotham-audio-gac-3-5-8mm-o-black-or-brown-sold-per-foot-not-terminated/

Is it on frequency out of the box? If it's off a touch I posted a quick how to get it on freq using a known radio that is on to do it. So far the ones I have had have all been on.

That's normal

You and the other end will not notice any difference.

I believe it's called a corona ball. Suppose to keep static down and other things. Just can't remember all the stuff from years back. But cutting it off definitely won't change take off or blow up a radio.

No way in hell would cutting the tip off be noticed in any way whatsoever except swr changes because of length. There is not one person on the other end or in his receiver that will ever hear or notice anything. I'm not sure when all this crap that is like law on the internet started. Probably...

You and the people on the other end will never see or hear any difference.

McKinley 100%. Better display. Compact. Front speaker. And I have used both and just like the quality and feel of Mckinley better.

They will follow. No escaping special people.
