    It ŵas 6 months ago or more. I'll keep it as is for the moment.

    Here are the pictures. I couldn't don't anything burnt, or out of place.

    I wasn't able to get to it today, but I will shoot a detailed close up video tomorrow, and post it.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    Look at the one to the right of the PL 259. It looks strange, almost cooked.

    I'll take a better picture later today. Can you copy the picture, then circle the resistor in question, indicating which one you're referencing, and post it?

    I believe so. I'm sure I could send it out and have Jim configure it that way.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    I'm using a home built HP 75A power supply, which has a distinct AC hum in my audio, so I bought another power suppy. I think that it is most definitely a problem with the radio or power supply. And yes, the Galaxy is on my bench with my other radios. I agree that it might not be ideal for...

    They splatter like crazy, but sound good.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    About 5W, 35W PEP with the amp drive all the way open, which results in 150W and about 1400 PEP out of the amp.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    So 5W deadkey and 45W PEP will give me 150W deadkey. Seems like a lot of drive for a 2 pill driver section, but I know little about solid state amplifiers.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    The relays chatter on SSB with the switch up, when it's down, it doesn't. Putting 5W dead key swinging to 45-50 PEP, and the amp drive knob at max power, I get 110W deadkey. So it seems I have to put more drive from the radio, to see any dead key wattage and it should be showing more than 110W...

    The center on the switch is standby. Up is AM. Down is SSB. The radio is deadkeying 2W, 20W PEP. It does. But using the tune and average settings, it reads zero untiI start talking, then drops back down to zero again. So zero deadkey power when not modulating.

    Sending it back to Jim so he can check it out.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    I honestly believe my power supply is the problem, it's the AC hum making my audio sound bad because when the previous owner had it, it sounded great on SSB. Ordered a new one, should be here by the weekend.

    Anyone Know?

    That was quite awhile ago. I'll just leave it as is for now. Thanks! At least now, I know who to contact if I decide to change it.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    Sure, next time I take the cover off. Might do that tomorrow. I noticed that I have an AC hum coming from my power supply powering the radio, and can hear it in my carrier on AM. I'm beginning to suspect that as the root cause of my audio problem. I just ordered another one and will know for...

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    This is what it looks like on the outside. I was told that it was not biased, nor does it have a SSB delay. So I guess I'll have to see if he has the paperwork for it.

    307 Amps 2X6 Base Amp Issue

    It's a really nice amp, I love it. Will be even better, once I get it sounding good on SSB.
