    Utica, Town and country 111 cb radio. shorting out.

    i found v1 pin 2, and v5 pin 2 have about 40vdc. It should be .6 vdc and 3 vdc. The rf gain is on this line. I can't figure out where the 40vdc voltage is coming from. any help would be very appreciated. Thanks

    I get a nice loud tone when i set up to test a1 thru a8. The 266khz signal is connected to pin 4 of a5,a6 transformer The vtvm doesn't move much though. maybe the problem is between, the a5,a6 transformer, and the anntenna.
