148 gtl keys up but no transmit.

Thanks guys for all the help. I wound up sending it out. Just got it back it had a few bad caps and the 5k pot on the am power was bad. But I did find out that the clarifier was already open and it had some low channels in it too. I had the meter replaced and it converted to a 4 pin. Now she's sounding good. I just need to get a 30 amp power supply and I'll be good to go.
 
from what you was saying it was doing sounded like some bad caps. well at least you have it working now. I like the 148 radios for ssb use. they are very stabile. I run a cobra 148F in my pickup. would not take for it and like the built in freq counter even though it is a 5 digit.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
