A single final radio should have a low dead key @ 1 watt when the RF Power Output knob is turned all of the way down. When the RF Output knob is turned all of the way up, it should be no more than 4 watts dead key/no modulation.

A dual final radio has a low dead key of 2 watts, and a high dead key of 8 watts.

Do you have a MOSFET or bipolar transistor final? The MOSFET may have a higher dead key wattage when turned all of the way up; but it still should come down low when the RF Output is turned all of the way down.

Joe D; have you done this mod on the 929 before?
No offense meant nor implied; just curious is all.
I know that loosecannon would know if it is right.
