EPT360015C board
this was on during a storm and may have been zapped.
Here is what's happening. The radio turns on and as soon as it does the signal meter pegs out. It does Transmit full power and the tx/rx LED does toggle. The radio has great modulation as well. But it ONLY transmits on 29.8100Mhz no matter what band or channel you choose...always 29.8100Mhz. I tried to do an alignment and got the VCO voltage bang on but when I moved on to try adjusting L20 ( PLL offset oscillator) it does adjust the frequency so L20 appears functional but it will not adjust down far enough to continue the alignment. And the meter pegging out in rx mode when turned on is weird. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks.
