GE SuperBase......No Output

[toader32]

Hi,

My GE SuperBase has recently lost output on both AM and SSB. I was abusing it like always...sustained transmissions, and now the RF meter shows no output, but the MOD meter shows normal swing. Before I opened the radio up to poke around aimlessly....the radio showed full output on the RF meter and extremely low modulation on the AM MOD meter. Also at this time the SSB RF out looked normal. Now my poking around has changed the original problem from no AM modulation to no output power/carrier and no SSB output. I only have a DVM and a soldering iron to work with, and no schematic. If anyone has any suggestions regarding my problem, I would be very gratefull as I have no clue.

Thanks,

My guess is that it has something to do with the AM regulator and related connections.

Thanks for your input.

Another friend suggested the same. Do you know the component id or component number that is the AM regulator? My friend said to look for a 2sb754 but I could not find it anywhere on either board.
