The plot thickens...
I hooked up my VFO and tuned in to Chan 38 and had my wife give me some 10 counts on the Midland. I tweaked in the "crystal" freq until her voice was just right and started listening to 38/LSB on the Bengal and had the Midland in the other end of the shop.
Although the background noise is high (normal?) on sideband the actual signals behaved the same way they on AM! I am starting to wonder if the FET2 3SK22-Y is tired... The voltages look good but it might be starting to break down. I have did a little searching but don't find any of these for sale on this side of the pond.
Anybody know of a good substitute?
