An export JFK am/fm that came in a bulk deal. Receive audio seemed a bit low and had some fuzz in it. But loud enough I could listen from a few feet away. Radio had modulation but not what it should be listening on another radio. FM actually sounded great. Radio puts out 1w up to 10w with the variable on front. Noticed absolutely no forward motion when I whistle. Put the meter on PEP. Absolutely no movement. Just a dead key. Found this to be strange because I hear myself on other radio. Opened it up to look around and found the crater in one of the 2 audio chips. It's ic1 that blew its lid.
