wow, a big top of the line forum like this and nobody has anything on the 396?

Any help out there for this great little radio? No receive! Trans is OK. It acts as if the antenna is not hooked up as far as the receive goes. If I turn the volume up all the way I can barely hear some noise but when the squelch is turned all the way to one side or the other there is no differance. Antenna is connected and when I key up it transmits to another radio in my driveway.
I checked all the transistors and caps the best I could with out any info and all look good. Nothing is burned as far as I can see. I have to be missing something.

Anybody have any ideas?
