I am working on a Galaxy DX2517 here at the shop.
The main issue I am having with it is that it will only put out between 16 and 24 watts, but I know it should put out at least 40 watts. I have replaced the finals and the caps and diodes for the finals and still no power. I have even applied 12vdc directly thru the mirror board and still no luck.
An interesting thing is that the longer I keep it "keyed" the higher my wattage output is!!!
This is of course not normal with a Base.
Anybody with an idea would be greatly appreciated.
THanks

Check the center contacts on the coax socket,loose or corroded can cause this also a poor solder joint here can do same thing.Bigbob |
