    Spectrum analyzer

    Well, I don't know where the $700 DSA815'S Rigols are Hidding but I'm sure you can find one with patience. I purchased one with all the trimmings and it ended up being closer to $3000.

    Who does quality radio alignment?

    I did not think this would be necessary but apparently I was wrong. I got a message from someone that thinks all I have to do is answer emails and phone calls all day and not do any bench work. In the future, if anyone wishes to send work to me try to exercise at least 10 or 15 hrs of patience...

    Power loss at antenna ?

    At those lengths (130 feet) you need to upgrade to the LMR400 types or similar. Remember you will see a lower SWR at the radio as you will see the same return loss as you see in the forward loss.

    Did you ever check to see if the collector voltage was dropping at the mirror board when trying to modulate the radio.

    RCI 2995 DX problem

    Does the voltage at the mirror board drop while modulating the radio in AM mode? it should stay solid and/or increase with modulation.
