    Cobra 148 Night Watch Sound Tracker no am-low ssb

    Further detective work points to the AM regulator so I ordered a 2sb754 regulator its a much better replacement and hope it does the trick. Will report back on my success or failure. LOL

What would be the first thing to check I did try another 1969 and the same low ssb and no AM. There is audio modulation on the ssb and good receive audio...

So i posted the schematic and would it be 1 of the 2n3904 transistors on the frequency end? Q4-10 and maybe the Q4...
