I have a DX959 that I did the EKL2030 dual final mod to. It was not doing any more power than before the mod so I decided to revert back to stock to see what might have gone wrong. I know that even new parts can be bad.
Before the mod I was dk at around 8 watts and swinging to 20+. After the mod I was dk at around 5 and swinging to 15.
Obviously something went wrong.
After reverting back to stock I am dk back to around 8 watts, but I have no modulation and NO swing. It is as if I am only dead keying and not speaking into the mic. I do get a small amount of audio in talk back, but nothing like it was.
Also, what could I have done to the EKL mod? I have a good clue about this stuff and can solder quite well. I know I had everything where it should be and did not miss any parts in or out.
Possible as simple as a bad part?
Any help for a humble newbie.
