Just got a hammarlund hq-129x last night...  it's not doing so well


Broadcast band seems to receive well. 160m is fine...  sounds fine on 80m


But much above 40m and it starts to go deaf...  infact all I can hear around 10m is what sounds like fm broadcast radio...  which is weak



  There is a hum in the audio output...   and touching the speaker output shocks you
