I have a Regency Range Gain that is in excellent condition and freshly recapped. The resistance at the tube pins is spot on and the only resistors with issues were the two at the caps and the 27ohm resistor that runs from the bridge rectifier to the cap; which was blown. All were replaced and the radio is operating correctly with the exception of it only modulates to about 3 watts PEP and not the 10+ watts. I've tried new 6AQ5 tubes as well as a new 12BH7 with no change. It keys a little over 1 watt. It is off frequency a tad ( 27.2037 as opposed to 27.2050). I confirmed steps 2 and 3 of the transmit alignment were correct but I am unable to do 1 and 4. Step 1 is the bandpass adjustment and step 4 is the rf calibration. What might I be missing? Are 1 and 4 enough to cause what I'm seeing? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
