Hi Everyone,
It's been a few weeks.....

I have a mid 1970's Realistic mobile that someone asked for a recap and alignment on if the radio is working otherwise. I did a quick transmit, receive and frequency check on it and it displayed a saw tooth wave form on transmit. I did a few quick alignment adjustments on it and the wave form never cleaned up. In your experience, when you see this is it generally a bad driver/final or could it be something as simple as a bad cap? Or, could it be something else? The radio is a 452 with the 858 PLL so it's a decent Uniden product.

Thanks as always!!!
