Hi Roger.
Yes, I did try that. I disconnected the torroid from the circuit. I
think it is something getting hot but just can't feel anything that gets
overly warm inside. It does drift faster at high power than at low
power. I also connected the input coax connector directly to the
capacitor and the output coax jack to the other cap.
I thought it might be the coil getting hot, but it is not even getting
warm. May end up scrapping it and just using the parts to build
something else. It is a real puzzler. Thanks and 73

Have you checked the toroid? It's been a few years since I had one,
but IIRC the toroid is always in the circuit on the 989C. If not, how
about the output selector switch? I've purchased more than one
tuner/antenna switch etc that had missing solder joints, or bridged
connections from too much solder.
