A friend asked me to look at his 425. First thing I noticed was the plate choke was burned. I think it came from trying to operate on 12 meters. I replaced that choke with the Ameritron model, which

Ken, I can't comment re L4, but high grid current is often associated with a failure of R17 (4.7 ohm , 5% resistor) on the bias board. Why this would only manifest on 75/80M is a mystery, but since i

I would tend not to think that R17 is the problem. If L4 is common to 160 and 80/75 I would think that you would see a similar problem on 160m. Most likely the full windings on L4 are in use on 160,

Good advice. And if that's bad, other stuff on the bias and key logic boards may be bad. It's worth pulling those boards out and checking all the semiconductors with an analog VOM (like a 260). Yes,
