Hi to all

I want to ask if someone encounter this situation with the 2k classic. When
the amp is OFF the IG meter rest in zero point , but when i turn ON the amp
the IG meter moves to counter clockwise movement. Its not moving hard to a
point it will break the needle, just a soft movement backwards and stay just
there, it will move to clock wise direction when i TX on the radio it will
show the IG reading of the amp,but iam not sure if its the correct reading
since it rest on the backward possition of the zero point.

I tried to remove the parasitic suppressor on the tube and power it up, the
backward meter movement was gone, the meter rest on the zero point, a bit
puzzle where that backward meter movement came from or causing it.

Hope someone can give info how to trouble shoot it. The meter wiring and
parts seem still in the original.

73,
Alex
