Thanks for all the suggestions.  I went all around tapping all connectors
and filters.  I ran all the switches up and down.  I got it back, 
when I put the filter switch back into the stock filter position.
Don't know whether it was a filter, connection, switch, or even if I
somehow left the filter switch in an open position (no accessory
filters on board).  I can test that theory by listening for a 
signal with the switch in a position with no filter and see if I
hear anything and get no PBT action.  Hey, but then I would feel
stupid.  Guess I'll leave it alone.  Anyway, the Corsair II works
now.

Next topic:  I want CW filters for it!  Anyone have the 282 or 285
(6.3 MHz IF Cw filters, 500 and 250 Hz) for sale?  I would buy or
have a 9 MHz IF filter to trade, the 218, 1.8 Khz ssb filter.

Anyone ever build on an added filter into the 9 MHz IF for the 
Corsairs?  I was thinking of adding a 500 Hz filter in that 
IF automatically switched in by the CW mode switch or manually
from a switch on the back of the rig.  Would be nice to have a 
pair of 500 Hz filters for normal CW operation.

Thanks to everyone for the help.  I got a lot of good solid advice.
