Howdy,
The RF Gain/Power switch on my Corsair shot craps during the ARRL 10m
contest. It went in a big way, taking the fuse on the power supply and
tripping a breaker in the process.
>From my read of the owner's manual, it appears to be a 10k pot. I just
happened to have a 10k pot push/pull on/off in the junque box. I
dutifully replaced it, but the RF gain control ain't what it used to be.
Rather than really "kicking in" at about 10 O'clock [position 4 on the
dial], it doesn't really do its thing until about 2 0'clock on the dial
[this is on 40 m].
Is that pot really a 10k? Is it a 10k linear or log? Have I maybe
blown something along with the pot?
Thanks.
73, N0OCT
