Sounds as though the 455 kHz filter is bad. Very common issue. I recall
that FL2 is usually the culprit. I don't recall that Tentec has the
filters in stock. However they are available from various sources.
And I may still have one or two available. Ah yes, found two in the
drawer. These radios are easy to repair.

Greetings,
My blue screen Jupiter is having xmt issues. Built in auto-tuner will
tune initially, and rig will briefly xmt full power but after a little
xmting it stops and puts out 0 watts and tuner will no longer tune.
Problem persists when switching to dummy load (including feedline swap).
Anyone out there seen this problem before and / or have some ideas of
the likely issues causing this?
I contacted TT service by email, yet to hear back -- but it looks
like it is quite a cost just to ship it to TN and for them to diagnose
the issue and if they still carry the parts necessary to fix it.
(which may result in a substantial cost and yet the rig being returned
w/out any repairs performed.)

I have no back-up rig and was wondering if anyone out there has a TT
rig in excess to their needs they would sell to a loving home ;-)
if so let me know what you have and what you want for it.
(note: i am willing to drive 5 to 6 hours to avoid make it easy on
seller and rig if you are close enough to my QTH)
