Diode might be jumpered because it is open? I have a few BA542 to spare.
You can call Ten-Tec and get some sent to you very easily, and very
inexpensively.
They sent me a dozen for free.

I've lost sensitivity on the 6.5 - 10.5 section of the Paragon 585. It's
happened
a few times before and was cured by replacing Diode D12, a 1N4148, on the
RX high pass filter
board. It didn't work this time. I swapped diode D5 with one on the same
board and
it still did not work. I jumpered D5 with a wire and it works. The diode
is a type
BA482 which I cannot find. Any ideas why it works jumpered? Anyone have a
source
of this type diode aside from Ten Tec? I'd like to buy a few. The 1N4148's
are in
Radio Shack so no problem there. Thanks,
Paul
