Bob this may be the LPF repair as described on my website.  I say MAY
because this repair typically manifests itself as low power on SOME bands.

The disassembly instructions take you right down to the finals and if you
need to replace them it's simple to get to them with these instruction.
Enter the site and the Argo fix is in the "Ten-Tec Information" section.

Again good luck.

Many thanks, Rick.

Mine has low power on all bands, by the looks of it, so it may be the finals instead of the diodes in the LPF circuits - unless they're all blown!

By the way, I spotted on your website the note about the 1208 board. Very interesting... I've just picked up a part-finished 1208 on EBay, so I'll watch out for the problem.
