Check the Accessory jumper and the VFO jumper on the back of the rig before
doing anything else..... maybe just plug and and unplug them a few times to
clear any corrosion.

Subject: [TenTec] Coorsair 1 Troubles
Well, Yesterday I was doing a little shack rearaging. ( Immanent arival of
a Collins 32v1 to pair with my 75a1). So I had all the radio's down on the
back desk. ( I have a main opperating/contesting desk and a back desk with
my collection of older( and often better more fun to opperate outside the
contesting fray) radio's Well after making the room I was reinstalling the
Corsair. Got it all hooked back up and hit the switch and well teh vFO is
way wacky. Showing some very odd numbers. When I step through the bands it
goes from .09... on 160 to 9. something on higher bands to 98.somethign on
15/10 etc. Ok so WHAT have I done to my nice Corsair? All I did was take
everything off move it to a couch where it sat for a few hours with my Drake
4 line and move it back. I don't remember any big drops or bumps. Any
suggestions? Places to start?
If this sounds like something (and most things are) beyond my meager
abilities to troubleshoot and repair. Do you all think its worth a trip to
Ten Tec or?? Should I be looking for a replacement....8(
Any advice appreciated
Thanks and 73
