This may be especially noticeable when switching BANDS, or if TUNING is performed too frequently. The following procedure should reduce or eliminate this tendency. Perts Required Q69: Digitel Trensistor DTC124ES R304: 5.6K ohm 1/6 W Resistor RD14BB2C562J Procedure: 1. Add the circuit as shown below. 2. After the circuit has been installed adjust VR4 for a 10-15 watt output when the antenna tuner operates. \ Q37 |-----------> To PC / | 5.6 K (added) | | \ Added |----------->to D45 Anode / In | GND Time required for this modification is 1 hour or less
