Hello Gang.
(And Alan,Glen etc so patiently helping me!)

My 38 is still inoperational,ie broken.
I originally stuck the regulator in the wrong spot,and put L1 into L101's spot.
Anyway,the rig hears ok,but zero transmit.
I have gone through every dang thing I can think of and had to give
up. Well,since my 49er is qso-less,I figured I BETTER get this 38s
working or I could never justify another kit. So,took a weeks break
and now getting back into it. Can you guys please
gimme some pointers on where to start. Maybe I should check
all those voltages Paul wrote up about (on the chips).
I went through all the testy points,but,well,found my meter didnt work
right so went and got one at RS.
I am ready to make this thing work! Please,first off,is there a way
to check the chips that I might have fried to see if they are indeed
bad so I can order them from someplace?
Thanks ALL,I really DO appreciate all your support.
I am just determined to get this this to work. I even installed it
in a case! (before I knew it had zero output)

Incoherently Yours
