Hello again !

Thank you for all your advice on my last problem. Which is now sorted as previously described. The set runs well.

I have bought another 320 for a good price and have tried this one out. It is slightly different in that the front panel is brown and not black as on my other one. Another manufacturer or a later build perhaps??

Anyway, this one has a fault which I ask for advice on before I open it up.

It receives well but does not appear to transmit.
Also, no tone heard when pressing the pressel or morse key when I try to tune.
The meter does not move on TX or tune.
It shows battery volts ok.
The ATU works by me tuning by EAR for the loudest noise.

The synth works, I think, because the out of band tone goes when the band switch
is placed in the correct position.

Any advice before I start will be welcome.

Kind Regards
David 2E0EYR
