when you key the banana mike,oh it's an am transmitter and ssb receiver. the sound is kinda "thud"and then you hear a slight ping. I've changed the cap to a 20,40 and 80 mfd and still no change to the ping and some times you get no ping at all. Checked all tubes both trans/rec. The radio receives, transmits and has great modulation,just no ping,short or long.

Jake,
I would try a new 12AX7 in the receiver first. If that doesn't help, then you might have to replace the three section filter capacitor in the receiver.

Hi Alan,
How have you been?
Bill and I are fine. My MK III is still working great. I power it up a few times a month. I don't use it as my base much. Just enough to remind everyone what a great radio sounds like.
Take care.
