    I'm having a problem with my connex. For some reason I've been showing 9 watts on a dead key with no swing on modulation. Does anybody have any idea what the issue may be. I've never worked on a radio before but I think I could handle a minor repair

    as much as that radio costs new, i dont think i would attempt a magic screwdriver repair at all. take it to a professional so you dont accidentally end up with a 300 dollar paperweight.

    Just a thought but make sure you are in AM, not FM mode, with the mike gain up.

    I've checked all that, ive tried changing mics. And keep getting the same results. But it doesn't seam to do it all the time. I can mess with it for 5 min or so and it wount do it. The come back and it does. So I'm just lost.
