L6 is good, it measures 1 ohm. But I'm seeing only 1 to 4 ohms from min to max RF gain. That tallies with what I'm hearing- the RF gain has almost no effect on received sigs. So I'll look for whatever is pulling R1 down.
Thanks again- it always helps to have a second set of "eyes". 73 Bruce N7CEE ------------------ If you can lift one end of L6, you can then tell which side of it the short is on. Since part of the mod was to install T2, I'd suspect it's somewhere there. Maybe a short between the turns of the two windings since both the primary and secondary of T2 have one end at DC ground.
