Additional info:  It transmits on frequency, well at least really, really 
close.  When you turn on the RF amp switch, it does receive on some freqs.    
 Sometimes when you push the RF amp switch it will be S9, sometimes S5 and 
sometimes nothing.  With the RF amp switch out, nothing at all.  I think one 
of the relays has a problem. Gee, I'm glad that it looks like there isn't a 
major problem with it.  This will be the spare and remote contest rig.  Hope 
to have it fixed in the next week or so.  73 de N3WJA
