Good News-Bad News

[Thom LaCosta]

THe good news is that my slinky, inside the house, with a set of counterpoise
wires seems to work....not great, but I can reach out and touch folks.

The bad news is that the af gain control no longer does anything...audio is
running wide open...so I am in the Old Timer Mode...things are controlled by the
RF gain.

How difficult is it to replace the control?  I don't see up close that well and
have "the shakes"....but I'm willing to try.

I have visions of my neighbors, all of which seem to come from the mountains and
carry ax handles not accepting that is is perfectly normal to listen to loud
beeps in the night.

SOrry...the K2.  One of the list members told me what needed to be done, which
may not work due to some limitations here.....

I'll look at the builders page and see who'se close to me in Baltimore that I
can use to fix it.
