I picked up a older Non DX recently, and compared to a newer export the RX does seem quieter, If I kick on my Pre-amp it seems normal to what I am used to. If there is no other issues with it and a alignment dont help there is a Mod to replace the RX diodes D34,D35 to schottky devices out there. So it may have been a common request. Good luck, I believe I read that they were common to have overload on RX also from someone close running high power. |
