Is this a problem that has just started or did you get the power supply working like this? I just wondered if there had been any previous repairs done. Last one I had do this I found that the .1 ohm 5 watt resistors off the transistors had been replaced with a .5 ohm. It would show full voltage until you tried to key the radio. |

i would start checking voltages at the input and output then put a load on it and check the voltage again |

Start at the regulator IC. Could be something else but that is where I would start. Also check any zener diodes for correct voltage. |
