Good morning.
Checked the 1 meg resistor and it is high at 1.5 meg. I'm feeding audio to the Ranger with a Daiwa RF-440 so impedance is not an issue. Installed the 10K resistor and the noise is gone (I think). I can't hear anything on the demod on my HP spectrum analyzer or on a receiver. The waveform still has a very low level of AC (far less than 1%) but the highly distorted waveform is gone. No time for air check until Thursday night but hopefully the reports will be good.
Thanks to everyone for all the helpful suggestions.
