With the shield on and antenna disconnected the signal is a lot stronger when touching the 36 cap; the signal is as strong when touching the 44 RF cap as it is when touching the ant connection but a lot weaker than the 36 cap touch. I exchanged the 39/44 RF tube with two spares.... no change in signal strength. The cap replacement looks professional to me but I suppose I should review it ...starting where?
