46-480 Recapped now nothing.....
#5

Hi Lawrence, and welcome!
I know this has been mentioned many times, but when recapping, one or two should be done at one time, then a quick test done. Starting with the filers first. We have seen many radios that were somewhat working, turn into a non working set. By replacing one or two at a time, you will instantly know where to look when something does not work. Bad part (rare) or a miswiring mistake.
Eric has good advice to get the troubleshooting started, and hope you can find the (usually simple) mistake you may have made. Let us know what you find.
