 Mode:USB 
   No Mod.
   VR13 
 
Remove the B751(PB-100) from the Main PCB. 
Connect a DC Ammeter (+) to TP4, (-) to TP3. 
Adjust VR13 for 50mA reading on the DC Ammeter. 
Ditto VR14 Connect a DC Ammeter (+) to TP4, (-) to TP2. 
Adjust VR14 for 50 mA reading on DC Ammeter. 
3 1mV Mod.  L25   Disconnect DC Ammeter. Reinstall the B751 to the Main PCB. 
Connect A RF Power meter to the ANT. jack. Connect a RF VTVM, an oscilloscope and a FM Linear Detector across a RF Dummy Load to the RF Power meter. 
Adjust L25 for maximum reading on the RF VTVM. 
During this step, set the AF oscillator so that the output is less than 20V. 
30 mV Mod.  VR5  Adjust VR5 for 32.5V reading on the RF VTVM.
