Well it's an older 25 with the side mic connection... I solder jumper across R108 and changed R43 to a 4.7 ohm. gapped my pins for the mic. and now it wont transmit through my meter at all. I also tried cleaning up the solder on the final.

Can anyone tell me if the legs on the final are supposed to be soldered together.
