Default Problem with KWM-2A

Just got around to trying to put a KWM-2A I bought a few years back on the
air. It's in roughish condition, but seems complete and usable. After
replacing a failed diode in the power supply, it recieves fine.

I've been trying to transmit, and there seems to be a problem. It tunes up
OK into my dummy load - the power meters in the dummy load indicate RF is
flowing while it's in the LOCK mode. When I try to transmit using the PTT
microphone that came with it, the relays clack when I key it, but...no RF
out. I'm wondering if this is a common problem - anyone heard of it?
