Check C-128 , If this cap goes bad , it will cause
dc voltage to leak into audio causing a buzz sound on TX.

You do not say if you DX33 is the HML or the HP model.
Check the choke on the back of the mike socket, it maybe O/C.

Try replacing TR51, the transistor bolted to the side of the radio near the power socket right hand side.

If you need more swing than the radio will do from stock.
Then you will most likely need to do some sort of swing modification, as it not something we do hear in the UK.
You will need to do a search on the forum or do a search on Google and if you do not find what you are look for, then put a new post on the forum under CB Radio Modifications.
