## Discrepancy

AFTER TAKEOFF ON GEAR RETRACTION, "A" SYSTEM HYDRAULIC QUANTITY DROPPED TO 1/2 GALLON.  AFTER LOWERING GEAR, QUANTITY SHOWED FULL, THEN WENT BACK TO 1/2 GALLON.  GAUGE JUMPED AROUND AFTER LANDING AND WENT TO FULL.  SUPPLEMENTAL DATA UPDATE:  REPLACED "A" SYSTEM HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR QUANTITY TRANSMITTER.  SHOP VERIFIED 'DEAD SPOT' FOUND IN TRANSMITTER.
