Doug Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's an odd one..
I just flipped on the rig and tuned up on 160. Everything went well, and I tuned up to 100 watts out as I normally do. Then, while waiting for the 3-500s to warm up I switched in the antenna to touch up the antenna coupler. And, as I was sending a string of dits the output faded to near zero watts. I shifted to 80 meters and tuned up -- 100 watts out, no problem. Back to 160. No power output... Turned the rig off and came back 15 minutes later and tried again. I warmed up the T-4XC for a minute, hit the key and had 100 watts out on 160. So, I let it sit for 5 minutes and tried again -- no power out. It *seems* like as the rig warms up the power fades to zero (on 160 only). All other bands are fine. Any ideas? 73, -Doug, W7KF ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
