Hi all, don't know that this question went out on the list:

Friday I was tuning up my T-4XC on 80M.  Heard a very loud POP came from 
somewhere behind the front panel.  No smell of smoke or oazone.

Never tune for more than 4 or 5 seconds at a time and never off-resonance 
more than 1 or 2 seconds.  Before this incident, the xmtr tuned up to 120 to 
140 watts (according to my TW-1 talking watt meter); after, it now peaks at 
about 80W.  I had a QSO afterwords, so I know it's working some.  Antenna 
match is about 1.3/1.

Do you think I did something real bad or maybe it's just a tube or a plate 
choke or something?  Where should I start to diagnose?

Thanks, anybody.

73, Howard, WA9RYF
