Peter, you are probably outputting the IF frequency 5645 kHz (the carrier oscillator). That explains the strange setting of the RF TUNE and the high SWR on an 80m antenna. It could be that your band oscillator is not working. Do you get normal output on other bands?

I think if there is any suspicion that this is happening it would be helpful to load the transmitter into a dummy load and use a general coverage receiver to see what is coming out. The load or the transmitter will leak enough signal to hear it. The receiver does not have to be anything special as long as you can get an approximate indication of where the output is.
