David,
The XV144 does not do that on its own.
If you are driving it with a K2 or K3, I know you will be OK,
But if you are driving the XV144 with something else, be certain that it
does not produce a poweer spike in the 28 MHz output.

Having just been told the reason I've blown the finals in 2 (possibly 3) 2m

what the Tx power is set to on the FT-857) before it settles down to the power
set in the menu...
Can anyone tell me if the XV144 does this - I have one I've been meaning to
build for some time and I guess this is the final straw that will get me to do
so.
