Don, Thanks for the quick response. I hope it is something this simple (stupid)! I will go back and try again. I was reading the power and the SWR, so I thought that should have been transmitting full power.
I did take the KPA100 apart and checked soldering, checked for possible shorts, etc. and found nothing but RFC1 soldering not looking great - will check that connection before I reassemble the unit. 73, Tom KG3V Quoting Don Wilhelm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Tom, > > How are you initiating transmit?
