Problem solved. Many thanks to both Brian & Julian for getting me off the hardware fault track and returning to the configuration/setup track. I somehow got the RX Ant enabled on 6 Meters for both Main & Sub. Explains why I was able to Xmit on my yagi but unable to receive anything (since I have nothing connected to the RX Ant Input!) While I have egg on my face I also have a big smile. Sure glad it was a loose nut behind the main tuning knob and not a real hardware problem!
