However since installing the 2M module some two weeks ago I have a mic/power problem on the HF bands. When keying the mic on 2M I see a 10 W reading on the power barograph and the power reading in the VFO B area is 1.01 Mw which is what I would expect. Switching to a HF band and keying the mic I see one bar on the power barograph and 60 W in the VFO B area which is my power setting. To generate power out - more than one bar - I need to hold the mic almost in my mouth and at an angle so the top of the mic is nearer to my lips. However generating power out is inconsistent. Mic gain is about 56, compression is 5, MIC SEL is FP.L BIAS. I have the TX EQ set to reduce the base and slightly increase the treble frequencies. What is wrong? Appreciate any ideas.
