I am not very familiar with a Carolina Windom but I believe it is just a horizonal wire fed off center. These types of antennas can have significant common mode current on the feedline. Perhaps there is more current on 40m than on 80m so it works on 80m. A resonant dipole with a choke may

Pete, The first thing to check for a HI CUR warning is the power supply voltage under full transmit load. If it is low, it will cause a HI CUR condition. The other thing that could cause it is a problem in the T/R switch or Low Pass Filter - the fact that it continues into an RX cycle points
