Hi guys,
I have a Yaesu FT920 that has low RF power output.
Seems like I can only get 1 watt or so out of it in any mode.
Before I go troubleshooting or looking for a repair facility, I wonder
if maybe there is anything I could have overlooked in how I have
it set up? I am using a dipole with a Palstar Tuner and I am not
using the internal tuner. The SWR is 1:1
Also, of course, the "RF POWER" knob is turned up all the way.
Is there anything that I might be forgetting that could be set
wrong to cause this?
I am going to check the MENU for the port settings for each antenna
and see if the power is set low. Maybe do a RESET of the system.
I have about 1 amp into the radio on receive and about 5 amps
on transmit. On certain bands and with certain settings, I seem to
get a little more power out.
Have others seen this problem, and what did you do to fix it?
Regards - Brian, AF4K
