I have a factory built 1208 (20m to 6m transverter). When the transceiver is on
and 6m is selected, the input SWR is about 2.7:1 at 14.0 MHz. The SWR drops to
1.4:1 at about 14.6 MHz (tested with my MFJ antenna analyzer). This is using a
50 ohm dummy load for the 6m antenna output.
I spoke with Garry at TenTec. He thought that maybe the input resistor bank was
blown, but I checked that with a VOM and it shows about 55 ohms and there is no
discoloration on the resistors.
I've not measured power output, but I do hear a strong signal right where
expected in a second 6m receiver when I key the transceiver with a 20m signal.
Any other suggestions?
73,
Mark, N8ME
