Have you tried switching the load to ANT 2 ? Is the power supply current changing as you raise the power ????

yes, thanks. Keying loops are off and transmitter is ON. I do have the rig going into TX and showing also 1.0 SWR all the time! Also the pot indicator shows power but the meter does not and also nothing is going out by external wattmeter. It shows 1.0 SWR also to empty antenna port. Thus switching from ANT 1 to ANT 2 does not help.

I will try the recommended battery reset and will also check if the PS current goes up at TX (I am quite sure it does not...).

I wonder how those guys solved it who have had this issue before?

Do you have the keying loops turned off and the Transmitter turned on
in the TX Menu?

Hi, I have lost any TX output from OII. Pwer can be turned up to 100w but no TX out in any mode, everything else seems normal. RX seems to be OK. I saw some messages in archives looking for solution to the same issue but no cure. Tried Master reset and also reinstalled firmware, no change. Is there anything I can try or should I send it to repairs?? Has it been established what the problem is?
