TT'ers,

I blew something in my 238 while CQ'ing on 10 with high power.  Antenna was 
my F12 C3 low in the band where it is over 2:1, but not much over.

Didn't smell any smoke.  It still works, but doesn't have the matching 
range it used to. For instance, it would no longer tune an 80 meter dipole 
cut for CW in the phone band.  I have been qrt since last spring and don't 
remember more specifics than that.

Any suggestions what to look at first (and second, third, etc.)  Can't see 
anything burned up.

73,

Ron - WA9IRV
