[TenTec] Ten-Tec 229B tuner problem

[K4IA at aol.com]

Sounds like overheating in the balun.  Try feeling it to see if it is  hot 
(caution - it may be very hot!).
 
Caused by serious mismatch.  Try changing your antenna or  feedline.
 
Your old tuner worked fine - does it still?  If not - suspect the  feedline 
or antenna connection.  If it does, it may be a beefier  balun. 
 
What type of antenna are you using on what band?
