[TenTec] PARAGON Keying problem

Just tried the Paragon into a dummy load and it seemed to work fine. You
might be right about the rf.  I wonder if it could be related to the
snow/ice on the antennas.  I haven't made any changes lately that might
cause a change in the rf situation. I will start doing some checking to see
if I can isolate the cause of the rf.  

Thanks for the input!

Ken, KB3FK

Ken,

I've had that happen to my Paragon with RF getting into the radio. Have 
you tried it into s dummy load with solid coax?
