[TenTec] Omni VI troubleshooting ( TX trips PS breaker )

[Darrell Gordon W4CX]

Are you working into a good antenna match?  I have this problem too when my
238 can't couple my carolina windom on 30 meters.  The power that it trips
at depends on how bad the mismatch is.  Into a dummy load everything is
fine.  DE W4CX

Hi all,

My Omni VI has developed a problem.  Does anyone recognize these symptoms?

1) RX seems fine
2) any TX immediately trips off the power supply ( model 961 )
3) power cycling the PS restores everything
4) occurs with minimum power out
5) the power supply is OK - it drives another rig to 100W without tripping

Any thoughts or suggestions before it gets sent back to TT?

Thanks!
--Mike, WQ5C
