[TenTec] OMNII Problem

[wo8l at aol.com]

Hi,

I have an OMNI VII issue.

When I boot up the rig, it initially shows a 1.1 to 1 swr but quickly goes to 9.1.1 to 1 and won't transmit or tune up with the auto tuner or a big manual tuner.

I've used two AC power supplies and a battery.  Two antennas and a dummy load.  Same result. Sometimes the rig shows a high current message.

Have done partial and full resets to no avail.

Ideas?

It always worked fine before this.

Maybe the high current protecting rectifier is bad?
