[WriteLog] 1000MP stuck in transmit

[DH5HV]

Hello all !

Hmh, maybe not exactly an answer but maybe a hint....!


We had this problem at our VHF-contest station.
Rig was a IC910 which automatically jumped on TX when the PTT of the
amplifier was connected to the PTT out of the IC910...!

We tested a bit and we found out that the TRX gets to PTT not only when the
input is really shorted but also when there is a resistance of aprox.
150-200 OHM !


OK this is not the COM port, but maybe it helps to look for the problem !

PS: If I am out of order to the problem excuse these idea !
