[Yaesu] FT-1000MP poor monitor audio

[Tor-Björn Nylund]

Hello

I have the very latest model of FT1000MP. Now that all other problems I have had with it, has been removed, I got a new one.

It is very poor audio in 15meters when the moni button is pushed on. Both cw and ssb seems to bee the same.

Monitoring my audio in cw seems to be distorted,  bit chirpy and clicking without strenght in sub rx s-meter. Still output is 100W.
BUT when I use either IPO or TUNER, problem disappears. I also noticed, that if I reduce power to about 50W and less, my monitoring audio will come better, without ipo / tuner pushed on.

Monitoring my audio in ssb seems to be distorted and without strengt in sub rx s-meter. Still output pwr is 100W.

I have asked friends in the other end of qso, if I have problems in tx audio, but they could not see any.

Problem is at worst in 15m and similar but much more less on 17 & 12m, cw/ssb using 100W.
Could this problem be only in my monitor circuit which getting too much of RF, or is my PA really flattopping or what?
What can I do to it?
