[1000mp] Strange Behaviour of FT-1000MP on 28MHz.

Thu, 4 Apr 2002 09:39:14 -0500

Try disconnecting all but the necessary cables.  Even the key.  start with
power and antenna.  Then add, key, mic, etc.  I can get my rig to lock up in
Xmit on 15m with my Bencher paddles plugged into the front jack.  Take it
out and presto problem solved.  So try key in both front and back.
