Thanks to all for the replies.
To respond to a couple questions/suggestions,
I am sure I am on th right antenna port, and have
tried both.
I do see some fwd power even though the swr
bar is showing infinite swr on 160 - 30 meters.
The rig does much better on the higher bands...
20 - 10 meters, where the swr is 1.5 to 2:1, and
almost full power can be seen. (This swr is still a
bit higher than normal).
The diode problem in the bridge circuit has been
mentioned, but wouldn't this affect all bands, not
just the low ones??
Anyway, tech support quoted me a 12 to 15 day
turnaround so UPS has the rig now :-( I'll report
what they find.
73 and thanks,
Gene Davies
