Problem:
The transmitter gain will not calibrate. Receive an error code:
Starting 5 watt calibration
Calibrating at 1.900 MHz
Calibration power settled at " 0.0 W ;"
Elapsed time: 6 seconds
Tx Gain calibration failed because transmit power did not reach the expected value
5 watt calibration failed
Radio is a new build. Checking out at low power. Installed the 100 watt power amplifier, then removed the amplifier to test at low power per book instructions. I have reinstalled the PA jumper block for all test runs.
The radio will not receive Hz filter and it is properly configured.
Is there anything else I need to do to get back to low power configuration?
