It appears that the VSWR Bridge in the KPA1500 has failed.  I say that because the KPA1500 VSWR indication remains at 0:1 no matter what.  SWR and Power indication on the radio are normal.  It appears that the failure occurred sometime Saturday, 11/25/2023, because I was able to make high power contacts in the CQWW CW contest Friday, but not on Saturday.
