[Icom] Re: Icom AH4 Quit on me

[Brian Carling]

Thank you, Sasi...

Trouble is I have tried all bands, I have tried two antennas AND it was working one 
day but not the next. Nothing changed!

I will test my coax and see though...

I don't THINK the coax is shorted because I can receive strong signals on it.... 
However, that alone is not total proof

Another guy replying has had zero success with his AH4 even after sending it 
back for repair, and is about to give up on Icom for ever!

I will try a completely different piece of coax and or a dummy load
(I have one I can use in my tuner at least!)
and see what it does then...

This is VERY frustrating. I feel like I just wasted $270.00
