[Icom] 756proII tuner

[Bill Archer]

I had a similar problem with a new proII, HF worked fine but the rig had 
a fit on  6m.. Turned out I had forgotten about the low pass filter with 
a 30mhz cutoff that was hiding behind the desk. Removed the filter and 
everything worked fine except for the bright red glow in the facial 
area. Hope this wasn't your problem.

>checked ant with mfj anz. all ok 1.2 swr. shut tuner off and keyed radio into the dummy load..on ssb.. 50.125... the radio went to full output as soon as I hit the ptt button,did this in all modes ... hit ptt  and get full 110 watts out as though you were in fm. I reset the CPU TWICE ...no help. This only happens on 6 meters ,HF IS FINE.
