it. It works well except on 6 meters and it may be an operator problem.
When I listen on 6 mtrs I don't even hear any noise w/preamp2 on; it makes
no difference whether an antenna is connected or not. I tried ANT1 and
ANT2; also set ANT to OFF to be sure ANT1 was active. Then I tried TX and
saw about 30% power on internal meter; external meter didn't wiggle. I
checked SWR and it was infinite on everything I connected including a
commercial dummy load. The ant. tuner was unable to lower it. It seems the
circuit is not connected to the ANT1 or ANT2. Is there something I need to
set to get 6 meters to work?
