I've had problems the last couple of weeks with my IC756 Pro III
shutting down in the middle of transmitting. This weekend I traced it
to the fuses (which were getting warm to the touch). I notice that
my SS-30 power supply reports ~ 20 amps being drawn on transmit, and
the fuses are rated at 20 amps.
** Is 20 amp draw during full-power transmit normal?
** Are the fuses supposed to be 20A?
** Should I replace with 25A fuses, or 20A slow-blow, or is there a
bigger problem here?
Thanks & 73 - Jim AD1C
