[ICOM] 756PROIII infinite SWR, very QRP

[Larry Young]

Phil; Remove the ant tuner from the circuit,verify that you have selected the proper ant output jack and if you get little or no power out into a dummy load,  you may have a bad driver transistor in the PA module.You may want to search this reflector archives for more on this subject.

    My 756PROIII all of a sudden has gone very QRP on output no matter 
what band, what antenna or even a dummy load. Is this the classic ESD 
caused FETs failure in the tuner problem? I've had that happen with a 
PROII a few times but don't think the SWR was infinite? RX seems  OK!
