[Yaesu] FT 450 problem

[Danny Shaver]

I just bought a like new (only a few month old) FT450AT from an elderly ham.
I haven't talked to him yet, but would like to get anyone's help before I
call him and possibly send the rig back. It works flawlessly with the
exception that there is no transmit on the 80 meter band. Every other band
works just fine with 100 watts out, and 80 works great on receive, but there
is no transmit in any mode according to the 20 watt scale on my station
meter, and none showing on the radio itself. It is transmitting on some
small level, for I can hear it on my TS930 receiver at an S5 level (the 930
is hooked up to a longwire). I have done a master reset twice to no avail,
and the RF power is set for 100 watts. Any ideas? Thanks in advance- Danny
