It was fixed by a new cable between the SWR and radio. Now reads correctly
around 2 on channel 19. Thanks for all the hints and suggestions!

Got a SWR meter and trying to test the radio, do as instructions from web,
set switch, adjust to cal mark, change switch etc, no matter what I do
it's
no where near 1:1 always over in the red still?? WTF? Could it be the
radio,
purchased off EBay and of course it was new!
