Am experiencing RF on the chassis of the radio when transmit. *Have good ground system, clean power supply, resonant antenna w/ low SWR. When I touch the antenna of my RF Field Strength meter to any metal on the radio, wattmeter or power supply it pins the needle. *Opened radio, looked at ant output connectors, could find no problems or bad solder joints. *Installed 1:1 choke balun on coax at radio, no effect on problem. *Hear myself talking in the headset and when transmitting it triggers a motion detector light mounted outside and above the ham shack. *Same effect when using a dummy load. *Defect inside the radio, anyone experienced this? 73, Steve Thanks to everyone who responded. The problem of hearing myself when transmitting is a problem in the radio as I suspected. The motion light issue is of no concern, they are inherently prone to RF setting them off. This one is only about 5' above the radio on the outside wall. My main question was directed to if anyone had this type problem with their TS-570. 73, Steve |
