TS570 transmit problem
 

Can anyone shed any light on this?

My TS570 transmit power seems to be limited to minimum whatever level I
choose through the menu. I don't have a power meter, but with a dummy
load,it will only draw a maximum of just under 3 watts on any band. (cw).
The AT doesn't work either. When I invoke it, the meter shows max. ref.
power and a relay chatters until turn off the AT.
I'm suspisious that one or more relays in the bandswitching circuits have
failed.
Otherwise it works fine as a QRP rig.
Thanks and 73 for 2004,
