TS-450S output reduced
Hi
This is VU2YK. Last week I used my TS-450S and it was in perfect working condition. Amazing receiver and get unsolicited comments about nice TX audio with stock mic. The lightning fast relayless Rx/Tx switching is noiseless and any CW Ops delight. Full 100 watts out on all HF bands. Yesterday I switched on the rig, and shock and awe ! Output power reduced to 20 watts ! All else remains same. Low SWR, Power supply rock steady. ALC indicator does not move, indicating some problem inside. I did not touch the rig in the last few days. The important symptoms are : 1. NO ALC movement of meter 2. Power output down to 20 W on 20 M, low on other bands 3. Shack temp had become very hot last few days. Day temp in shade is 40 degrees C plus. 4.I checked all power and antenna cable connections. Receive is 100 % OK and power cable are clean. SWR is 1:1 Will appreciate any help in diagnosing and rectifying the problem. Thanks ! 73 Rahul VU2YK New Delhi |
