Woke up to 0 power on my 6500 lets make sure im not missing anything.

Steve (N9SKM)

Was trying for VK0 last night Rtty with no joy. Everything was working normally, Fast forward to this morning and i cant get anything out of the radio. Tune button or anything no power out. Dax tx is off which shouldnt make a difference for the tune button. I also tried it into the dummy load.

i was on 1.17 but updated to the most current SmartSDR with no change

Any suggestions? I put in a ticket but hopefully its something ****.

Check to make sure you have TX enabled on your active slice. I've come back from working split and not had TX on anywhere.

Jim Gilliam

When you updated, did both the DAX and CAT programs automatically come up?

DItto what George said. If you were working split, you may not have the red TX annunciator lit up, indicating that you don't have transmit enabled. It has caught me a number of times. The Flex software/hardware does not have the "bandstacking registers" of other rigs (yet.)

The one that always gets me is the High Cut setting.  Make sure it is set high for digital.

Tx is active and the radio switches to TX. red light on and relay switches.

Dax and Cat both came up.

I have loaded the default tx profile and have tried all modes.

Have you done a factory reset?

Too close to a band edge?      That caught me a few times.       73, Jim

Well the factory reset got it.... Tx was active on the slice i was trying and the light was turning red and the TR relay was switching so i dont know what was going on.

Phew. Now if i could just get some propagation.
