Transmit interlock on 60 meters

I have been using my 6500 on 60 meters for years. All of a sudden, I get a message that transmit interlock is preventing me from transmitting. This has never happened before. I have the newest software. Perhaps this is another bug in the new, untested version! Any ideas out there?

    Len,


    Thanks so much for that. That's exactly what happened! I had the transmit bandwidth set to 3KC from another band. Thanks so much. It now is working fine. Totally forgot about the bandwidth limits on 60 meters! Been a ham since 1960 and learning something every day! Thanks again.

    Hi Richard, what do you have your TX Filter Low Cut and High Cut values set to? If they are too wide, TX will be inhibited.

    I'm glad that was it!
