TGXL 1x3 problems
Answers
-
Have you tried tuning into dummy load on all the bands? Is it the same for all bands? Or is it only failing on 160,80,40M?
I assume you are on version firmware 1.1.8.?
Did you set the TGXL using the TGXL firmware/software properly on Windows? Does the frequency you select show the same as 6600, on the TGXL front screen? Is it LAN connected?

HI Mike,
Thanks. Yes, have tried all bands and all 3 antenna outputs. Used multiple known-good coax jumpers, no affect. Both tuner and 6600 in the same LAN switch and communicating fine.
Frequency tracks correctly on the tuner display, tune button on utility and front panel correctly switches 6600 to generate carrier. On version 1.1.8. Re-flashed firmware in case it didn't take the first time, again no change. Support just had me do a lot of these suggestions too, waiting for their response. I'm still hoping I ****-fingered something, but really setup is so simple I'm hard pressed to think of what I could be doing wrong. Acting for all the world like a calibration issue in the SWR sensor. Unless that's software fixable, afraid it's going to be heading to the shop. :(0 -
Sorry, didn't know "f a t" fingered would be censored...lol0

Oh dear! You appear to have done everything correct. My reason for the questions, is that I unfortunately had to send mine back to 4O3A in Montenegro for a repair. Mine after about 10 days, suddenly would not tune on 160,80,40, but worked fine on 30m and higher. It was very rapidly attended to by both Flex help-desk and the factory, now works better that new!!! What happened with mine is the output circuitry is switched low (160,80,40)and high (30 plus), and a low relay had failed, quite possibly due to original manufacturing after the usual burn-in. Ah well, I should open a help ticket. You will find Flex absolutely brilliant, and “all your future problems will be small ones”😹😹
73 Mike.
