How can I resolve 6300 transverter transmit problem?
Best Answer

I finally found the problem. Me. Watching a Flex video on transverter setup. the TX PWR column in the TX Settings table was mentioned, "power in percent not Watts." When I corrected my mistake, transverter is now working fine. Thanks, Bill0

Hi Bill, can you post a screen shot of your XVTR tab of your Radio Setup screen?
Here is how I have my 6400 set up to use my Ukranian transverter:

Hi Bill, that 15 dBm Max Power looks suspicious. I think that the transverter function in the Flex is only capable of up to +10 dBm. Change that down to something 10 or lower (5.5 gives me 10 W out on mine). If it still does not work, I would submit a help desk ticket.

Len, various power settings did not make any difference. The transverter has an in line attenuator allowing for up to 5 Watts input...Bill0

Can you bypass the attenuator? That's about 30dB (10dBm is 10mW) so I think that is the problem.

Yep, I think Geoff is right. I don't have the version with the attenuator, but I think it is straightforward to take it out of the circuit. I don't know if it needs to be unsoldered or if there are connectors, but a quick peek in the case should tell you what to do.

Thanks Len and Geoff...There is no RF output from the transverter's BNC connector. Using another transverter without attenuator did not work. There is either some obscure software setting inhibiting output or a component failure...Bill0
