While working cqww this weekend I noticed on 10M a few seconds after transmitting sensitivity would drop about 20db. If I TX or TUNE it comes back but then it does it again.

No clue why. This is on ANT1 and only other software running is N1MM.

Any clues or should I just put in a help desk ticket?

Tnx

Greg

    Hi Greg, I would try a factory reset (export profiles first). If that doesn't help, submit a help desk ticket.

    I am first going to switch antenna ports on the AG. I think it may be the EFRW antenna. The zero5 vertical does not show the problem.

    I had a similar issue. It ended up being a defective coax connector in the transmission line.

    I think it is the AG. It stopped working this morning. powers up but the utility does not see it and I cannot ping the IP. I just put in a ticket.
