I have K1 SN950 with the 4 band module, Antenna Tuner and battery module. It has been working like a champ for 3 years. Now, it has decided it does not want to transmit on 20 meters and weakly on 30M.
Radio works fine on all other bands. Radio receives fine on all bands. When I attempt to tune on 20M, it fails to get a match, drops power to 0.1 (no matter how high I initially set it) and reports "Plo". If I go in and check the SWR from the last tune (rx.x) it reports r0.0. On 30M I do get a tune, I get a reported SWR of r9.9. If I check the antenna with a SWR Analyzer, it reports that the antenna is about 1.7 at the frequency I am trying to use on 20M and about 2.1 on 30M. I put a power meter in line with the radio: It reports near zero output on 20M, about half power on 30M and appropriate power on all other bands. If I swap out the antenna and put in a dummy load, the meter shows R6.3 and about half power on 30M, and Plo again and no measurable output on 20 M. I manually cycle through all the relays --- per the troubleshooting guide --- and they all are clicking --- none appear to be hung or dead. Any Ideas?
