Couple of weeks ago i got my hands on a used rig, an FT817D plus an Elecraft T1 tuner. The tuner worked fine until yesterday, doing the autotuning at band change and tuning when pressing the "tune" button.
But now when i press the tune button or switch between bands and transmit within the flashing green LED, the tuner stands still, not cycling thru the relays to find the best match, as like it's not connected to an RF source at all. Thanks to the CAT cable, when i switch bands on the radio, the T1 it still does the same, and still retains the last stored SWR match saved on the various bands, but if i switch to another antenna and try to tune, as mentioned, it does not tune. I tried tuning in CW, AM, FM, talking over SSB, but to no avail, the tuning does not starts. I tried switching to a new battery, same effects. I tried to listen to the slow CW Info, but not much information. I decided to open the T1 and eventually check for cracked solder joints and aside from fatigue ones on the BNCs that i could solder easily, nothing out of the ordinary came out to my eyes. Any idea from more expert minds? -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Elecraft-T1-doesn-t-tune-nor-read-power-levels-tp7630887.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
