Hi all, I left the K2 antenna plugged in today and went to work. We did get a fast moving torrential downpour with some lightning activity in the area where I work which is about 20 miles north of the shack. So I'm not sure if there was any lightning in the area of the shack.
Anyway, I used the K2 last night and then shut it down. Turned it on when I got home from work and it receives with no problem but shows Hi Cur now in TUNE mode, on all bands. Its been raining all day long, and I have a doublet with 450 ladder and a SGC external antenna tuner mounted on a tree. I will check the tuner box as soon as I can but so far the K2 is a no go on xmit. Also, the supply voltage really starts to sag when I set the power pot up above 6 watts on tune. I have the KPA100 on board. I wish now I had a 100watt dummy load. The power supply is a brand new 7AMP switcher so I'm not suspecting it as the first thing on the list. Has anyone seen the K2 act like this before?
