It sounds like it might be RF getting into the Audio input .. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Art Gartner Sent: Saturday, March 08, 2008 9:28 AM To: George Steube; flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: Re: [Flexradio] Tune Power on Flex5000
This is not a spike this is constant. When you click on tune you get 115 watts out (100 on the external meter). It doesn't matter what you have set on the tune block on the transmit tab. Again keying in the USB (LSB) with no audio input yields the same 115/100 watts. Art At 10:12 AM 3/8/2008 -0600, George Steube wrote: >Art >See my post on power spikes.
