I just had this happen this weekend and what I was doing was reinstalling OS software drivers AFTER a hard drive dual boot (XP and WIN7) Installation on a new hard drive and what I ran into was on my mother board a couple of PCI Hardware management drivers. These two Intel drivers would cause PowerSDR (SVN 3560) to loose ALL TX output power until I did a reset of my Data base then once I rebooted the computer it would again loose TX Power until I did another database reset. I pulled out the two Intel PCI management driver files and shazaam all worked great again. This happened on both WIN7 (every time) and on WIN XP every once in a while.
These were the latest Drivers I found to downloaded from the Motherboard manufacture and INTEL WEB Site. I have noticed no problems with out these PCI Management Drivers in the things I'm doing. 73's and hope this helps.

Everything looks and sounds the same whether there is power or no power (well except for the guages, where both PSDR and the external meter show zero when there is no power) Of course, clicking FULL TUNE appears to put the radio into transmit, but when no power out, no relay clicks from the ATU. When the problem is occurring, clicking ATU runs for several seconds with no power out and then starts tuning, but the no output power detected message appears and tuning fails. Setup-General-hardware config-Receive only is NOT checked. Setup-General-Options-Disable PTT is NOT checked. Setup-General-Options-All Mode Mike PTT IS CHECKED. Symptoms are the same whether I click on MOX or key the external switch. On 2/19/2010 6:56 PM, Neal Campbell wrote: > Does the radio appear to go into transmit mode?
