Chris,
I've seen the same thing in the past, but not this time.
Thanks.

I had one of the PA (BS170s) fail, became a resistor - possibly due to a transient high swr.? The output power had dropped substantially (5W to 2.5W). With the current firmware Q507 is turned on, even though in the receive mode until after the first transmit, this caused the initial current to be high until until after the first transmit (~100mA higher). You can find the bad BS170 since it is warmer. Need to check it after power on before a transmit.??
