QMX Using Z-Match ATU Blown Finals -- Twice


 

I've used variations pretty much the same Z-Match tuner for many years.
Since the first NorCal BLT

Wasn't trying to get more power, just reducing the reflected RF for better SWR.
Supply voltage was 13.6 and band was 20 m.?

I don't recall exactly what happened the first time. But it was when I switched from
Adjust to Operate.? One suggestion was to reduce power and don't hot-switch.
I don't think I hot-switched. Another suggestion was an inductive spike.
Anyway, sent it off, got it fixed, and the same thing happened again. This time
supply voltage at 9, 30m, and I know I didn't hot switch. Also adjusted for noise
peak first.



I've used this tuner with everything from Rock-Mites to a uSDX+ with no problems. uSDX finals are
similar to the QMX, I think.? Used the same setup with the uSDX right after and no problem.?
