I can¡¯t claim to be an expert yet (just finished my own build today!) but have a few questions to help out where I can:
?
What do the other tests look like (you mentioned multiple tests not being good, but how and which ones?)
Does it RX or TX as expected?
For me, I had an issue with very low TX power that I traced to a bad solder joint on L502 and resoldering it resolved things
You said ¡°two wires¡± but I assume you mean three¡ for the trifilar winding.
I would be surprised if just tight winding caused a short¡ but a bad solder joint or not-quite-melted enamel could certainly cause problems.
?
My main suggestion would be to not use IQ debug too soon in the testing. I think it depends on lots of things working right before it will even give valid results. For example, if there is no TX power, it won¡¯t be sending much signal in during the test (your values seem much smaller than what I get on mine)"
By TX, I think you mean to go to the Diagnostics screen and press "T"? Power shows as 0.0 W across all bands. SWR is about 1.2 across all bands.?
Per your comments, I'm going to check L502 T501 and T507...?
