Thanks for the reply.? That is good to know.? I did see in the FT950 manual that it was advised to run it at 1/3 to 1/2 power if making long digital mode transmissions.??? My FT450AT handled it like that fine for 2 1/2 years, then it didn't. ? 73 John AF5CC ? Sent using Zoho Mail ? ? ? ---- On Tue, 28 Jan 2025 11:23:05 -0600 Lee Mannchen <email@...> wrote --- ?
