Subject: [Yaesu-FT-101] FT-101 only transmits on 40m

Hi,
I got this FT-101 about 2 years ago. I went through some checks to make sure tubes were neutralized and no obvious burned parts. Still has original tubes
It seems to transmit and receive quite fine on 40m. I only had 40m dipole so didn't bother to transmit on other bands.
This year, I got an old tuner, so put up a simple long-wire antenna.?
Again, 40m seems to be fine, I was able to get QSOs on CW and SSB.

But I realized there is no output power on other bands. IC goes up and down as per the "carrier" knob. But on PO meter setting nothing comes out. Nor can I see it on my power/SWR meter. (again 40m it seems to work as it should).

I am a bit stumped. What would you suggest I look at first?
