Connect the repeater to a power supply that can tell you how much current is being drawn. Determine if it¡¯s low or in the expected range.?
If low, troubleshoot the DC power circuitry. If it¡¯s as expected, troubleshoot the RF path/cabling circuitry.?
tnx

Hi Group,
????????????? I have a TKR-851 that I thought had bad finals. It had about 2 watts output. Installed a new transmitter board with new driver and final transistors and now I get 3 Watts output. If I drop it to low power, I get less than
1 watt. The power in the software is turned up. The power adjustment pot does not seem to be functional. There are no PLL errors flashing. Anyone have any thoughts on what might be going on?
