X6100 has no power in transmission #antenna-power #bugs #dc-power


 

Hi,
it happens to me that the X6100 gives a very short "hit" of transmission and then does not emit anything.
I specify, I give a call in CW (I use mostly CW but in SSB it is the same thing).
I see that it gives a peak of power and then the power goes to zero. I put another radio in listening and I see that some power comes out but it must be very little (I do not have a power meter that reads such low powers) but tone and modulation work. The reception works well as always.
I tried to do factory resets, install recent and older versions, I tried with R1CBU. I tried with internal battery, external, 13.6V of the Yaesu power supply but I did not find anyone who wants to see what it has. I also tried with ATU ON and OFF. I scanned with APP SWR and the scan works (the YAESU hears the BEEPS) but the scale is flat at 1:1. It is true that X6100 does not have huge costs but not having a repairman is embarrassing and unpleasant.
Does anyone have suggestions that I have not tried?
Thanks for any support or ideas.

Hi Mauro,
you don’t tell us how was your Charger option on or off during your tests.?
Maybe that could influence your issue.?

Thanks, no I hadn't tried... but both in ON and OFF the same problem happens as before.

I had the same situation with my 6100. I had it for a few months but only used the receiver. Once I started trying to transmit with it I found no output, all bands, all modes. I worked with my dealer (Radioddity) and they wound up sending me a replacement unit under warranty. My replacement works fine, all bands and all modes.

Sadly I can offer no information as to the root cause of the problem. Others in this group who had a similar problem stated that they solved it with a firmware update. This solution did not solve my problem. Good luck!
