- Hello all I have a problem with the above combination. Sometimes the Acom indicates * HOT SWITCHING *. It happens on perhaps 25% of the occasions when I hit the ptt. Any ideas please ? Thanks John G4

- Patrick I had a Commander II. I thought the HT voltage was low, but the problem was the voltage divider resistors had changed their value over time, and so the front panel meter was quite inaccurate.
