I had this same problem with an Acom 2100 , changing the vacuum T/R
relay was the fix .

Have a strange problem in the shack.
Run the same antennas and had no issues, put in line my Yaesu 5000 and palstar
AT.
All antennas tune flat 1:1 but when I run QRO the Acom 2K comes up with arc
fault even with low drive of 20watts.
I can place a load at the end of the coax outside and have no issues but when I
got to any antenna 260' center fed dipole or a vertical I get a fault and the
amp shuts down.
Sounds like an RF issue but why now when nothing has changed outside?
Have not seen anything like this in 40yrs I've been operating.
