Yes , it is only when I put the amp in operate that I see no output on the
meter ( antenna tuner meter or amp meter ) If I have the amp connected to
the radio and the menu set and the switch on the amp is on standby and when
I key up there is power out if I stop there and push the switch to operate
and key it up there is no output . JOhn kb2huk
