It could also be a power supply problem... I had that with mine. The supply
voltage dropped to around 12.0 vdc from 13.8+, and the power went down about
as much as you are describing. It's worth a check.

Hi Gang,
My IC-746 seems to be loosing power out on all bands. Instead of the normal
100 watts, lately it seems to be around 70 (or less) on all bands and drops
even lower as the rig heats up. It seems to be pretty uniform across all
bands as well.
It sounds like an AGC circuit or a power sensor is dying... Anyone
experiance or hear of this particular problem before?
Thanks!
