yes agreed...

I've got a whole flock of ten tec radios and well aware they lack the standard swr foldback but instead rely on the power supply to trip at over current, protecting the PA.

Mike:

The High Current Warning is working correctly. The PA drive control circuit is looking at PA current and not SWR. Tentec radios typically fold back on
high PA current and not high SWR as other radios.

All is well in that regard.
