Radio with no audio

Post by Ranger Buck »

Need Help Fast.... Mobile Radio running as temp base off a 35 amp power supply. Imax 200 antenna on tower @ 60 feet, was working good. SWR was flat 1.1 on all channels. Hooked up in line a Palomar 250 amp & rig was screaming good. Hooked up my Drake W-4 watt meter in line to check SWR on low & high power. Keyed up on low, meter read 40 watts reflected & 40 watts forward, radio audio went dead on all channels. Disconnected amp & still no audio. Took radio to CB shop in Phoenix, & unit worked great on bench, keyed down @ 7 watts, swing to 12. Hooked up radio back @ home still no audio?

Any suggestions before I have to take down tower to check coax and/or antenna? Did I screw something up? Please advise.

Thanks

Ranger Buck
