DC on Input

Post by W6LVP »

I may have connected 12 volts DC (power for an active receive antenna) to the RX1 input on my 7000DLE. Transmit and RX2 works correctly. RX1 from any hardware antenna port is down at least 30 dB from what it should be.

Time to send it in for repair, I'm afraid! With luck you only killed the protection diodes.
