I'm having trouble with my SL30 not receiving and transmitting and had assumed the problem to be with the radio. After your discussion I remembered I wired in one of the iCom boxes and it well could be the problem.

Do you have a BNC barrel adapter . . . or perhaps a BNC-Tee? You can pull the coaxes off the back of the Icom-Box and bypass it with the connectors. Let us know what you discover. An SWR check at the radio end of the feed line would be equally useful. These things are coming down in price . . . and this offering even ships from US. http://tinyurl.com/j7muztq You'll need a pair of BNC(F)->N(M) adapters http://tinyurl.com/h3666vz Bob . . . ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 11:20:44 AM PST US From: "Harry Bartel" Subject: RE: AeroElectric-List: Re: iCom Antenna Switchbox effect on Com Radio Bob, I need an education. The SWR meter referenced here shows; Frequency Range: HF 1.6MHZ~60MHZ. How important are the range markings?

Bob's link was the correct 100-500 MHz. Cheers Werner On 25.01.2017 20:15, Harry Bartel wrote: > Bob, > > > I need an education.
