I have an older 5W stereo TX. I press the test button and the unit cycles
through 3 tests: all OK. Press again and the display reads "Tune Up".
Nothing seems to happen. Pressing a channel up or down button
causes that angry error message... even with a 50 ohm dummy load!
Any ideas?

Also, where to get a low-power VHF SWR meter?

I saw in an old post that "tune for lowest" means that I should adjust the audio pitch.

???

The audio from the radio reciever is *great*:)
Will I damage the TX if I ignore this error message?

Read the instructions. Its described there in detail.

Ah, yes, well- the papers were misplaced some years ago:(

At that time there was a group interested in forming a comunity station.
For various reasons, the group disolved and the TX was never used.
Now a new group has formed and, finally, things are getting started.

Perhaps I should take another look around the site- perhaps some
docs are online.

I believe you got the manual by email already.

i have the same tx i believe ..it is called the max 1. And i have the same problem i do not have any documentation on it, how to tune, ect. check the net, and only found a review of it. could someone please help with the manual...i have the need to get back on the air

Sure, write us with this request via the website feedback form and we'll
email you the manual.

Can't use hotmail, its too big.

I assume you can transpose the output of the tuning test tone to some form of digital power output scale, for example a multimeter? for a more precise reading.

This method is very precise, an ear is a very sensitive instrument
when it comes to comparing two sounds in frequency.
