I had an issue similar to Mark's, except it was the transmit side of the Tohtsu relay that had the problem. I could receive fine but had high SWR during TX. Unlike Mark, I did risk a shot of spray, which didn't cure the problem. But then ran a sheet of paper between the contacts and it has worked fine ever since.\n\n73, Bill NZ5N\n\n> Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: Fixed!
