I too had questions about \npower output on the 910. I discovered that the power to the radio was \nthe culprit. Before you send it away, check and make sure you have #10 \ncables to the radio and your power supply delivers the correct voltage \nand current. Mine does and it meets Specs on VHF and UHF on \"both\" my \n910's.\nOne I have the 1.2ghz Module in. One I use for demos at field day and \nhamfests etc.\nGood luck.\n73, NB2F\n\nDee\n\n\nOn Fri, Jan 8, 2010 at 9:18 AM, Mark L. Hammond wrote:\n\n> Hi Louis,\n>\n> Congratulations on your new IC-910H!
