Jeff,
I had something similar. It was exactly like the normal mode VU problem people report and usually fix with a diplexer. I eventually discovered that it happened even with both antenna ports connected to shielded dummy loads. I suspected that it might have been caused by an internal grounding problem. As it happened, I was getting ready to send the rig off to Yaesu for some other work, so I never got around to tightening anything. While that was a true nightmare, when I came back, eventually, that was fixed, though not much else was. And now I have a nasty chirp on CW, but only in SAT mode.
