QMX no transmit on 60M, large B on display between freq and mode

 

I working 60M FTB last night and my QMX was humming along just fine.  Then it stopped transmitting and a capital B appeared between the frequency and mode on the display.  RX still works fine but the QMX will not transmit in CW or digital but just on 60M - no other band is affected.  I did look through the operating manual but did not find anything.

Bill,

This could be the 'out of band' indication - see p10 of the Operating Manual 1-00-026.

Thanks John, that was it!

What was happening is that I had split "fake" enabled and the Region 2 band limits.  When the rig split on 60M it was outside the channel and TX shut as it does for high SWR.  I changed the band limit to "none" and all is good now.
