[450] a little smoke

[Paul Cianciolo]

That looks a lot like a arc with all that black carbon…

 

DO you know what exactly happened?

 

Sorry about that man…

It appears that a coil and capacitor have met their maker and taken some strip line with it. Will at the very least need to repair the output combiner board and replace the coil and capacitor. I might take the output combiner off the spare I have and swap that in since the strip lines are in bad shape. I don't think I have the value of the ATC cap I need for the output so I will have to make an order.
