Anyone ever notice ur amp meter on your power supply on SSb?, mine is showing bout 6 amps pull while im keyed on ssb before I speak Then when I speak it shows normal amperage swing with audio, but watt meter & radio meter show no sound is coming through till I speak, Thats with the stock mic, so its not background. Is this normal? |
