I have a Dosy triple face meter (swr,watts,mod) hooked up on my base.Every thing works fine until I go on ssb,and then the meters are useless.Is this normal? Also, one of the lite bulbs burn't out and Dosy sent me a new one with a 10 1/2 ohm resistor with instructions on where to install it and now that meter face isn't as bright as the others. Is there something I can do to make them all match besides take out the res.?

Davec,

No this is NOT Normal.

The Meter's should woak as well on AM or SSB

Your SWR / RF Power-Watts and Modulation Meter's should ALL WORK on AM and SSB.

Call Dosy and check to see if it is still under Warranty if it is Send it back for a COMPLETE Repair.

Even if it is out of Warranty it is still cheaper to have it fixed right than to purchase a new one.
