Symptom

Possible Fault

Correction

Weak output or picture

Low level input signal

Verify presence and level of input
signal

Low output power

Verify power amplifier output with
wattmeter and dummy load

Incorrect modulation depth

Adjust to meet specification

High reflected power

Incorrect load

Ensure amplifier connected to
transmission line

Ensure correct antenna impedance
(50 ohms)

Check antenna tuning and
VSWR. Verify correct cable for
transmission line length

Check all cables for visible
damage (kinks, nicks or cuts)

Check all connectors for poor
connections, water or corrosion

Check alignment of antenna

Check for physical damage of
antenna, including ice build-up
