I have two 25W VHF VX4204's.
TX output is only around 50mW (maybe less) but current consumption is 15A....significantly more than expected for 25W.
I presume the PA's are bad.
Has anybody come across this before? Any views? Is this a common issue with VX4204's.
Both radio serial numbers are sequential ie xxx466 , xxx467...but maybe that is a coincidence. Both had been used by different companies with different frequencies programmed into the radios.
Thanks
