    5.0 TROUBLESHOOTING Malfunctions are mostly due to improper handling, overload or similar reason. 5.1 Do not use higher input power as stated in the specification. The grid protector circuit will usually safe the power valves, but OVERLOAD alarm will appear regularly. This may happening often in SSB mode, especially in case of old transceivers, when the output power in SSB mode is not adjustable.
