Cobra 29LX Antenna Warning

[Realred]

Hi all, I have a Cobra 29Lx displaying "antenna warning" even into a 50 ohm dummy load. The radio receives fine but has no Tx. Driver and final test fine. Does this antenna warning disable output? If so, How do I troubleshoot this?

That is one of several Cobra radios that have a known issue with the AWI, where it lights up even if there is nothing wrong with the antenna system. It would seem that the 29LX model does disable transmit when the AWI is activated. The fix may be as simple as adjusting the correct VR in the radio, or it may be much more complex. Hopefully one of the resident WWDX techs will enter the chat.........

Thanks, I have tried adjusting VR6 as per Cobra's instructions but it has no effect.
