What do you mean not full break-in? By the time you finished a couple contacts you were fully broken in. I did that for a while with the DX-60B and HR-10. Ever notice that every time you do something repeatedly over and over again without any thought as to how simple and mundane it is that after a while you start to do the exact opposite? Like shelling peas. After a while you start throwing the pods in with the good peas and the peas in with the pods. Yup same thing working that old CLICK-SNAP-CLICK routine. It started to become SNAP-CLICK-SNAP after a while and I was not getting any responses to my calls. My plate current was a little wonky too until I realized the antenna was connected to the RX during TX and to the TX during RX.

[QUOTE="Captain Kilowatt, post: 490520, member: 39"] What do you mean not full break-in? By the time you finished a couple contacts you were fully broken in. :p I did that for a while with the DX-60B and HR-10. Ever notice that every time you do something repeatedly over and over again without any thought as to how simple and mundane it is that after a while you start to do the exact opposite? Like shelling peas. After a while you start throwing the pods in with the good peas and the peas in with the pods. Yup same thing working that old CLICK-SNAP-CLICK routine. It started to become SNAP-CLICK-SNAP after a while and I was not getting any responses to my calls. My plate current was a little wonky too until I realized the antenna was connected to the RX during TX and to the TX during RX. :confused: [/QUOTE]
