[Mich VHF UHF Society] 2M FT8 skeds?

[rgcox2]

John,Thanks for the contact! I was only running 20 watts output from the TS2000. When I moved my shack a couple months ago, I had to extend the coax run. I think that either the cable or connectors are causing high VSWR now and shutting down the output power of the rig.73 Roger W8IOSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone
