What Went Wrong With My Coax?

What Went Wrong With My Coax?


Under very high power, I had an Amplifier fault and then high SWR. What caused this? Did something carbonise and then cleared? Would it re-appear with QRO again? Your guess is as good as mine. I would need to strip it all down and check. I would prefer just to remake them all! Please let me know what you think! Callum.
