I've just purchased a dxpatrol ground station, I also bought the helix antenna. I've connected everything up and I can hear stations just fine. However when I attempt to transmit using my ICOM-705 nothing is being heard, I'm monitoring using webSDR at Goonhilly.
I'm using UltraFlex 7 cable which is less than 2meters, with high quality connectors to connect the ground station to the Helix.
I have the ICOM set to 15% power, and on the ground station it's opening the TX, the power setting only ever goes between 0.2 and 1.0 while talking. The SWR only shows 1.0.
Can anyone else who has one of these provide some guidance on what the power should be showing during transmission, what power setting and any other settings I should use on the ICOM-705.
I'm not sure what else to try here.
Cheers,
