Help with ft-857 SWR limits

[k8vf]

Does anyone know the procedure to adjust via the menus the allowable swr limits before foldback using the 857?

At 1.5:1 it cuts the power and clips badly. Perhaps 2:1 would be more like it?

I cant seem to locate the procedure.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Go join the yahoo group on this radio, once you are a member go to the files section and get the info. Hopefully if you do this you have a reference load you can use to carefully adjust the settings. I purchased my 857 back the first part of November and I noticed the swr foldback on mine starts at 2:1

I've gone over half of their messages in the group and havent found anything yet. I am assuming I will.

Thanks for the reply.

go to the file labeled alignment and scroll down the .pdf file until you get to the vswr set.
