    What to do if Acom Amplifier reflected power is too high?
    • C
      Clayton WatsonAug 19, 2025
      If your Acom amplifier indicates excessive reflected power, inspect the antenna cable, selector, antenna, and grounding connections for any looseness or insulation issues. Adjust the antenna for the lowest VSWR or utilize an antenna tuner. You might also want to test with a different antenna. Additionally, verify that the reflected power isn't originating from a nearby transmitter.
