SWR LIGHT ON/OFF SWITCH
The S-6 is equipped with an automatic HIGH VSWR
warning circuit. In the event of an abnormally high
VSWR condition the red transmitter light that illumi-
nates the meter will start flashing. It is strongly recom-
mended to correct the problem quickly as transmitting
with a high VSWR will stress and shorten the life of the
RF transistors.
The on/off switch on the rear panel of the radio turns off
the flashing red high VSWR indicator. Please note that
this only turns off the indicator light and does not solve
any problems that may exist with the radio and an-
tenna system.
