Re: SLR 7500 Shutting Down?
sounds like a high SWR...is the duplexer tuned correctly? or hooked up properly. TX/RX swapped? is it the right antenna ? you said you used VHF and now UHF .. did you change antennas? Is the coax not shorted to ground? these are the first things I check

Re: Older SVA and astro saber?
The older saber SVA does not have the pin on the accessory connector to activate the antenna switch to change the RF to go out to the external antenna like an ASTRO AVA. You won't have the benefit of an external antenna but the charger and audio will still work.
