I assume you mean the dummy load AND your power meter? or are you relying on what the internal meter of the radio says (if it has one?)

Dummy load and sure com meter

Sound like a bad unit to me; return for a swap if none of the suggested steps solves the problem

Come on folks, Oppenheimer didn't have this much difficulty building the atomic bomb. I wonder how he would have fared against a Chinese radio?

Could still be coax, antenna, incorrect frequency or tone. Once @OldJunk2 has finished troubleshooting it’s certainly possible that it’s a bad unit, but giving up now would be premature.

Pardon the intrusion, Question 0:  does the screen indicate the radio is transmitting when the PTT is pressed. 

I know on my KGXS20G when the output went dead the radio still looked like it was transmitting.  Only way I could tell was to put my watt meter on the output to find out it was zilch.
