President Dwight D AWI Light

I have a President Dwight D with the AWI (antenna warning indicator) light. The problem is my SWR meter shows 1.7 on channel 1 and 2.4 on channel 40 on a vertical 4 element beam antenna. The AWI light is coming on now and never had the light come on before also have tried 3 SWR meters and they all are close to being the same. I've also never had this radio hooked up to this antenna before. So I guess my questions would be:
With those standing waves would that trigger the light?
Has the Dwight D had any problems with the light malfunctioning that anyone knows of?
Thanks ahead of time to any info on the problem.

HELLO,,,Usually the swr a.w.i. light comes on when the
s.w.r. is 2.0 or greater..The radio has a internal pot
that can be adjusted.
