Ditto here with my K3/100, except that the Astron 20 recently developed a bad habit of crowbar'ing when I get on 20 meters with the KPA500. Slams off IMMEDIATELY on transmit with the amp. I guess it doesn't like 500+ watts @ 20' (my vertical). Waiting for the KAT500, which will resolve that issue (the wire antenna is 60' away but requires a tuner). :-\
73, Rick wa6nhc -----Original Message----- From: K1FFX I'm glad that switching to a bigger Astron supply solved your problem. I would note, however, that I've been running my KPA100 with an Astron 20 at the 100 watt level for the past year with no problems.
