I can't add much more, but the recent KPA500 software supports the serial connection to the TS-590. You don't really need it, but it helps by switching to the right band before you transmit, for example if you are working crossband spit it switches to the band you are going to be transmitting on rather than where you are receiving on. I have usb to the computer and RS232 to the KPA500 and everything works. It is just extra belts and suspenders, but it works well. The frequency based switching does too.
I still manage to screw something up in haste about twice a month. The KPA500 faults and lights up the big idiot light. A reset of the fault brings it back on line with no problems. 73, Mark W7MLG On Fri, Jan 22, 2016 at 6:49 PM, Michael Walker <va...@portcredit.net> wrote: > Steve > > All HF amps the same regardless of the vender. > > This pretty much sums it up. > > http://rin3.blogspot.ca/2014/12/how-to-key-your-amplifiers-with-ts-590g.html > > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
