I am looking to see if anyone else has used an Ameritron AL811 with their KX3 with positive results.
I plan on buying the KXPA100, but after buying the Shack in a Bag, I will need to put it off for a little bit. In the mean time, I would like to try using what I have, but I am hesitant to try since the KX3 is new to me and I don't want to harm anything. I have a base station radio that plugs into the Ameritron AL811 by way of the ARB-704 and it works great with 70 watts going it to make 600 watts going out. The ARB amp line is a simple RCA jack from the ARB 704 to the rear of the Amp, but the radio cord is the Multi cord plugged into my base station. I know I can unplug the multi cord and use the RCA jack on the back of the ARB 704 "radio" input, but I am not sure where that will plug into. I know that I can only push 15 watts max into the Ameritron, but wouldn't that mean that I could get somewhere around 180 watts out of it? Would it work like that? I bought the cable pack from Elecraft, so I am pretty sure I have everything that I need to make it happen, but I would love the advice of someone on here that may have already done this, or has good information on why I should not try this. I could also use help in which plugs to plug where. Thank you for any information that anybody may be able to give and please forgive me if this has been posted somewhere already. I have done my best to search for several days online and in this forum, but I am not coming up with any answers. 73, Dan N7DSX ______________________________________________________________ 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
