[Elecraft] DC insertion into antenna coax

2017-11-15 Thread Dauer, Edward
I would be careful about running DC through the coax. Rapid rise and fall times of the DC voltage can generate RF spikes, and the collapse of the field in a DC relay if there is one at the business end can produce high instantaneous voltages back down to the rig end of the feedline. There

Indeed, that has been done (also by me) and works fine. http://www.jtmiller.com/t1_tuner_project.html The only drawback by the insertion of a bias tee could be that the path for discharging static charges on the antenna is interrupted. 73, Heinz HB9BCB > Am 15.11.2017 um 19:42 schrieb Steve

Hmmm. That means that it should be trivial to make a DC-blocking circuit that would allow you to pull the ring of J3 to DC (and not RF) ground over the coax to initiate tuning. Then you would have part of the remote control puzzle solved. That's nearly enough to finally get me to buy a T1. On

Re: [Elecraft] Using T1 with KX2 or KX3

Understood. The T1 manual indicates that you can manually initiate tuning remotely by pulling the ring of J3 to ground, so running an extra control line from the operating position to the remote T1 could work. It also details the protocol for sending band info to the T1 to recall the previous

Yes, different use case. All my KX's have the internal tuner. But I was thinking of an antenna configuration which would benefit from having a T1 mounted away from the operating position. 73, Barry N1EU On Wed, Nov 15, 2017 at 9:00 AM, Dave Fugleberg wrote: > Barry, I

Barry, I went through that thought exercise before I ordered my KX2, since I already own a T1. In the end I ordered the internal tuner with the KX2. I have not regretted it for a minute. No extra cables, batteries, or fuss. And it works very well. Since you're concerned about remoting the tuner,

I'm looking for confirmation on how I understand the T1 would work with my KX2 or KX3. When I change bands, I will need to go through a manual re-tune process. The memories in the T1 won't automatically recall a setting based on the newly transmitted frequency. In the case of the KX2 or KX3, I
