Re: [Elecraft] KPA 500: No Output

2022-12-14 Thread Lyn Norstad
Dave - Looking at your very nice website and the "Radio-end station setup," I'm wondering why you are using an external antenna switch? In my experience, especially for remote operation, you'll generally have a much more fool-proof installation using the KAT500's internal antenna switch. The

Re: [Elecraft] KX3/PX3 vs FT-710

2022-12-14 Thread Eric Fitzgerald
Greg, I think it is unreasonable to compare radios that come with two completely different price points (not to mention delivery dates).  The KX3 fully tricked out is like, what, 3x the cost? Don't get me wrong, I absolutely prefer the fully loaded KX3 in this comparison otherwise. Dealing

[Elecraft] KPA1500 front panel locked

Helping a friend connect his KPA1500 to a K3. The AUXBUS is working, following the radio etc. like normal. However, as soon as that cable is plugged into the KPA, it’s front panel buttons all cease to function. Remote control via USB or ethernet work fine. The AUXBUS cable is a proper one, not

Thanks, Jack. Yeah, I realized what I did after Walter sent the link. I went here (https://elecraft.com/pages/kpa1500-kpa500-kat500-remote-software) the first time and only saw the Windows files. I thought I had seen them for macOS previously but, for the life of me, I couldn’t find them again.

[Elecraft] KPA500 App

2022-12-14 Thread Joel Black
Before I go looking too hard, is there a macOS app for the KPA500 or *just* the Windows app on the Elecraft site. If it matters, I’m looking to interface the KPA500/KAT500 combo to a Flex 6400… Maybe. I’ve not bought the amp or tuner… Yet. My preferred OS is macOS but I do use Win11 in a VM

Joel; It’s worth the look. We have most apps for both Windows and Mac. By the way, the KPA500 firmware was developed and is still maintained using a Mac mini, which is a good indication as to how important both Windows and macOS are to us. Welcome to the Elecraft world; we hope you will enjoy

Hi all. I'm new to HF, new to the K3, and relatively new to ham radio so please go easy on me. I only have my Technician so I've been listening a lot more than transmitting. I completed assembly of the radio about a year ago but left out the KPA3 until I was sure the radio was working correctly.
