Re: [Elecraft] AXT1 status?

Thanks, Bob, for the data point. Gives me an idea of how long things are going to take. On Mon, Oct 22, 2018 at 9:34 PM Michael Walker wrote: > Rich > > I'm sure you'll find this will all work out pretty quickly. Elecraft is > not Amazon... :) > > It is actually pretty hard for a company

Re: [Elecraft] AXT1 status?

Rich I'm sure you'll find this will all work out pretty quickly. Elecraft is not Amazon... :) It is actually pretty hard for a company this size to man phones all day. I'm sure any voice mail or email you sent will get responded to in a timely manner. I've used Elecraft's bits for decades and

[Elecraft] AXT1 status?

I ordered an AXT1 tripod mount about 1 day before the new web site came online and a bit before Pacificon went on, meaning the chance of my finding out what’s going on with my order is bordering on “vanishingly small.” Phone clls are going to voicemail and emails are not being answered. I could

[Elecraft] AX1 on the K2

Here are a couple of observations on using the AX1 on the K2/10 with internal tuner. First off, I know that this is promoted for the KX2/KX3 and similar radios, the AX1 page doesn't list the K2 as a compatible product and probably doesn't get much use in /PM. With the K2 sitting flat, the

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 not amplifying

Turns out, it is not the KPA1500 not amplifying, but rather the KPA3A final amplifier stage in my K3S is acting like it has tubes, not FETs.  It has to warm up at 30 watts out, and then the power can  be reduced to 20 watts.  Weirdly, changing the power level above 20 watts seems to reset tbe

Re: [Elecraft] In response to several AX1 questions at Pacificon

One would need to be mindful of the 630m 5 watt and 2200m 1 watt EIRP limits in North America, when using such a modified AX1. Mike / KK5F :-) - > And with the right size loading coil could it be used on 630 > and 2200 meters pedestrian mobile? _

Re: [Elecraft] In response to several AX1 questions at Pacificon

And with the right size loading coil could it be used on 630 and 2200 meters pedestrian mobile? What size wheelbarrow would be recommended for the coil? John AE5X https://ae5x.blogspot.com _ Another question -- if a right-sized capacity hat were added to the top of the

[Elecraft] New Work On My Website

I've just uploaded 1) slides for my Pacificon talk on Transmitting Chokes for the 630M Band, and 2) an applications note on Chokes and Transformers for Receiving Antennas. Both are reports on extensive work over the spring and summer I've done on these topics. Thanks to Elecraft Chief

Another question I was asked was if a choke should be used on this antenna and where it should be placed. My response was no. 73, Jim K9YC __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help:

Q: What length of coax should I use with the AXT1 tripod adapter? A: If the whip is close to resonance, which will usually be the case on 20 meters, coax losses should be fairly small even with longer runs, say up to 15 feet. When using the AX1 on 17 and 15 meters where an ATU is required, use

Re: [Elecraft] K2 driving KPA500 / KAT500

Ted, Elecraft did publish an add on circuit to drive an amp from the K2. The bad news is that I can not find it on their new website. Tom Hammond N0SS (SK) designed a PC Board for an amp keying circuit which is no longer available. However he published the schematic which you can find here: N0SS
