I am glad a 100W test was conducted. It is in high SWR that a tuner shows
its true colors.
Take this other companies record. We all know this company. I would say
all hams have owned one of their skimpy tuner/watt/swr/dummy load all in ones.
They are infamouse for parts not firmly in place.(HAVE I GIVEN ENOUGH HINTS
:)I !)
They rate their tuner at 300W. I fried 2 of them with 100-200W. The 300W
dummy load To make a long story short, many have found that it will handle
300W with a flat SWR.
The tuner should really be rated at 150W (3:1 SWR.)
I feel good that the T1 can handle bursts of 100W. It means the tuner is
over built.
It means I can tune at 15W. I do not have to worry about a 3:1 SWR
saturating a toroid..
My K2 is stuffed with Laptop PC lithium cells. I have 72 Watt-Hours under
the hood.
So the external tuner fits the bill. I am considering weather proofing a
T! and place it at antenna. I would use lic. free RX/TX links for control.
I also ordered the PC interface. Someone asked me could I not use a PC to
process the mic audio, so it will have a wave shape that looks like it had
10db of RF compression.
Wow that is some very heavy fourier analysis work!
The serial port...Is there software that gives extended control of the K2.
I would like accurate control of the BFO. This would give me some type of
PBT or VPBT
How difficult is building the DSP module.I see the A/D D/A board is
built.Excellent!
How about the rest of the DSP.I see there is a larger board under the
a/d;;d/a board
