Paul:
By "trips the amp" do you mean that the TR relay on the amp does not engage when you tune with the TUNE button (Press and hold)? How are you feeding your amp/radio PTT? Do you use a footswitch? Do you have a Microkeyer? Are you running the footswitch to the microkeyer or to the radio? Is the amp is being keyed from the KEY OUT RCA socket on the K3 or from the microkeyer PA OUT RCA socket? -lu-w4lt- Message: 6 Date: Thu, 26 Aug 2010 15:22:51 EDT From: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] K3-100 question clarification To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Hi Everyone, I omitted in my original post that my manual antenna tuner meter shows the 15 watts when pressing the K3's XMIT/Tune button though the amp does not respond. "I have my Ameritron AL-811 (600 watts) amp connected to this K3/100. I find that the K3 Tune command (XMIT/Tune button set @ 15 watts) does not trip the amplifier for tune up purposes though PTT trips it when I push it on the mic." Thanks again, 73 Paul AD5SX ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
