Thanks to those who responded. It is evident that my K144XV is not responding as expected to the K3's front-panel power control byreducing output down to approximately 1.0 W at a drive level of 0.1 mW.
While it would be easy to blame my power meter, I have also noted this behavior with an attached power amplifier. The minimum output power floor was no where near what I would have expected from a 1 W drive if the K144XV had been providing that. I have my CONFIG: XV1 PWR value set to L 1.0. I do have a K144REFLK option installed. Anyone have an idea as to what might cause this behavior? I really need to be able to provide a reliable 5 W output from my K144XV. If the routing of the TMP cables to the K144REFLK board is critical, how should they be routed? The assembly manual is mum on this question. ----- 73, Stan - KR7C -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K144XV-output-power-range-tp6666166p6668463.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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
