All, I recently acquired a used Ameritron AL-811H for use with my K3 (until I can save enough to get the KPA500). I seem to be having issue getting the amp to respond to key down on the rig. I have an RCA cable running from KEY OUT on the back of my K3 to the RELAY on the back of the amp. I have DIGOUT1 on the K3 set to ON. The amp is configured for, and plugged into, a 240V AC outlet. When I go key down, either in CW or SSB, I only get a plate current of about 120 mA and don't get any grid current. I suspect I have something misconfigured and the issue is operator error, but I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to look at this point. Can anyone offer any guidance?
Thanks and 73, Ian Kahn, KM4IK Roswell, GA [email protected] K3 #231, P3 #688 ______________________________________________________________ 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
