Mike, The lowest power that can be displayed is 0.100 watt. I would not expect power levels below that to be consistent - there is a certain level below which the power level cannot be accurately controlled (it takes a little voltage into the sensing circuits to make the power control smooth.
If you are interested in milliwatting with the K2, you will find some helpful information in an old document by Wayne Burdick that can be found at http://www.elecraft.com/Apps/milliwatting_with_the_k2.htm. Note that the referenced document refers only to RF Board D9 as the power sensing device. If you have the KAT2 or KPA100 or KAT100 installed, the power sensing circuits are in the wattmeter mechanism for those options and you would have to insert the gain block at a different place. 73, Don W3FPR On 2/24/2012 2:12 PM, [email protected] wrote: > Has anyone actually measured the RF output at the lowest setting of the pot? > My display stops at 0.100 watt but this is before the end of pot travel. > Just curious if minimum output is fixed at 100 milliwatts or goes lower? > Mike, AC5P > ______________________________________________________________ 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
