Thanks Rick for the response.
I was sitting here writing that email and doing some other book work with the rig still on. After finishing the paperwork, I hit the key once more and the power seemed to return. Maybe a thermal shutdown? Or?? I'll keep an eye on it for the next few days to see if there is a reoccurrence. I appreciate the input. 73, Art -----Original Message----- From: Rick Bates <[email protected]> To: Art KZ5D <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, Feb 25, 2012 12:59 pm Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K-3 Lost KPA3 power output Check the circuit breaker on the rear?

Started a transmission and all fine. Instantly the output went to zero. Tried a reset. Still zero. I checked the Config menu setting under KPA and it is set to PA nor. Lowered power to 10 w and the output is fine. Adjust it past 12 w and the output goes to zero. > > > Any suggestions? > > > 73, > > > Art KZ5D > ______________________________________________________________ > 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 ______________________________________________________________ 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
