The KPA500 transformer uses a toroid core, which reduces the external magnetic field.
The P3's display is an LCD, not a CRT that might more likely be influenced by magnetic fields. Place the amplifier and P3 as you find convenient. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Robert Sands Sent: Saturday, May 12, 2012 7:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] Positioning of KPA 500 with K3 Just finished building KPA 500 SN 846 without a hitch. Great experience! I recall that the transformer field makes it less advisable to place the amplifier to the LEFT of the K3. Is this true? Handles would abut as well. May have to rearrange shack.So is it necessary to place the KPA 500 to the RIGHT of the P3?
