Guys, I am using a K3 with a KPA500 and KAT500. Everything was working well until I tried sat down at the station this morning. When I key up, the KPA500 doesn't amplify right away. I am running into a dummy load with the KAT500 in bypass. For the first 4-5 seconds, the amplifier is only putting out about 40-70 watts with a 20W drive. After that, it goes up to about 350-400W. It also seems that the KPA is requiring more drive to get it up to 500W. So, I think something is broken, but I'm not sure what. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Travis K2NP ______________________________________________________________ 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
