Hi all,
My K3 and KPA500 combo seems to overshoot the powersetting at the
beginning of a morse dot or dash. It happens with all morse code, not
only the first dot or dots.
Pwr at start of dot: abt 570 W, steady state pwr 520 W. It does show on
my peak reading measurerents and the 550W led on the KPA lights with
every dot/dash. Holding the key 440W led is off, so that confirms my
other measurements.
Checking the manuals does not help me at this time.
Here's the setup:
K3 #1255 with all HW mods and FW 4.60 / 2.80, running 33W on 12m
TX ALC On (normal)
EXT ALC Off
KPA500 #1497, brandnew, FW 1.23
ALC THR 210 (default)
KAT500: BYP
K-line is connected via the elecraft aux cables.
So.....What did I miss, or is this normal?
