I disconnected the PA in my K3 at the circuit breaker and the parasitic current from the 13.8V supply dropped from 38mA to nearly zero.
There's no sign of unusual behavior of the amp. No errors. Full output. All operation suggests that it's quite "normal". 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- On 10/16/2013 1:33 PM, Wayne Burdick wrote: > Here's one possible explanation: Thanks Wayne. Battery voltage is in the range of 12 - 13.8 V, depending on what the solar panels are doing. As to residual on accessories -- I've got I/O for the Yankee Clipper SO2R box plugged into both radios. That has a WinKey emulator, which feeds the Key input, a paddle which it switches to the paddle input, a CM500 mic, which it switches to the rear panel input (and for which the K3 is providing bias), and headphones, switched to the rear panel phones. I tried unplugging it from one of the radios and nothing changed. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
