Yes. You were transmitting on 50.376 MHz. The forward power was measured at 1411, which is a bit north of 300 watts.
It appears that the amplifier key line is not being interrupted by the KAT500. We can hot switch KAT500 relays at up to 100 watts, but not higher. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, December 31, 2013 10:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3/KPA500/KAT500 SWR Problem I've experienced the same issues others are reporting with the KAT500. The problem is somewhat intermittent. However, it seemed to happen more frequently after going to the 1.41 firmware. After reading one of Dick's posts, I checked the Fault Table just to see what it had in it. I'm seeing the following event logged numerous times. 03 - VFWD above relay hotswitch limit F 50376 VFWD 1411 VRFL 9 VSWR 1.08 VSWRB 2.74 It there some way to "decode" this? 73, Dave N8AG ______________________________________________________________ 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
