Question for Wayne and those KX3 gurus who have installed the 2M module:
Installation and setup seemed to go well, however I did have the
44.000/22.000 display issue that has been previously described. It was
cured using the suggestion from the list here. After an hour of tuning
around and sporadically trying to get the local repeater to come up, a
problem started. Unit seemed to transmit OK on all bands and all modes.
PROBLEM: The HI CUR warning started to come on 3 - 5 minutes after the
rig has been turned on and is RECEIVING fine then the rig beeps 3 times
and turns itself off.
PLEASE NOTE: This only happens in RECEIVE - all bands and modes
including 2M. The rig will tune and transmit.
Observations:
Volume is set at about 5
Current is at 0.212 at V0 goes to about 0.230 A with the volume at 12 or so.
Voltage is at 13.7 and rock solid
PA.I reads 27C
OSC reads 32C
The heatsink area at back of the frame is cool to lukewarm.
The SUB indicator was flashing, but turning off the SUB does not change
the self shutdown behavior.
What is it that is done during the KX3-2M installation that could have
triggered this? Is it something I could have accidentally tweaked in the
settings or is this going to trigger a visit to back to Elecraft?
Thanks,
Jack - KD4IZ
