Hi OMs,
let me ask if anybody will consider folowing as useful Option (option - used
when needed :-)):
- in K3 with KAT3 ATU unit (it means with 2 ant outputs ANT1/ANT2) to have
possibility of different output power set by ANT port.
Simply in menu CONFIG: PWR SET new option PER-ANT
Why? If I have two antennas and one PA used for one of them ("main" ant) I
need let say 35W for driving PA on ANT1 port and full power (100W) on ANT2
directly connected to second antenna (NVIS dipole for example) - without PA.
Then it is possible simply switch ANT 1/2 without need to take care about
power on output (not to overdive PA for ant1 / use maximal power from
barefoot K3 for ant2)
Yes, setting can be more complex as NORM/PER-BAND and NORM/PER-ANT together
can be in the game but in some scenario it can helps (one band contest with
two antennas and one PA, etc.)
Is it silly idea or any supporters here?
Opinions?
Of course - no idea if this can be done in FW :-(
73!
