Hi Jack, No asterisk. Tnx, Ray W2RS In a message dated 6/21/2015 9:37:57 A.M. US Mountain Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
When you switch to OPER, is there an asterisk on the left side of the LCD? This would indicate that the PTT line is engaged or shorted. fix that connection and things should return to normal. There are several things that could be causing the trouble you see. Work through them with Elecraft customer support and you may avoid shipping the amp back. - Jack Brindle, W6FB Sent from my iPad > On Jun 21, 2015, at 8:16 AM, Ray W2RS via Elecraft <[email protected]> wrote: > > My KPA500 amplifi_es_ (file://\\es) normally but seems to have a > switching problem on receive.
