Ok, so I've removed the KPA100 completely, and disconnected the KAT2 serial and RF connections. I connected my W2 watt meter on the output of ANT2 of the KAT100, and the LOAD side of the sensor to a 50 ohm dummy load. The readings and indications I got are as follows:
160M 1.00:1 No LED indication on KAT100. K2 showed 1.0:1 80M 1.00:1 No LED indication on KAT100. K2 showed 1.0:1 60M 1.00:1 LEDs on KAT100 flickered a bit and remained off once tuning was finished. K2 showed 5.6:1 40M 1.00:1 LEDs on KAT100 flickered a bit and remained off once tuning was finished. K2 showed 5.6:1 30M 1.00:1 LEDs on KAT100 flickered a bit and finally lit 2. K2 showed 2.3:1 20M 1.00:1 LEDs on KAT100 lit as expected and finally lit 1. K2 showed 1.2:1 17M 1.00:1 LEDs on KAT100 lit as expected and finished at 1. K2 showed 1.0:1 15M 1.00:1 LEDs on KAT100 lit as expected and finished at 1. K2 showed 1.0:1 12M 1.05:1 LEDs on KAT100 lit as expected and finished at 1. K2 showed 1.0:1 10M 1.00:1 LEDs on KAT100 lit as expected and finished at 1. K2 showed 1.0:1 I'm still digging around for the diodes, but if I haven't found any by tomorrow I'll be putting in an order to digikey. -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/KAT100-Tuning-Failure-tp7605018p7605163.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
