I am in the Timor Sea on board National Geographic ship Orion. Using C6APF/MM on board and VK6/W2APF when on land in Kimberly of Western Australia.
Yesterday after making two QSO's into Japan on 17M while on land, I got a "HI CUR" message on KX3. I thought it might be heat and broke down. Just set up on shipboard and got the same message: "HI CUR", three beeps and shut down. I had internal rechargables and was using a Lipo cell for power. I got the same message with and without the Lipo and with and without the rechargables. I did a quick check inside and can see no visible shorts. The radio was cool today having been in air conditioning just prior to set up. I get the same message with and without antenna connected, and with or without key attached. Any thoughts? Still have ten days to go and no back up. Thanks and 73, Thaire W2APF ______________________________________________________________ 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]
