Howdy: Just commenced phase 3 transmitter test. Results: excessive current.
Conditions: Using a 3 amp power supply. Set K2 at 2 watts power out. Cal current set to 2 max. Have analog watt meter connected to K2 and 50 ohm dummy load connected to watt meter. When "Tune" mode activated, I get "high current on display" it reads 8.0 and my power supply ammeter pegs well over 3 amps and shuts down after 5 seconds. This will also happen when the front panel output control is set to one watt. As careful and experienced as i think I may be, I certainly have a problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
