2) that's too much of a drop. Running 40 watts out to drive my Alpha 8410, the voltage is 14.1 key up and 13.9 key down reading from the transceiver display. 3) 40 watt current draw is 10.8 amps. You should run your power supply at 14.2 volts out, use a short cord to the K3S. 73, Guy K2AV ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
