Hello Graham, dear YLs and OMs, There is adjustment resistor inside the internal Transverter. Here only you will be able to maintain right power setting. I did this one time for all my transverters. Max power is for me 2,5W. With power (pwr) knob, I can maintain 1 to 2.5 W.
Hope this helps Vy73 Harald DD0VS Von meinem iPhone gesendet > Am 06.07.2017 um 16:13 schrieb Graham Kimbell <g3...@g3tct.co.uk>: > > I have a K3 (old style) with internal 2m transverter that I want to use to > drive a microwave transverter.
