The K3 mode button is set to DATA and the transmit mode is DATA A. As I adjust the power output (PWR) knob during continuous transmit, the measured output displayed on the Power Master jumps to a high level. As an experiment, If the output is at a steady 40 W for example, when I slowly and continuously rotate the PWR knob, the output jumps to 150+ watts output during rotation of the PWR knob. As soon as I stop rotating the PWR knob the output is steady at the chosen output.
If I choose a different power output during receive, the output is momentarily very high and then drops to the selected output – Overshoot. No Overshoot if I don’t change the PWR knob. This is causing havoc with the amp. Out of curiosity I tried this in CW mode. In CW when I turn the PWR knob during a continuous transmit, the output does not jump to a high level but rather it follows the PWR knob setting smoothly. What may be the issue? 73, Bud W3LL [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ 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]
