Likely ALC overshoot (momentary overdrive) from the Kenwood rig. 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 2018-05-19 4:45 PM, Richard Zalewski wrote:
Just finished my first contest with the KPA-1500. Unit arrived yesterday in perfect condition. Packaging very professional. Putting on a new 220v AC plug took the longest of anything. Probably made the first Q less than an hour after the box was dropped off at the door. Today was just a short CW contest (King of Spain). Everything was great. The fans do come on rather quickly even in a CW contest but with my headsets noise level wasn't objectionable. Will see when it comes time for a RTTY or SSB test. I did notice an occasional flashing of yellow and red in the SWR led string. I watched my inline meter and it showed nothing during those bursts so something is going on there. Believe this was noted by others. I ran the contest with 40w of drive from the TS-990S and produced in the area of 1400w. So far quite pleased.
