"When I powered-up the unit and tapped "HV" I get numbers between 9 and 11 volts (expecting ~ 65 or 70 Volts)."
I'd suggest measuring the actual HV rail at the PA input spade terminal. That will tell you if you have a real low voltage problem or a voltage sensing problem. The interlock switch will need to be defeated which is not difficult but I leave that to your ingenuity. If the voltage really is low then (switch off) disconnect the 60 V bus from the PA module (switch on) and measure again. My HV supply is 80 V unloaded. The interlock switch is there to stop you doing this so don't defeat it without considering the risks and taking appropriate precautions. 73, Andy, k3wyc ______________________________________________________________ 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
