My KPA is once again repeatedly failing on 160m. I haven't used it on Topband since about the end of March, when it was fine. My antenna is checking out fine on my AA-230 ZOOM analyzer, and I can run 100W into the antenna from the K3s with no problem.
I'm getting FAULT: PWR REFL on every keydown with drive power at any level, even just 5W in will cause it to fail. I am running from the K3s directly into the KPA-1500, and from the KPA to an antenna switch out to the antennas. Everything was 100% last time I fired up, and the am IS working on 20 and 40 (the only other bands I've used since March). Any idea where to start looking here? I'm at a complete loss and have just missed two new DXCC entities on 160 as a result. --------------------------------------------- 73 and Good DX Peter, W2IRT President, North Jersey DX Association DXCC Card Checker Letter O Manager, ARRL Incoming 2nd District QSL bureau ______________________________________________________________ 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]
