Walter, 50 MHz TX constant 4 W carrier measures 13.53 V on DMM (outside the DC power plug), 13.3 V on KX3 meter, 2.9 A on KX3 meter and 1.6 to 1 VSWR on KX3 meter. Microwave dummy load with BNC to N adapter.
I didn't measure all of this when the rig was new, so have no baseline to know what is normal. :-( Thanks, Drew n7da On Fri, May 8, 2020 at 11:19 PM Drew Arnett <arnett.d...@gmail.com> wrote: > > What do you see for current draw on the KX-3?
