The challenge is to switch the attenuator in and out between TX and RX modes. A better solution for all is to use a transceiver which DOES NOT have the problem. As Jim, K9YC indicated, many do and require either operating system/firmware changes or in some cases, hardware changes. I'm with him on this. I can attest to the fact, my K3S, my Tentec Omni VII and Tentec Eagle DO NOT have the overshoot issue. The issue can be resolved. ICOM, Kenwood, Yaesu.........are you listening? 73 Bob, K4TAX Message: 8 Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2021 09:21:15 -0700 From: jerry To: Bob McGraw Cc:[email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 Power Level Message-ID:<[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed On 2021-09-19 19:47, Bob McGraw wrote: > Based on personal experience and observations with another ham radio > brand and company, it is most often the case that power overshoot is > likely to occur when the transceiver is operated at reduced power.? > Namely to drive a power amplifier.?? *** So I guess the obvious fix is to operate the exciter at full power and insert an attenuator in line. It would be serious piece of equipment though. - Jerry KF6VB ______________________________________________________________ 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] [d53b21fb-1cac-4fc6-8651-939932eb067f] ____________________________________________________________ Sponsored by https://www.newser.com/?utm_source=part&utm_medium=uol&utm_campaign=rss_taglines_more All Eyes on How Beijing Handles a Financial Landmine http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/614a23d89b6ba23d63612st01vuc1 Key Lines From Biden's Speech to UN General Assembly http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/614a23d8ba51723d63612st01vuc2 As Petito Case Continues, Another Frustrating Search http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/614a23d8d941b23d63612st01vuc3 ______________________________________________________________ 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]
