Ron & Fred,
A few weeks ago, I got help from Mothership Service, confirming that I
can "reboot" the bricked KPA500 using the utility program.
It worked. Moral, turn off the back switch of the amp if the USB/serial
cable is attached.
Trying to find the USB COM port (Linux) for the K4, I inadvertently sent
a "download data coming" command to the amp.
My YL, gets a chuckle when I find "turn it off and back on", works... as
we are fans of the "IT Crowd" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nn2FB1P_Mn8
73, steve WB3LGC
yes, the KPA500 has been working, like a champ, since the re-load...

Update on the KXPA100 fault on 15 meters: The issue went away for a while
and returned. I decided to reinstall the firmware and reset the
configuration via the KXPA utility. All seems to be working again. Will
keep an eye on it.
Thanks

Here too. Fault table says "Hi dissipation 228.58 watts." First time
I've ever tried 15 meters.
KX3 #08651 and KXPA100 have never been out for service and work fine on
10, 20, and 40 meters.

Fred - Yes, I am experiencing the exact same behavior. It only occurs
on 15m and output wattage displayed on the KXPA100 MUCH higher than it
should be before it faults and turns itself off. The amp just came back
from service in April due to another issue. :(
Tnx!
