I just made a big mistake. I thought I had my antenna's connected after weeks of plug/unplugging from a series of bad weather on a K3s and I tuned on 80m without having my antenna cables connected to the directional coupler. After a bunch of relay clicks, the KAT500 faulted. I also have a KPA500 connected.
After reconnecting my antenna to the directional coupler and restarting everything, I tried to listen and the noise floor is quiet. Then I tried to retune, but the K3s displays 17.2-1 and doesn't change any further (where it used to tune to 1.1-1), and the KAT500 keeps blinking the "AUTO" light during a tune, and nothing else happens. I can hear nearby stations, but not really anything else. It's like all the bands are quiet now. Did I damage something? Thoughts? ______________________________________________________________ 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]
