Was just off to work and decided to take my K1 with me for a a play a lunch
time, picked up a antenna i had been playing with and just connected it to the
k1 in the shack with the antenna thrown around the room, but i was powering the
K1 from a varable bench supply at the time, put it in tune mode and the k1
started to tune, i then noticed that the bench supply was reading around 17v DC
(must be rf getting into it as it was 12.5v before) and current limiting at
around 1.5 Amps.
before i could do anything the K1 went off and a smell of burning from it could
be detected.
now the K1 reads a direct short when you apply power , got to run to work now
but any ideas where to start looking when i get home would be a great help.
regards
