Hello, I have had a KX-1 for about a year now and it seems to be working OK.
However, I was testing the transmitter and connected a 50 ohm dummy load. During the course of my transmitter tests, I noticed that the dummy load got warm when I wasn't transmitting. I measured the KX-1 input current and found that the I was drawing about 0.300 A with the dummy load attached while receiving. With a random wire attached in place of the dummy load, the current draw dropped to 0.040A, which is close to the tolerances specified in the manual. Does this indicate there is a problem with the radio? Bob
