Adam,
I don't have the KDVR3 fitted. I suspect it's because I'm running too much output power causing the K3 current sensors to trip. I'm going to try reducing my output power a little and see if that cures it. 73 de Paul G4AFU ----Original Message---- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 04/12/2008 17:46 To: "G4AFU Paul"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subj: RE: K3 power tripping out > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:elecraft- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of G4AFU Paul > Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2008 5:30 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [K3] [Elecraft] K3 power tripping out > > > For some unknown reason my K3 (897) tripped out 3 times last night when > on > 160m cw. > I was running 90w out with a 1 to 1 swr - auto ATU installed. > Each time I brought it back to life by hitting the POWER button. > I was just reading through the new KDVR3 manual and noted the following. "Hardware Upgrades The following changes have been implemented in newer K3s to avoid the possibility of shorts or intermittent operation in some K3s. All the hardware needed is supplied with your KDSP3 kit." My 3 day old K3 already came with these updates. Could yours need them?? http://www.elecraft.com/manual/KDVR3_Option_Installation_Rev_A.pdf Adam - ka7ark http://ka7ark.com _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
