Yeah, called turning amp to standby. In my case anyway, standby switch is right in front of my face. I've gotten into habit of turning amp to standby when I change bands and only putting it back on when I've seen normal SWR on K3 in tune, and I've changed amp tuning knobs to numbers for the new band. WAY easier on expensive amp tubes.
Personally I wouldn't want the function you imply in the K3, certainly not as a default behavior. I'd bet that generates a whole new string of <Why can't I key my amp with my K3?> threads. 73, Guy On Sun, Jul 12, 2009 at 11:00 AM, Richard Thorne <[email protected]>wrote: > Is there a way to turn off the ptt signal to an amp when the TUNE button > is pushed? > > I want to run high power but I want to disable the amp while tuning an > external antenna tuner. > > Thanks > > Rich - N5ZC > ______________________________________________________________ > 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 > -- 73, Guy K2AV ______________________________________________________________ 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
