Hi,
Recently I was able to do a QSO on AM for the first time using my K3.
Yes, I have the 6 Khz filter installed. As I was setting power I found I
could dial in about 100 watts the same as SSB. Realizing that would
over work the PA I brought it back to 25 watts and had a very nice QSO
with a good audio report. Afterward, I checked the specs and
instructions in the Owner's Manual and could find nothing about AM power
rating.
What should be the power rating for the K3 when transmitting AM? Please
put that information in the manual. Would it be possible to limit the
AM power with a software update to eliminate the chance of
transmitting a signal that might be illegal and/or to prevent possible damage
to the KPA3?
Thanks and have a great day.
CU in the Colorado QSO Party Sept 4th, 2010.
73, Jim, W0EM
