[Elecraft] K3/10 OUTPUT POWER
I have one of the new SPE Expert amps on order: http://www.linear-amp.com/ It requires 20W of drive for full output. Can one of the knowledgeable K3 designers/testers comment on nominal Po from 160--6M?

Drive power for the Expert 1K-FA amplifier is Typically 20W for full output. Typically. I would think it ambitious to expect full output with just 20 watts drive. Just my opinion. de Joe, aa4nn . - Original Message - From: Dale Parfitt [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2007 9:46 AM Subject: [Elecraft] K3/10 OUTPUT POWER I have one of the new SPE Expert amps on order: http://www.linear-amp.com/ It requires 20W of drive for full output.

I've been seeing about 14-15 watts but have not checked on 6m yet. Will do so this evening and report back. So far every contact has reported a very nice clean signal. Excellent CW note and audio quality using the 2.8 kHz filter for SSB TX. The TX EQ really makes a difference as well. - 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 On Tue Jul 3 9:46 , Dale Parfitt sent: I have one of the new SPE Expert amps on order: http://www.linear-amp.com/ It requires 20W of drive for full output.

It would certainly violate the FCC's requirement in 97.317 of 15 dB maximum gain (although with the loosening of amp restrictions I can't understand why they left that one in place).

Why not drive it at 10W and get a cleaner output? -- Julian, G4ILO G4ILO's Shack: www.g4ilo.com K2 s/n: 392 K3 s/n: ??? www.Ham-Directory.com: the best ham resources on the net ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
