Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 with Portable Generator
I bought the 2200i twins for running >4000w for my RV last spring, so less than a year old. Ended up not running them so only test-run by the selling dealer before I took delivery. Guess I will check the SN's to see if they are on the recall. Presently stored in the RV which is surrounded by waist-high snow so that will have wait a few more months. I might check with the dealer in meantime as he probably recorded the SN in the sale. If my generators were part of the recall, glad I did not fuel or run them. We logged 11K miles last summer with them in the storage area. I have several Honda power tools which I really like the quality. Always start easy and run well. House has the EU6500i for standby power. Runs everything in the house including the well and the ham shack. Bands are amazingly quiet when the neighborhood is without commercial power. Thanks for the heads-up on the recall. 73, Ed - KL7UW From: Bob McGraw K4TAX To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 with Portable Generator Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Correct.?

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 with Portable Generator
The KPA500 does quite well with generators, especially the Honda family. These days it is the amplifier of choice for many DXpeditions who’s only power is provided by generators. Since the KPA500 has a linear supply, it is not troubled as much by modified sine wave generators and investors as those using a switching supply. 73!

That'd probably be fine. The el-cheapo generators I refer to usually specify "modified sine wave" output which when looked at on a CRO looks more like a square wave with slightly rounded corners.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 with Portable Generator
I'm not familiar with the 2200i, but our CQP and 7QP county expedition groups have used the 2000i for years to run a K3/P3/KPA500/KAT500 station on both CW and SSB. At times we have been able to run in ECO mode without issues, while at other times we've had issues voltage regulation with the KPA500. Short, beefy copper between the KPA500 and the generator helps. We mostly work CW, but also do SSB. 73, Jim K9YC On 3/7/2019 11:28 AM, Bob McGraw K4TAX wrote: The Honda EU2200i will handle the KPA500 quite well and provide power for other items.

[Elecraft] KPA-500 with Portable Generator
I ran 2018 Field day as 1E with TS-590S, KAT500, and KPA500 using a Honda 2000i and a UPS. I ran the generator in economy mode with no issues but was limiting my output power to 150 W to comply with my class limit. Although not required by the rules, my entire station was generator powered so the UPS made generator shut down for refuel easy. Also a lot easier to reconfigure after the event as one one plug to move. 73, Andy, k3wyc __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
