Re: [Elecraft] loss through KXPA100 if running with PA Off on KX3

2016-12-29 Thread Bill Johnson 
I agree with Don.  I use the KXPA100 with both the KX3 and KX2.  Not  a
noticeable difference.

Terry,

There should be no loss when the KXPA100 is turned off.
OK, maybe a wee bit, but certainly not significant.

In this review, the measured KXAT100 bypass loss was measured at 0%. The 
measurement had an accuracy of +/- 3%.

Terry,
Could you be using Ant2?
I believe the KXPA100 bypasses to Ant 1.

[Elecraft] loss through KXPA100 if running with PA Off on KX3

2016-12-28 Thread Terry Brown 
I have the KX3 and KXPA100.  If I turn off the PA from the menu on the KX3,
is there an significant power loss, say I am running at 15 watts,  going
through the amp antenna connection instead of connecting the antenna
directly to the KX3?

 

Thanks,

 

Terry, N7TB
