Sam K5OAI sed:
room temp 27.7 F
Unless the room is in an igloo, he probably meant 27.7C = 82F.
Good temperature benchmarks to keep in mind are:
(a) 20C = 68F is normal room temperature; and
(b) 37C = 98.6F is normal body temperature.
Naturally, the K3 temperatures will be higher than the
A KXPA100, S/N 0029... a Field Test unit ... arrived today (Thursday).

Now, Rose can finalize her KX3 / KXPA100 carrying case design.

bingo op error :-/ (why am I not surprised?)
room temp was 27.7 *C* not *F*
although it had actually been 20F outside earlier that morning
Also, thanks for the calibration tip for the PA FP temps
I found they were both many degrees higher than actual room temp

Use 7 -9 oz. saddle grade leather - hand-tooled. Looks good and is
nearly indestructible, while providing good protection to the device.

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions - the issue has been resolved, and the
K-Line is now work as it should, per the manual. Had a bad board in the KAT500
and was unable to run the KAT500 Utility program. And that meant I was not able
to set it for optimizing for the KPA500. Put in the new
I use this as well, and it works very well -- and very silently. Excellent
product.

I don't get it. If field test units are now just hitting testers, what about
the so called full production units date of Nov 13.2 days from nowand
the statement from Elecraft we will keep you informed

Hi George,
The KXPA100 has been in field test for about two months by approximately 10
testers, which includes a number of our staff members. Believe me, we've all
been beating it up. The amps that went out most recently are actually
production units, but we still refer to them as field-test
We continue shipping to some field testers even after the production units ship.
Ken is not one of the early FTs.
More info tomorrow. :-)

fyi .. after calibration
room temp = 80F
RX (dual) current drain 1.4-1.5A
PA temp = 91.4F (no tx for last 2 hrs)
FP temp = 100F (rx with dual rx for last 4 hrs)

will the interrupt feature work even when the tuner is in the bypass mode?
For example: at 3.550 I don't need a tuner, so I put it into bypass. I then
move to 3.750 but forget to reset the tuner to auto. will the KPA500 be
protected with the key-line interrupt even when I am in bypass mode?
Bill:
The intent is that you can keep the tuner in auto or perhaps better manual.
When you tune initially at 3550 and press ATU tune, the tune search quickly
finds the ATU bypassed setting is appropriate because the SWR when L and C are
bypassed is 1.2 or better. It saves bypassed as the
12 matches
