Don, as described that was NOT the opposite sideband. On the video the stronger signal was at 14091.883 kHz on the dial. That is the frequency of the mark tone; the space tone would have been at 14091.713 kHz. The pitch in use was 915 Hz mark, so the suppressed carrier frequency would be

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500

At more than $6000 per unit (in 2006 dollars), I'm not sure 600 people would pony up the cash. I saw the both KPA800 and KPA1500 at Dayton and that's the closest I've come to actually drooling over a piece of amateur gear. The KPA1500 TXed 1800 watts into a dummy load for the entire hamfest.

In Dayton - 7 or 8 years ago, Elecraft was quietly showing what I recall was a 1.5kw solid state amp - perhaps as much as 2kw? Anyway they were running it key down into a dummy load at the FDIM hotel (I think it dimmed the lights on the floor). While it did not look like a prototype, it

Are you *absolutely sure* you are using the 400 Hz IF filter? By ear, it sounds as if you have a wider IF filter that is centered on the carrier and allowing the image to reach the DSP. Since your display shows FL4, is it possible that you have all your filters reversed? 73, ... Joe, W4TV

I also use a mixer and I use a bigger one, a Behringer 1622FX. It has two stereo mixing busses, Main and Sub, so really four channels. You can route any input to either or both and fade from left to right as you wish. I have all the sources from rigs and the PC sound card and mics going to inputs.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 Standby to Operate problem

Is there an asterisk on the display of the KPA500? If there is, it thinks it is in TX mode even if the rig is not in transmit. I had that problem and it was a poorly soldered resistor on the front panel board, but a shorted TX line (RCA cable) would do the same thing. Elecraft replaced the board.

After doing some more testing in last weekends RTTY contest, it appears that I made an erroneous statement as to what I was hearing and where. What I found is that as I tune down in frequency and find a signal that will decode, if I then tune down another 170 Hz I'll hear the inverted signal.

[Elecraft] KPA500 Standby to Operate problem

My KPA500 [#934] has developed a fault in Receive mode. The strength of the signal received by the K3 driving the amplifier reduces significantly when the KPA500 is switched from Standby to Operate using the front panel pushbutton.  The S meter displays a 3 to 5  ‘S’ point reduction in signal

I don't think you're an idiot. I've reported a few defects to Elecraft over the last 8 years. Usually they get fixed and are sometimes folded into production. There are thousands of guys using K3s that include a fix that was developed using my radio as a prototype after I demonstrated it to
