Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 - Advantage of min fan speed?

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 - Advantage of min fan speed?

I have been following this discussion with some interest. This morning I set the idling fan speed to 1, and after sitting at the same desk with it for a couple hours, I am really no longer conscious of the noise (I have other things happening). The non-operating temp has settled in at 28ºC. And

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-1500 failing on 160...AGAIN!

Folks - Looks like this thread has way drifted OT.   Let's close it for now. I also gave the original poster a call and his KPA1500 is OK. He made some new changes external to the 1500 based on list comments and the problem is no longer present. We'll stay in touch with him to make sure he

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 - Advantage of min fan speed?

Thanks to everyone who contributed their experience of operating with min fan speed set above 0. I have some ideas for a test series and I'll share anything I learn from it. Here is a teaser for those interested in KPA500 thermal management. Did you know that, for a KPA500 that has not

Re: [Elecraft] KX3; Firmware Update

Hi. The KX3 Utility Rev 1.18.7.3 (the Linux version* at least) does have a "Set KX3 Time" function, under the "Configuration" tab. Perhaps there is a later rev utility for your system OS, than you have at the moment? 73. Dave G0WBX. (* Running the x86 version on Mint 19.2 64 bit, with all the

You have to use the best quality connecting cables. A trip to Palomar Engineers with a description of your set up will help so they can sell you the correct EMI suppression toroid set up. And, YES, even some of Elecraft’s cables can be (or become) defective as described in this site. A

Re: [Elecraft] Pro Audio Engineerint power Supply

Several years ago, Howard sent me one to test. It was very quiet when only powering my KX3 on receive, which draws only about 150 mA. When I used it to supply something that drew 4A, it was noisy. So the question is, are you using it power anything else in addition to the KX3? A good common
