Well, thanks to the burners, most of Gerlach has cell coverage, free wifi, 2m
and 440M repeaters - linked to IRLP, and they have even installed their own
cell tower out near the Trego Hot Springs for cell coverage out in the Black
Rock. It's funny to zip by the hot springs on a 70MPH
Thanks to Dick for the detailed explanation of the tuner. I didn't know
about the 8 Kc resolution limitation of the tuner. Even with plus or
minus 8 Kc I should still be with a segment or two of the actual
frequency, so I should be lower than 1.5:1 SWR. Thanks everyone.

Hi Al,
You almost gave me a heart attack this morning. When I first started reading
your email below I mistakenly thought you were referring to Elecraft as the

Fortunately my heart rate and blood pressure dropped back to normal by the time

I did up front pay for a K4 based on the customer service, quality, and a
recommendation of N1MGO. This type of attention to detail and service is

Keep in mind, what you experienced does not scale in business.
Image if 50% of Elecraft’s customers wanted to call today and talk to Wayne or
Eric. That would not allow him to be working on the K4 or other new special
stuff.
This is why they all have staff. :)

Mike,
Actually, that really hasn't been my experience except Elecraft and
Tentec which is no longer in business. I remember a call to Elecraft
around 2100L EST when I ran into trouble when building my K2. The tech
answered the phone and we spent about an hour trouble shooting a test

We discovered yesterday that the photo of the AX1 on eHam was so fuzzy that it
was unrecognizable as a material object, must less a whip antenna. That's been
fixed (https://www.eham.net/reviews/view-product?id=14042).
A review category for the AXE1 was also just added
Fortunately, there are a lot of Ham Radio companies that you can
actually reach out to to the developers and who are active hams.
It isn't limited to just this one.

One thing that may confuse things is that the frequency counter has only
8 kHz (?) resolution, and it takes priority over data from the radio.
I'm unsure about this, as my KPA1500 doesn't often seem to change ATU
setting when start transmitting. It is possible, though, that the low

I didn't actually make a call but after meeting Elecraft at Hamvention, my
reaction was similar. Did not actually meet the top brass but one of their
salespeople was able to tell me more about sorting out my antenna situation
than many others combined.

includes the ATU, NB, manuals and power chord. The radio is in good

Thanks Harry NK9R
I should have checked for a new manual since the manual that came with
my KPA-1500 has 20 Kc bins which I see are now 10 Kc bins. In addition,
the tuning frequencies have been changed to 10 Kc increments. I think
that is why I was getting unexplained results from the tuner as I tuned
across
In late August or September I placed and paid for a K4. Could you please
supply me with my shipping sequence number. I am anxious to see how it
stacks up against my IC 7851. BTW I love my KPA 1500 which is replacing
my Alpha 9500.

It is very difficult to design an amp that does what you ask. Yes, my ACOM

Will the 5000 not set the per band output?
