[Elecraft] Follow up KXPA100 low power problem

I first want to thank all those who responded to my post. In a follow up email it was suggested that I check for voltage drop in the Elecraft 12v fused power cord. Sure enough, at key down, voltage dropped from 14v to 10.5v. I connected a 10ga power cord directly from my PS to the amp.

When I purchased my K3 from a gentleman upgrading to the K3A he included a PR 6 preamp. Rich would not transfer ownership until he knew "everything was up to date and to factory specs". (Like to deal with him - that is "his style"). He sent the rig and PR 6 back to the factory so I believe the

Re: [Elecraft] KXPA100 Power Out Issue

Hi,The Operators manual rev A7, says a minimum of 13.8 v to get !00 W output. There have been several posts in the past that if the dc is less than 13.8 results in less than 100 w output from the KXPA100. 73Jim HK7SSS In a message dated 9/7/2020 11:38:19 AM Pacific Standard Time,

Hmmm ... The International Morse Code is 1905 technology, and the American Morse [Vail] Code is 1840's.  You're suggesting we should all abandon CW because it's old technology? [;=) 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe County CWops #142 On 9/6/2020 7:06 PM, Barry wrote: My point

[Elecraft] KXPA100 Power Out Issue

I have noticed over the past weeks that my KXPA100 will not put out any more than 70-80 watts when I am running my KX3 showing 100 watts output. The attenuator is not on. I have two antennas. One is a 3 element yagi that is below 1.2:1 on all bands without the tuner, so when I tune, it just

Hey guys, I am seeing this behavior on my P3 and am wondering if this is how it's supposed to work or or there is something wrong. I set the REF LVL so I am just above the noise floor and then randomly a few minutes later either the floor goes way down or way up. In other words, I adjust the

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] KAT3 not functioning on 6m

No, that’s not it. The right is ALREADY in split mode when i attempt to use the auto-tune. You get the N/A flash if VFO A and B aren’t set to the same mode, other than SSB/CW. WSJT-X sets it up correctly, with both VFOs in DATA mode. > On Sep 7, 2020, at 9:50 AM, w4sc wrote: > > Bill, >

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] KAT3 not functioning on 6m

The K3 allows split in data modes, but only provided both VFOs are already in data mode. The K3 will not allow cross-mode split between Data and CW/SSB. If you are seeing "SPL N/A" when you try to enable split with VFO A in a Data mode, what that tells me is that VFO B is in CW or SSB, not in

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] KAT3 not functioning on 6m

Bill, The K3 only allows the “split” mode for SSB and/or CW to be enabled, at least from panel. Trying to enable split in any other mode, the VFO B window flashes “N/A”. You may have different indications / results if the split command is sent via the CAT, and a mode other than CW or SSB

[Elecraft] KX3 what's it worth.

I have a KX3, sn 6474, that was mostly used as the tunable IF for 10GHz and up contests. In 2017 it developed a fault with the external TX control line.. This occurred just before the 10 GHz and up contest and I ending up buying a new KX3 and sending this one back to Elecraft for repair. It has
