Ten kilometers! Wow, that’s DX!
I know that you meant 10,000 miles, but to the global readership most ops will
read it as “10 km“ first.

Hi Jim,
I've experienced a 10% drop in output as the finals warm up, which
doesn't ultimately make a large difference, but can be compensated if
desired (a percentage of 1 dB).
It can run legal limit on all bands; but into a SteppIR, because of the
transformer/balun in play not being

The duty cycle of FTx is 43.3% and may be less than RTTY or PSK

I've run the KPA1500 at or near legal limit into a resonant antenna on
Ftx, for hours at a time without issues. It will warm the shack and I

I don't have a kpa1500, but I recall someone from Elecraft saying that
since the efficiency decreases when power is reduced, backing off the power
does not reduce the heat load.

Thanks Fred -
When I get time, I might just pull the radio out of the rack and
remove/reset those pins...
Yeah, in the 'olden days' (mid 80s in my case) I was a bench tech fixing
dumb terminals from airports, among other things..they were connected to
each other in a daisy-chained serial 'party
Thanks Jack. I've never used macros, and none are shown in the K3 utility,
so I don't think that's the issue. I've identified at least 4 ways to
trigger the strange behavior from the front panel, and one via CAT.

I’ve been running my 1500 at 12-1300w out on FT8 when chasing rare dx, which
results in numerous cycles until I work the station I’m calling. My SWR is
always below 1.5:1, and I have no need to inject the tuner except on 160 where
I’ll lower the power as a precaution. Have had no issues with
