[Elecraft] KAT100 stopped working

2022-12-04 Thread Hans Bonnesen via Elecraft
)Iswithed off the set entirely to prevent a burn out of the PA-transistors. Furtheer investigation showed that these were unharmed, but apparently the relays of the automatic tuner do not work anymore. What went wrong here, and how to remedy?

A few words from a K2 enthusiast: Jimmi, WA4ILO and Wayne plus Eric of Elecraft hit the nail on the head. The K2 is some thing special. I am sure that somewhere out there, a scriptwriter is waiting to grasp the story, so heartbreaking laid out by Jimmy. Being just a few days off the OSCARS,

[Elecraft] K2 - intermittant noise on 60 meters

2015-08-31 Thread Hans Bonnesen
After reinstalling the internal battery in my K2, a new and hitherto never heard intermittant noise is now heard in display mode. It appears as one every second. Could that be noise from the charging circuit entering the recently installed KDSP2 unit. Any clues to this ?? Hans , OZ5RB

2014-12-01 Thread Hans Bonnesen
The term “can easily handle from 200mW to 100 watts” suggests that even more than 100 watts is permissible. Does that indicate that even 200 watts from a Palomar TX5300A could be handled by the KAT100 ? OZ5RB, Hans __ Elecraft mailing
