Re: [Elecraft] KAT500 Fault

I finally found out the answer. In checking the AuxBus cables, I found a cable connecting the K3 Key Out to the KPA500 PA Key. Removing this cable made the fault go away. Perhaps I had followed the Figure 3 on page 23 of the KPA500 manual at some point. Anyway there is a lot of cabling back there.

[Elecraft] K3 Distorted Audio On Transmit

I have a K3, P3 and KPA500. Last night I was encountering some high SWR. The K3 has the KAT3 internal 100 watt antenna tuner. I do not have the KAT500 tuner. If the SWR was too high, the KPA500 indicated a fault and I went back to 100 watts with the K3. I tried bypassing the KAT3 to see how the

[Elecraft] K3 Transmit Bandwidth for 60 Meters

The upper sideband bandwidth on 60 meters is limited by the rules to 2.8 KHz. I have the 2.7 KHz filter for FL1. In CONFIG menu I have FLTX SB set to FL1. Is this sufficent or do I need to pay attention to TX EQ setting in MAIN menu? If so, what are the settings? 73 de Dave W0RU -- View this
