Re: [Elecraft] The ERR 12V Message Question

That issue went away for me when I switched to a shorter heavier power cord. How long/what gauge is your present power cable? Running 10 watts shouldn't present a problem, not much current draw so not much loss in the cable/connector. Dennis NJ6G On 7/2/2019 18:07, Joseph M. Durnal wrote:

I’m with you 100%, John! Hope Elecraft is listening! Love the mcHF, but there is really NO customer support. If the current group of developers aren’t interested in fixing a bug or adding something new, you’re told to do it yourself. Not something I’m interested in doing, or really able to

[Elecraft] [T1] Newly assembled T1 inop

Just completed an Elecraft T1 ATU. I built and used one several years ago and wished I hadn’t sold it, so built another one. But it’s not working. When I plug-in the (tested good) 9v battery, the yellow LED blinks 4 times (not mentioned in the manual that I can see), but there’s no response to
