By that assessment, sometimes 10 kW is "QRP" (can't be heard) and sometimes
100 mW is QRO (heard Q5).
It's ALL about band cdx.

Idaho is a great place for our hobby. That is where I got my start in the
80's from Don KA7T. Good luck. I am excited about the chatter the last week
or so about our wishes for an amp. Hope it happens. There have been some
great ideas so far.

end
of the transmission line? As others pointed out such an ATU won't be small
due to the potentially huge voltages and currents involved, it won't be
lightweight and it certainly won't be cheap.

The Jim Creek antenna facility is amazing - a series of over mile long wires
(cables) for the radiator strung from mountain to mountain across a valley
being fed with IIRC a megawatt of VLF RF.

filter with a cutoff above
150 Hz helps a great deal.
Listening to the variety of squeaks, chirps and other noises produced by
electronic discharges all over the planet is a fascinating hobby in itself.
They are commonly referred to as 'Sferics, short for atmospherics.

Hitting the band switch on the KPA500 is a quick way to avoid cycling
through the bands sequentially on the K3.

Same here. No add'l driver needed.
Maybe uninstall the FTDI site, restart the computer and, while connected to
the internet, plug in the USB device again.

has a free version but you must remember to manually update it daily. I
willingly pay for good stuff that works, so I have a paid subscription.
Costs about $22/year for each machine.
I've considered switching to Windows Defender but also avoid fixing things
that aren't broken.

ights, etc., are
included.
Larger amps will *REQUIRE* a 240VAC circuit which, unlike Europe, we in the
USA seldom have unless special wiring is installed.
