I tried
Don,
Ok, but why always on the low side and not the hi side
of error?
2 to 3 watts out of 10 is 20% which is not that good,
and why only at the higher frequencies?
On 10 meters, it might say 12 watts out but only give 8
actual watts
I want to know why it rolls off at the higher frequencies,
Brett,
In TUNE, the power control loop is not as tight in the firmware portion
of the loop as compared with normal keying. The reason for that is to
allow those using a manual tuner with their K2 to be able to adjust it
without the power jumping quickly all over the place.
I am glad to hear
At lunch I did some more tests.
I made a dummy load using 4 200 ohm 2 watt resistors, measured
the resistance at 50 ohms, and plugged that right into the watt meter.
The other end of the wattmeter plugged into the K2 antenna jack
using adaptors.
I did the tx setup per the book, and now have at l
4 matches
