Re: [Elecraft] So here is one that has me stumped...

George, What happens when you transmit into a dummy load? What happens if you connect the K3 directly to the tuner (remove the amp from the path of coax)? If my understanding of your setup is correct, the K3 will indicate the SWR it sees into the input of the amp. OTOH, the amp sees the SWR

Thank you for the responses and suggestions: 1.) Ran the ant coax thru the balun directly to the K3- SWR 4.2/1 2.) Ran the ant coax thru the LDG 600 Pro bypassing the amp- high SWR 3.) When I hit the tune function on the LDG, I am getting from the tuner a message ERR_NO_RF_ blink once warning

At times like this, it is nice to have a manual tuner that you can substitute for the auto-tuner. Are you certain there is no problem with the antenna itself, such that the tuner cannot resolve the SWR? 73, Don W3FPR On 11/6/2013 11:49 AM, George Pontiakos wrote: Thanks Dale….I did change
