Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 SWR Calibration

Bob; The KPA500 does not use a Breune style bridge, but rather a true directional coupler. It does not need to be nulled; there is no adjustment. There is an adjustment for the power; see the PWR ADJ setting in the manual. 73! Jack, W6FB > On Nov 17, 2019, at 6:58 AM, Bob McGraw K4TAX

[Elecraft] KPA500 SWR Calibration

I need to null the SWR detector on my KPA500.   I've not found any adjustment procedure as such.   And from the schematic, there is none. I do have a rather precise Bird 50.5 ohm dummy load.  I see SWR values higher than 1:1 on the LED display and also on the LCD display on higher frequency

Robin, That messsage is displayed when the small clock battery has been replaced and the clock has not yet been set. If you have the KAF2, see the KAF2 manual for the clock setting procedure - follow the instructions EXACTLY. You must set the date before the time. If you have the KDSP2,

[Elecraft] K3 Monitor on Line Output

On SSB, I have the monitor level set to zero, and hear nothing in the headphones. However, when I record the audio from the line outputs, I get my own audio when transmitting, at a much higher level than the rx audio. (LIN OUT nor 050) (No, it's not the mic on another headset connected to the

[Elecraft] Here is an odd one...

We had a power failure, and when the power came back on, my K3 did not see, nor key my KPA500... It was working fine just prior to the power fail... We were not home when the power failed... The battery backup came on line and protected the K3 from the odd power spike, which I assume happen

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 SWR Calibration

Jack, et.al. Thanks,  Yes I see from the circuit it is not a Breune.   I have calibrated the indications for power and all is well in that regard.  I just see a higher SWR that actually exists.  That under certain conditions causes the amp to fault.   I'll figure a work-a-round and be able

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 SWR Calibration

I know I've seen an explanation somewhere, but it's common to have different readings between the tuner, amp and rig when connected to an antenna. Readings seem to even out when connected to a dummy load...at least in my case. 20 meters is my worst, and the amp will kick out at times. On
