Re: [Elecraft] Follow-up to OT
Jim I found the (so called Optimizers) to be VERY Noisy when the Sun is Just starting to hit the Solar Panel ARRAY and the Optimizer it Trying to Balance the Current (load) of ALL the panels. I would Bet the FCC Test are being Run when the Sun is Either Full ON or Full OFF, Not in its Full Dynamic Switching Mode.

Hi Rich, Thanks for the replay.Yes, KDVR is not installed and I had it in “nor”. I changed to “Not Installed” and now the message has gone.

Re: [Elecraft] ERR DVR
Josep - If you do not have the DVR installed in your K3, go to the Config Menu and check the KDVR3 entry. It should say 'not inSt'. If it says 'nor' then turn it to 'not inSt'. I hope that solved the problem. 73 de David G4DMP -- + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + | David M Pratt, Kippax, Leeds.| | Website: https://www.g4dmp.co.uk | + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
