[Elecraft] KAT500 "Bypass SWR"?

My KAT500 utility program shows the tuned VSWR, generally a low number, and it also shows "Bypass SWR". Is that a reading of the feed line SWR without the tuner in the circuit? TNX. 73 de Brian W3BW Brian F. Wruble, C.F.A. Sent from my iPad Air 2

Re: [Elecraft] KAT500 Bypass?

Hi, No compensation is necessary. I have a Ridge Equipment dummy load on one of my ports and it measures 1.02 with an LP-100A in SWR in bypass mode on 10m. AB2TC - Knut Dick Dievendorff-4 wrote The former. Dick, K6KR Sent from my iPhone On Aug 9, 2015, at 18:17, Jim Miller lt;

Re: [Elecraft] KAT500 Bypass?

I once did a TDR measurement of the distance between the input and output in bypass mode. It comes out to be about 18.Interesting, I would have expected much less. 73 de Brian/K3KO On 8/11/2015 16:55 PM, ab2tc wrote: Hi, No compensation is necessary. I have a Ridge Equipment dummy load

[Elecraft] KAT500 Bypass?

When the KAT500 is in Bypass are all elements really bypassed? Or are they bypassed with compensation for the internal paths? Is there an internal bypass calibration required? 73 jim ab3cv __ Elecraft mailing list Home:
