Hi I have completed construction of an XV50, in fact I finished it a while ago, and it all seems ok except for one thing. The Tx power LED display only lights one at a time, even though I have GRPH=BAR and OPT=PERF selected on the K2. It does the same if GRPH=DOT is selected, too.
Is this possibly due to an assembly fault? If so I'd be glad of an indication of where to look. I have done very careful inspections of my soldering and can see no dodgy joint that may be the culprit. Is there perhaps one connection that may cause this, or any diagnostic procedure that I can follow to trace the fault? I am using it as the only XV connected to my K2. the K2 software is displayed as '2.01H 1.02', and the XV50 U1 has a label with 1.6e on it. I have K2 #2378 (without the 100W amp etc) with the A to B updates and K160RX, KNB2, KIO2, KDSP2, KSB2 and KAT2 installed. An external meter shows that the power going out to the antenna is what it should be according to the one lit LED. I must have done something silly to get this effect, but I am flummoxed. Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? I've seen a lot of problems solved on this reflector, and hope that the kind and knowledgeable people out there may be able to help with this one. I normally read any Email -- it's almost only this reflector, in digest form -- once a week on Sunday evening, so please forgive delays in replying to any response to my plea. 73 all Harry Weston M0SOP _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
