Hi, Roger. What's in a name? Herein lies some of the confusion. On the K3, the 100W amp is the KPA3, not KPA100 (K2 amp). As to your problem, would it not be more efficient to use the low level output available from the KXV3(a) to drive your transverter? This would eliminate the waste of all that power in the dummy load, and provide a cleaner output, as the K3 LPA board (12w amp) is not used, I believe. Good luck, Bruce, N1RX > I should have said that it is a K3 I have. > Is it possible to change the cut-in point of the KPA100 ??
