As far as I can see from the manual, the KPA100 T-R switch is bypassed in QRP mode. As the intermods occur in both QRP and high power modes the KPA100 T-R switch can not be the only culprit. With more careful observations I see that there are fairly small changes in the S-meter readings on the intermod products (on the order of one S-unit) when I switch between QRP and high-power modes, so the high power T-R circuitry may not be completely off the hook either.
As a matter of interest, I measured the composite input voltage from the antenna with an oscilloscope today; it is around 1.5 volts peak-to-peak. Not an insignificant signal environment to deal with ! 73, Steve VE3SMA --- Vic K2VCO <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The t/r switch is used whether or > not the KPA100 is activated. __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
