Howdy:
Just commenced phase 3 transmitter test. Results: excessive current.
Conditions:
Using a 3 amp power supply. Set K2 at 2 watts power out. Cal
current set
to 2 max. Have analog watt meter connected to K2 and 50 ohm dummy
load
connected to watt meter.
When "Tune" mode activated, I get "high current on display" it
reads 8.0
and my power supply ammeter pegs well over 3 amps and shuts down
after 5
seconds.
This will also happen when the front panel output control is set to
one
watt.
As careful and experienced as i think I may be, I certainly have a
problem.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
