Just FYI, as Pablo, EA4TX confirmed the relay used for T/R switching to bypassing FEL while radio is transmitting has operating time in between 5-7ms and releasing time even 7-10ms if parallel diode is used.
So it is not usable on CW ...if your K3 will start transmitting first element previously then FEL limiter is bypassed the RF power from K3 can damage the limiter. If your K3 will be back in RX mode again faster then FEL released to protection path then your K3 is not protected during that period... ----- 73 - Petr, OK1RP "Apple & Elecraft freak" B:http://ok1rp.blogspot.com MeWe: https://bit.ly/2HGPoDx MeWe: https://bit.ly/2FmwvDt -- Sent from: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
