I recently purchased a K1 for use at our vacation QTH, and gave it its first workout today during NAQP. It's not a contest rig, but it did just fine :-)
I've got a couple of questions: - I have two band modules: 40/30/20/15 and 80/17. Do I need to do any recalibration when I swap? How involved is this? - I have a KAT1, and it worked fine until I tried to use my W3EDP on 40m. It's not really a W3EDP because I feed it remotely with coax and a BL2 balun. I have the 'output' menu item set to 5W. If I use the 4:1 setting on the BL2, the KAt1 would get down to about 1.7:1, but the max output was 3.8W (according to the display). If I use the 1:1 setting, it would only get down to 3.6:1 or so, but was happy to send 5W out. Huh? 73 de chris K6DBG _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
