Hi All,
I have a quick question for you all ....
I ran an over night WSPR session on the 40m band last night with just 5w
of O/P from my F3K.
I was somewhat surprised to see the temperature of the PA being reported
to be at 58 degrees C and at times over 60 degrees C.
Is this normal when running at such low power levels?
The fans were set to come on at 40 degrees C thus they were on a heck of
a lot!
What is the max working temperature of the PA in the F3K?
or put another way, at what temperature do I need to shut things off to
stop them going pop!!
The F3K was running at 13.8v from my Diamond GSV3000 PSU as always.
I had WSPR set to 20% TX and 80% RX.
Mike.
