Re: [Elecraft] Day 7 trying to get a RSA
Ronnie, I'm looking into this and will get back to you ASAP.

[Elecraft] Day 7 trying to get a RSA
Still no call backs from technical support Still no answers from supp...@elecraft.net The Women who answer the phone won’t give me an RSA All the heck I want is an RSA to send my KPA-1500 in for repair Why does this have to be so hard?

Re: [Elecraft] Funny K4 Story
I have an external meter on each of my antenna feedlines so I know the actual SWR for each antenna. Also see a difference in the reported power out on my (still) K3 versus the power reported on the external SWR/PWR meter which is to be expected given the line impeadance for my antennas is not 50 Ohms resistive. Will likely pick up a vector power/SWR meter to get a better view of my antennas.

Since it always reads close to 1:1 when the tuner is engaged you may not notice if the antenna has a high SWR. Alan N1AL On 5/16/2021 5:10 PM, Wayne Burdick wrote: The K4 shows all four TX bar graphs simultaneously: power, SWR, ALC, and compression. In addition you can select numeric display of power, SWR, supply voltage and current drain for the status area, which defaults to date/time.

But, of course, I had tuned the K4 for the first time on 80M when I received it! A learning moment (operator error?). Gonna try to check the antennas out a bit more frequently! 73, Tom W4KX __ 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

[Elecraft] New PC not finding the KPA 1500 on its USB port
I just purchased a new Dell laptop to be installed at my remote KPA 1500. When I plug the USB cable from the KPA into the PC it sees the port but will not communicate with it as the driver for the FT232R UART shows as not compatible and the driver is not installed. I did a system search for any driver and windows update does not find one. Any suggestions on how to get this to communicate? I have tried 3 different USB cables and no difference. The device managed in Windows just gives me the same no compatible driver.
