[Elecraft] KPA1500 ATU question

[Jorge Diez - CX6VM]

hello

How can I use the KPA1500 to remember what bands need ATU IN and what bands
need ATU BYP?

I have ATU IN on HF bands, but when I change to 6 mts I need that KPA1500
change to ATU BYP

Is this possible?

thanks!

The easiest way is to set the defaults per band in the KPA1500 Utility.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 ATU question

[Dick Dievendorff]

What I do is leave the ATU function ON for all bands.  If my 6 meter SWR is 
“really good”, the ATU tune operation (done once in a “training session”) 
discovers this and selects ATU bypassed as the preferred ATU setting. Both ATU 
LEDs are illuminated, indicating that the ATU function is enabled, but the 
current ATU a setting is bypassed.  

Some of my HF antennas have good SWR at one end of the band but need more ATU 
assistance at other frequencies.  I don’t turn the ATU on and off, my ATU relay 
settings are “bypassed” on some frequencies.

You can choose the “really good” SWR threshold, by band, in a menu or the 
KPA1500 Utility.  I think it defaults to 1.2 to 1.

[Elecraft] Finally! My K4 is coming

[Dave Kelley via Elecraft]

Hi all,

I’m sure you are all pretty bored with the shortages and waiting thing.  I’m 
just excited because I finally got the most expensive email I’ve ever gotten.  
;)

The funny thing is, I really don’t think I want to sell my K3S and gang.  
That’s still an amazing radio after all these years.

Where are things at on remoting the K4?  I see some scattered beta apps out 
there that look good.  Are there some links I should be looking at to see the 
latest?

Last I saw from Wayne, a month or so ago, was that it isn't done yet.

[Dave Sublette]

Please accept this in the spirit in which it is offered.  I think it is
absolutely hilarious that after waiting months to get one's hands on the
coolest radio on the planet, the first question is, "How can I remote
this?"  In other words, it is going to be placed somewhere that it cannot
even be seen.

Just sayin'.

[Elecraft] Remoting new K4

OMs,    While I love the K4 in front of me and enjoy what many call a rural 
location with 6.7 acres and grazing around me those people in town have very 
good reason to seek remote operation above all else.    It is just hell putting 
up with EMI, antenna restrictions and yes sadly often neighbours.   So the 
remoting of a new K4 makes good sense.   It is if well implemented, then 
Elecraft has a great sales feature.     73 Doug EI2CNSent from my

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 ATU question

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

IMO, the really critical thing to do is to follow the table in the 
manual and "train" the ATU at the recommended intervals on each band.  
Once you have done this it effectively becomes a 1500-watt transceiver 
(unless, of course, you have more than two antennas per band).
