Re: [Elecraft] K3s power level macro

[Robert Strickland via Elecraft]

Jack...

Works just like you outlined. Also, I notice that the power out 
indicator on the KPA500 reads the power out of the k3 when in standby 
mode. I wonder how accurate that is compared to a dedicated inline power 
meter. At any rate, looking forward to this new flexibility.

Is there a way to program a macro within the K3s to set power level(s)? 
My goal is to be able to shift between low power barefoot [100w] and a 
drive level for the KPA500 [15-20w]. Thanks

Re: [Elecraft] Noise from KAT500?

[Steve L]

There have been several tests in QST of switching power supplies in the past - 
including analysis of RF noise they create which was actually scary.  Some are 
better than others, but all generate RF noise.  

I second the vote for non-switching (i.e. linear) supply from Astron (or 
equivalent) and eliminating all of the “wall wart” style supplies you can.
