Re: [Elecraft] Intermittent KPA-1500 SWR problem
Pete I had not read about your KPA1500 issue until now. I can relate with the same problem. Very frustrating but maybe now a solution. Thanks for the follow up! I’ll let you know the results of the download. 73 Dan - NB2P “Sometimes the correct path is the most tortured one” On Thursday, April 18, 2024, 11:16 AM, Pete Smith N4ZR wrote: Readers may recall that I had been asking for help with an intermittent problem causing my KPA-1500 to trip due to high SWR.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 Sub RX Not Working
As Rick said; Go into config MENU KRX3, set it to BNC or ATU depending on how the rear antenna coax is cabled, then exit the menu and cycle power.
