I hope you guys can help me with this one
So far this has occured only on 40 meters around 7.061
While calling CQ the following has occured twice:
1. Both times, the rig simultaneously sticks on a dit, I'm using the internal
keyer, and displays "Hi Current" on the LCD. This occur very briefly, less
than a one half second in duration.
I have tried to verify high current drain but is is so quick, by the time
I look at the amp meter on the MFJ-4225MV power supply the needle is going down.
2. During the second occurance, which was last night, everything happended as
above, however, and this really bothers me, the receiver is stuck on "FL1". I
do have the DSP installed.
3. Both times I was running around 80 watts
4. I have no other problems with the rig.
Rig configuration:
a. K2 with KPA100, have been operating with the KPA100 for about one month
without problems.
b. KAT100, which I have been using for around a week with out difficulty.
c. Have all of the options for the K2 installed.
d. Have a Low Pass Bencher filter between the KPA100 and the KAT100, localized
TVI with my SONY TV which is on cable, solved the problem
e. WM1 Computer Meter - SWR meter and Power Meter
Last night I attached dummy load and attempted to replicate the condition at
various power level without success.
Any clues as to what might be wrong.
AND MOST OF ALL HOW DO I GET IT OFF OF "FL1".
Thanks in advance,
