Re: [Elecraft] K3 Power Changes When Driving My Amplifier
Yes, this is a very helpful menu item. I normally keep TUN PWR set at 20 watts, which allows amp tuneup to be started at lower power with less likelihood of damage due to a switching or antenna mistake. 73, andy ae6y -Original Message- From: Mike Reublin Sent: Friday, November 22, 2013 10:55 AM To: pastor...@verizon.net Cc: Elecraft Reflector Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 Power Changes When Driving My Amplifier On the K3 check your CONFIG:TUN PWR setting against your power setting. 73, Mike NF4L On Nov 22, 2013, at 9:43 AM, pastor...@verizon.net wrote: Hi, this is Mark Griffin, KB3Z.

On the K3 check your CONFIG:TUN PWR setting against your power setting. 73, Mike NF4L On Nov 22, 2013, at 9:43 AM, pastor...@verizon.net wrote: > Hi, this is Mark Griffin, KB3Z.

[Elecraft] K3 Power Changes When Driving My Amplifier
Hi, this is Mark Griffin, KB3Z. I noticed last evening while on 40 meter SSB that when driving my amplifier that I had the K3 set at 48 watts input. As I was hitting the tune button I noticed that the reading on the K3 was now at 50 watts. But, when I took the amplifier off line it was back to 48. I guess I never noticed this before and maybe it's normal. Has anyone else had this occur? And, if so, is there a fix for this? Thanks!
