[Elecraft] KPA500 No Output on 6m
Bought and assembled a KPA500 kit in 2018. No output on 6m!! I've used it on 10-80 and love the performance. Never checked six until I became interested in six this summer. Put up a 3 ele yagi and its good barefoot/good match but no output on six using the KPA... Any ideas?

[Elecraft] KPA500 No Output on 6m
Is the KPA500 being keyed on 6 m? (Does the asterisk appear in the KPA500 display?) Some rigs, such as the Kenwood TS-590, require the keying output to be specified separately for 6 m than for the HF bands.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 No Output on 6m
Hi Dave, More information would be helpful. Are you seeing your radio's output thru the KPA500 (and on the meters) with the amp in bypass mode? Is the radio's PTT properly keying the amp? Etc.
