Re: [Elecraft] k3 no power out over 12 watts

Hi Scott,

Check the KPA3 settings in the CONFIG menu
to be sure the 100 watt PA is not bypassed.

If the KPA3 is set to PA NOR in the CONFIG
menu, then you may have a diode failure
in the PIN diode T/R switch or the PA bypass
PIN diode switch.

[Elecraft] k3 no power out over 12 watts

2022-05-06 Thread NE9U - Scott Jasper
Turned on my k3 couple days ago and I suddenly have no power out over 12 
watts.  Had been working fine prior to that.??


Tried running the power calibration routine.  5 watts calibration 
worked.  50 watts erred out.


rig is not in test mode.

any hints on anything to check?
