Well Eric, Kelvin is an absolute number, so there is no "less than zero"
whereas Celsius is a relative number. That's why.

driver by choosing "Browse my computer for driver software". Then, in
the next step select the directory where the driver has been downloaded

Lower case for kilo and hecto might have been chosen to avoid collisions with
fundamental and derived units: K is Kelvin, H is Henries. Of course, micro
collides with m (meters), but Mega was already taken.
Just a guess.

Yes, it could be in the tuner - set the tuner menu to CALP and see if it
still happens.
CALP bypasses all the L/C elements, so if the problem is in the tuner
L/C section, it will be bypassed. If the problem were in the tuner

Normally, the output of the amplifier would go to a tuner, like the KAT500, or
whatever
I currently have about five antennas connected to the output of my KPA500. I
have a combination of KAT500 with its three antenna connectors, and one of
those goes to a DX Engineering 2 x 8 antenna switch mounted at the base of my
tower.

Quick question……..
How to you guys, using the KPA500, run 2 antennas? The picture of this unit
doesn’t show any extra antenna ports….is there an option for that?
I’m running a wire ant. for most HF bands and a separate yagi for 6M. I
don’t really want to fabricate an external relay system.
Not sure if it was you and I cant even remember what band 40 I think,
but during the contest I did run across what appeared to be a rather
wide ssb signal typical of ESSB, rag chewing The audio was great
sounding a little reminiscent of some the AM nets on 40m I would

I know I might be beating a dead horse, but my recent experience in big,

The t/r transitions in QSK and semi-QSK CW when there are nearby strong
signals make a horrible racket -- enough to make me turn down the volume
when sending, which negates t
