Re: [Elecraft] Solar Charge Controllers (was Field Day)

Thee is an issue with the cheaper solar controllers - they tend to place the switching transistor in the ground leg, making connections difficult. For example the Sunforce controller that Jim mentions uses an N-channel FET as its pass transistor, in the ground lead. If you then connect the

You'll get recommendations for MacLoggerDX, and it is nice software, but it's also $95. I recommend RUMLog, which does just about everything MLDX does, but its free (or whatever you choose to donate). There is a contest version, called RUMped as well as versions for the iPad/iPhone and they

David, If you have a dummy load and any sort of Wattmeter which can measure in 10-20 W range, that should tell you if you're getting NO power out. And make sure you have the power out dialed in at 10 watts or so in the KX3, not set to zero. 73, Phil W7OX On 6/8/16 8:42 AM, David Davis
