Good Evening,
I was working on a pile of brush when I heard an odd sound. It took
a while to remember what it was. At first I thought someone had snuck
their old truck nearby. It sounded like a very rusty hinge opening.
When it repeated I heard the breathy finish and knew it was elk. Fo
While one can measure a dummy load with an ohm meter, this is only the
DC resistance of the resistive element. It does not assure that it is
non-reactive as reactance is an AC component related to frequency.
Dummy loads should appear as 50 ohms at all frequencies within the range
where they
Sorry, that is twenty resistors, not fifty.

The QRPGuys QRP tuner kit I built is very nice, but don't go over its 12W
limit, or you'll blow the diode.
Thankfully, I have a pile of them on hand just in case. ;)

I built the Oak Hills Research RFL-100 dummy load kit. It is supposed to be
good to
144 MHz, so it should be fine at 50. If you’ve never built a kit, this is a
good one to
start with. The kit is $50. I got the $5 BNC option, since my shack is 100% BNC.

Caution ... Some higher wattage resistors use iron wire windings which are
of course inductive and are unsuitable for RF dummy loads.

Any decent commercial nominally 50 ohm 100W+ DL ought to work fine, as long as
it isn’t a piece of junk that falls apart at 50 MHz. It doesn’t need to be

A good one that you know is 50 ohms over the range of frequencies and power
you want to use it at. Unfortunately, any particular model may be good or
bad, depending on how it has been used or abused. Is there any way you can
get access to an analyzer to determine if the dummy load is good? I have a
What are recommended dummy loads to consider for use when running the K3 TX
Calibration?

I have a KX2 with the internal tuner and the KXIO2 clock module which I
purchased used and it is long out of warranty. The clock gains a nearly
minute per day in spite of having performed the calibration/adjustment.

Hi Gang,
I've got a macro string that sets the K3 to LINE IN, compression to 0, and
monitor level to 2.I expected that once LINE IN was selected, then

But it doesn't.I've searched the K3 Programmers Reference but I seem to

Confusing?
