Re: [Elecraft] [K3] High SWR when running above 12w on 160,80m

Thanks Bob! The coax jumper is not the root cause - I tried connecting the transceiver directly to amp/antenna (via both ant1/ant2 sockets) and still got the same swr showings. First of all I thought of some amplifier issue as it all starts at power setting at exactly 12.0w (the level when the 10

A bad coax jumper or a loose coax connector can cause problems like this, especially if it is in between the radio and the external SWR meter. Can you try a different coax jumper? Or, can you bypass the external SWR meter and connect the antenna directly to the K3, perhaps ANT 2 instead of ANT 1?

Check CONFIG:TX MON, to see if it is set to NOR or FAST (FAST should have no "distortion", because you hear unprocessed MIC audio, with no delay). This applies to both your own MIC audio and KDVR3 recordings. Check also CONFIG:TX DVR. Is it set to NOR or IND? If IND, there are two different moni

Hi Gentlemen! Recently I got some strange behaviour in my K3/100 #4413, looking for any ideas. When running more than 12 watts on 3.5 and especially 1.8 mhz, the internal meter shows higher SWR values. The higher the power is set - the higher the showings are. Like when the power is 20w - it show
