Good Evening,
QSB was slow on both bands. Fairly deep too: S1 to S7 or S2 to S6.
There were a few thunderstorms, none of them very loud. Copy was mostly
good. It was fun digging into the noise.
On 14050.5 kHz at 2200z:
W0CZ - Ken - ND
K6XK - Roy - IA
K0DTJ - Brian - CA

Alan,
Yes, 80M being what it is even at 9PM in the evening here in Michigan.
I'm afraid so.
If anyone would care to start up a west coast net later in the evening,
they are perfectly welcome to.
Note that there are 20M and 40M nets earlier in the day. In particular
the 20M net gets
3784 kHz 9PM ET Sunday (0100Z Monday).
Thanks to the following check ins (w) and relays (rel):
Call State Radio/AmpName
1 N8SBE MIK4D/KPA500 Dave (w),(op)
2 K8NU OHK4D/KPA1500 Carl (w)
3 KC9ZASILTS-590/AL80B
Please join us on 3784 kHz (NOTE THE NEW FREQUENCY), 9PM ET Sunday
(0100Z Monday). Note that the net stays on the same local time, when we
switch back and forth to/from Daylight time, so the UTC time changes,
but not the local time.
Now that we have moved into Daylight time and have longer

Call Elecraft support. Their service techs will likely have seen it before.

I had the same problem about a year ago. It's a problem with the output PIN
diode switch. There will be a burned toroid in the output switch circuit. I
sent mine back for repair. It's been working fine since.Good luck,Glenn WB5TUF

Hello,
My KPA500 developed a PA DISS fault right the start of the VHF
contest operating FT8 on 6m. It is:
* showing this message on all bands. The antenna is fine. (1.2 SWR)
* same fault even when feeding a good dummy load
* I smelt acrid smoke :(
What do you think I should check or
