I have the internal 2 meter transverter. I would like to use it to feed my

However, when setting it up in the K3 I don't see that I can drive a
transverter from a transverter.
Has anyone tried this before? The XV RF setting only
30 Hz so tuning cannot be all
that critical. +/- 5 Hz out of 30 is not that big of a deal.
This has been one of my biggest disappointments with the K3. After
reading all the hype about APF I was hoping for a real improvement.
But does not happen. OTOH, the narrow filters of the K3 are outstand
the usual band noise.
And it may depend on each individual's hearing.
I have always puzzled over why some rave about how great APF is while
for myself, and obviously others, it is of no help at all.

Pete,
I had a similar problemon lower end of 80 meters. Fix for me was to ground
outer jacket of all antenna cables where they enter the house. This eliminated
common mode current coming into the shack on a second coax.
Check your RX antenna cable, which does not go through the RCS-12.

are better off leaving the
KPA1500 in bypass.

The issue with the internal tuner in Peter’s case is SWR will be high enough to
cause necessary power reduction. (Max power will be reduced. )
The HF Auto allows for slightly higher power at same SWR presented to tuner.

Also, is there an easy way to also toggle the amp between operate and standby?
Would be nice to write an app for a Smartphone, either Apple or Android (I
carry both).

Pete,
I am still planning on stopping by after work around 3:30 unless I can get out
earlier.
I’m sure a second set of eyes will help.

The point is under certain conditions it is NOT a low power mode.

Jorge,
With the KPA1500 you do not use the radio internal tuner.
Use the tuner built in the KPA1500.

I use them to toggle between fan speed 0 and fan speed 1.

I can wait until tomorrow. Won’t bother them on Sunday.
The symptom this time is different than last. Last time was amp acting like
tuner not tuned. This time showing excessive input power even though actual
power is fine.
Let’s see what happens.
