Re: [Elecraft] IMD of MOSFETs vs. bipolar

It’s only anecdotal, but I was in a 6M QSO where we both were receiving each other with 20dB+ signals. I adjusted CMP from 0 to 30 and the difference heard by the other station was 6dB. It definitely works. 73, Lou W0FK On Jun 28, 2022, at 11:18 PM, Wayne Burdick wrote: Reducing power while

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 Faulting for High SWR inappropriately

Check the delay setting on your transmitter. You might have a hot switching issue. I think (but check your manual) that unless you’re using the KPA1500 with a K3 or K4 without the 15-pin Elecraft interface cable, you’ll want at least 10ms of delay to avoid that. I had that issue with a K4 and a

Pete, have you tried increasing the transmit delay between your exciter and the amp? If the exciter continues to transmit briefly after the amp’s relay kicks out, you could see an swr spike. 73, Lou W0FK Lou Laderman Sent from my iPad > On Jan 13, 2024, at 10:50 AM, Pete Smith N4ZR wrote: >
