[1000mp] Malfunction of 1000MP Mk V antennatuner

[Hans Remeeus]

Hello Elan,

With Menu 4-0 you could set the OUTPUT level on 10, 75 or 200 Watts.

Independent from 4-0 you are able to set the TUNE level on 10, 75 or 200
Watts with menu 4-3.

With VR3003, VR3006 and VR3007 on the RF Unit board you are able to adjust
these settings independant from eachother. I did this for the following
purpose:

I use my Mark V as exciter for the Alpha 91b.

I adjusted with VR3007 the 75 Watts down to 25 Watts. Menu 4-0 and 4-3 I set
to 75 Watts.

In combination with the linear amplifier I don't have to be afraid to give
too much input (e.g. 200 Watts).

When I set 4-0 and 4-3 to 10 Watts and use the linear I have an output of
about 400 Watts.

When I set 4-0 and 4-3 to 75 Watts (in my case this is 25 Watts) I have more
output, but still on the safe side.

I never have to be afraid to use too much input and overload the linear.
Never more then 25 Watts input for the 91b. This makes a very clean signal.
With Class-A too! And I don't need the ALC-circuit between the Mark V and
the 91b.

Without the linear I could set 4-0 and 4-3 to 200 Watts again.

This is one of the great features of the 1000MP!
