I have enjoyed reading the problems of others but now its 'the winter of my
discontent' as they say.
I've successfully built the K2, KSB, 160 converter, DSP and finished the ATU
(needs testing and not connected). I am now finishing the K100
I have got to the end of the test where one fires up with 20W and I've got
HI CUR. I have gone through the tests 3 times now and cannot see any
irregularities. I have looked at R21-22 and T1 and turned R26/R27 slightly clockwise
as advise but still have the problem.
I am feeding into 239 socket and 213 cable through a Kenwood ATU and then
into Bird 500W load. All tests are perfect of the K2.
I noted on my power supply source that when set to 20W the PSU is delivering
about 3 amps. The Kenwood Power Meter is not reading anything much and the
K2 LCD shows 1.0-1.
Although in the production of electronics during my life, I left 'amateur
radio' some 15 years ago when I went deaf. I am now try to pick up the threads
and I cannot remember how those funning things with three legs work !!.
I would really appreciate some help here guys.
