[Elecraft] XV50 Transverter

[Don Brown]

Hi

The XV50 can be set up several ways. If you are using a K2 with the 60 meter 
transverter option then the power control on the K2 will control the output 
of the XV50. The XV 50 has a watt meter on the front panel and you can just 
set it for 10 watts out. You could also set the internal gain so the XV50 
will only output a maximum of 10 watts. There are several other ways to do 
what you want with the internal jumper options in the XV50 depending on the 
radio you want to drive the XV50 with and the level of the drive. This can 
be a 1 to 1 mw, 0 to 5 watts or a fixed 5 watt level.

Hi,

I'm looking at the XV50 transverter. I would like to use this
transverter on 6m with an external amplifier that permit only 10W RF
IN maximum. Will it be easy to make sure that the transverter in not
giving more than 10W of drive to the amplifier.... Will the output
power selected with the power knob on the K2 will show the real RF
output on the transverter ?

I'm not too familiar with transverter and how they work...

For your info, my external amplifier if a Tokyo Hy-Power HL-100Bdx.

Thank for your time.
