FW: [Elecraft] KX1 High Current

Sat May 19 09:54:58 EDT 2007

Hi Steve

Yes that 30-80 module was a bit tricky but was nice to have. I have about
69ma on 80 meters in receive but not sure what to advise. There are some
pretty sharp guys on here that may have some ideas but thought I'ld let you
know what readings I had.
I also found the atu was a bit touchier than the K1,K2 but with some
patience it would work great.

Subject: [Elecraft] KX1 High Current

Just completed the 3080 module...more challenging than the KX1 itself.  I am
experiencing higher current on 80 meters than the manual suggests (65 ma)..
I'm seeing 106 ma.  This is with the board on the bench, not in the case.

I've noted at other places in my Elecraft building experience that the
recommended current in the manual has been lower than what is ammended
through discussion and errata's ??  Is 106 ma acceptable?

Receive on 20 and 40 seem fine.

Thanks, Steve
