Hi gang:
One other question to insure I am not setting myself up for disappointment.
:-)
When you use CAL CUR to set the current limit, is there a limit to how
high one can go without jeopardizing the rig??
My K2 has the KSB2, KDSP2, KNB2, KAT2, KBT2, KIO2 & K160RX
installed.
When I key the rig with it set to 10 watts out, I'm getting about 2.8
amps of draw. I didn't figure that was unusual with all the options on
board. BUT it kept giving me a high current warning when I first key up
and it appeared to be cutting my output back. So, I went into CAL CUR
and raised the current limit to 3.0 amps.
Initial setting per the manual was 2.5 amps.
Just wanted to be sure I wasn't going to burn the house down........
What cha think ??
