Hi all,
I am having problems with my K2 after moving it from one room to another.
K2/100 into a dummy load
On all bands I get a HiCur notice when I try to tune, when the PA is
disabled (10 watts or less) the SWR shows 1:1 OK
On all bands with the PA enabled (over 10 watts) I get the HiCur notice
and the SWR indicates a fluctuating range from 3:1 to 9.9 to one
depending on band and power setting.
In all instances the power out indication is markedly lower than the
setting. At 10 watts set, I show 4 watts, at 90 watts set I show 7 watts.
I have misplaced my analog wattmeter during the moving process but my
LDG autotuner shows that output is actually near or above my settings.
Not a good diagnostic tool I know.
I think something has definitely gone awry, any ideas on where to start?
Thanks,
Allen, W1SBY
