[Elecraft] do I miss something...?

[David Fleming]

Hi Jacques,

Which sensor do you have? The 2W range is not available with the 2KW sensor.

The flashing SWR LED's indicates a SWR Alarm state. This happens when the W2's SWR Alarm is turned on and the SWR is excessively high. You can use the W2 Utility or the W2 Interface software to turn the SWR alarm off. Sending an 'A' command will toggle the alarm on and off. It takes a power cycle to restore the W2 to normal operation once a SWR alarm occurs.

Be sure to use the W2 Utility to load the most current firmware, v 0.94. 

Hope this helps.

73,

David, W4SMT
