[Elecraft] P3 SVGA With a Samsung Monitor

[Roy Morris]

It has been said the new Samsung monitor display freezes up in an RF field 
above 500 watts.  Recently I bought a Samsung Series 3 model S22A300B 22" 
(21.5" diagonal) monitor from Costco.  I have tested it with both the 
KPA-500 linear and the Alpha 99 linear into my G5RV antenna (using my 
Palstar AT5K antenna tuner) SWR 1:1.   Running the Alpha at 1500 watts has 
not caused any problems with the monitor.  Neither amp causes a problem at 
all.  My test was on 75 meters.  I have not made this test on any other band 
yet.  I am pleased with this Samsung because it automatically adjusts the 
image to properly fit the screen.  I am using 1920X1080 resolution.  Aspect 
ratio is 16:9.  P3 firmware 1.12.   Roy Morris W4WFB
