[Elecraft] KPA500 / K3 ?

[Jim Hoge]

I just finished pulling my hair out on this one. I had set my radio up this way a few weeks ago when I added the KPA500 and couldn't for the life of me find the instructions for doing so again. What I needed today was a baby steps version of the instructions. I finally had the oh, yeah, that's how I did it moment. 

That said, the baby steps are:Go to config menu, scroll to pwr set, adjust to per band, then set the pwr level for the radio while the amp is in standby and again when it is in operate mode. Just make sure the power level is turned down before adjusting it in the operate mode. You will have to set the power levels for each band.

 Larry,

Look at the CONFIG: PWR SET menu item on page 58 of the manual, and also 
page 75.  Perhaps that answers your question.
