[Elecraft] KX3/KXPA100 issue

[Geoff Allsup]

If supply power goes off even momentarily (instead of turning power off on the KX3) that's exactly what happens. Check your supply would be my first suggestion.

The KX3 has (without my doing anything) reset the PA Mode to Off, and the PWR to 5.0.  When this happens, let's say I have power set to 30 watts; the KXPA100 shuts down and to get it back up, I have to go to the KX3, re-enable PA MODE from Off to On, and and reset the PWR level from 5.0 watts to 30 watts.
