[Elecraft] KPA1500 feature added to KPA500

[Ken K6MR]

It’s already there, you just have to set the drive levels one time.  When you adjust power, the * in the display tells you that you are adjusting the level when the KPA is in operate mode. If you put the KPA in standby you’ll notice that the * goes away and the K3 will revert to the power level you set with the amp off/in stby.  If you have ‘PWR SET’ to PER BAND it will remember the drive level on each band.  This assumes you have the amp connected to the K3 with the appropriate cable that passes the AuxBus messages.

Subject: [Elecraft] KPA1500 feature added to KPA500



Somewhere reading the information about the new KPA1500 I read that if the
new amp was powered on it would cause the K3/K3S to automatically lower to
drive the amp. Can or will this feature be added to the KPA500? I would be a
welcome addition in my opinion.
