[Elecraft] XV-144 Duty Cycle

[Michael Walker]

Hello all

For those using an XV144 on MSK144, have you been able to run 100% on a 30
Second Duty cycle?

Or, is that beyond operational specs.  I was attempting a 2M MSK144 QSO
driving it with the Flex 6600 and it started to chatter and then dropped
offline.  I was running somewhere about 16 watts.

Later, it seemed normal, so that does imply an overheat issue.

I am also dealing with it being off frequency by about 1100hz, which I see
isn't adjustable.
