[Elecraft] KPA500 Faulting on high SWR on power rise

[Chris Hallinan]

Hi Wes. Appreciate the feedback.  I'm certainly not impressed by having one
marked HP that is clearly not.  See my earlier post: the surge protector
was my problem all along.  It's arcing at about 300W.

Do you have a suggestion for alternatives?  I live in the lightning capital
of the world ;)  Lightning mitigation is not optional here.
