[Elecraft] KX2/KXPA100 SWR

[Joseph Shuman]

First try today of my KX2 with the KXPA100 amplifier.  Everything seemed to work fine.  One issue for today; the lights on the amp indicated a 1:1 SWR while the Radio gave a reading of 19:1.  My assumption is the KX2 does not “read back” the SWR from the amp.  Is this correct?  Is the SWR on the radio an “artifact” of the on-board although bypassed KX2 ATU?

Keeping Watch-
