Correction to KPXA100 and KX3 problem

[Terry]

I gave some wrong information in my last post about my tuning problem.  The
blinking light is my Power indicator, not my SWR.  The 25 led is blinking
and I have no power output from the KX3 even if the power setting is 100W.

 

Thanks,

 

Terry

This indicates that the KXPA100 has started, but not yet completed an ATU
tuning cycle and would like some RF carrier to complete the tune.

Problem solved, and I don't know why.  I posted a few minutes ago saying the
blinking indicator was the PWR not SWR.  I looked at all my connections,
they were fine.  Pushed in all the connectors and all were tight.  I ran the
utility program for KXPA100 and no faults were found.  I then checked all
connections again, and everything now works.  I am puzzled, but I wanted to
get back to the group so no one else tried to help me now that the problem
is solved.  If someone has had a similar experience, I would like to know
what might have been going on.

Thanks and 73's

Terry, N7TB
