K3 F/W 2.46

Barry Simpson

Further to my last posting regarding the TX icon flashing all the time, I have found that it only does that when I have the linear connected and ready to transmit. It does not flash when the linear is switched to standby. It might have always been this way and I have just never noticed before.

Hi Rick

 

The linear is an FL7000 which has a standby/operate switch. When the operate position is selected the TX icon flashes.

 

I have auto band switching wired up together with a TX inhibit connection. I have checked and found that the TX icon only flashes when the TX inhibit connection is switched on to HI. When switched off it doesn’t flash  !!  You learn something every day !!!

How would the K3 know that your linear is switched to standby?
