KX3 + KXPA100 and ACC1
Locked
 
|
KX3 serial 6-thousand something is born. Very impressed. What a tight little machine. Maiden QSO last evening using the KXPA100 @ 110 watts. This is a very efficient combo: under 5 watts easily excites the KXPA100 to it’s max. Here’s my question: the KXPA100 cable takes up the ACC1 and ACC2 slots. I would really like to use one of the software spectrum displays (maybe iSDR for the iPad, or a Mac equivalent). However, they require ACC1 out. Can ACC1 be split somehow for two devices?

The ACC1 port is split out on the KXPA100 itself -- plug your PC into the "PC" side ACC1 port on the KXPA100, and the KXPA100 will forward any KX3 commands to the KX3 (ie. it is basically a "daisy chain" connection topology)

Indeed it is! Thanks for answering a newby.
Now, another question for all of you: is there any complication that typically develops when running the 100 watt KXPA100 into a higher power liner amplifier. In my case, an Ameritron ALS-600S. I am aware of the switching cable phono plug on the KXPA100 that has to connect to the Ameritron external on-off relay. > On Oct 23, 2014, at 10:05 AM, Matt VK2RQ <[hidden email]> wrote: > > The ACC1 port is split out on the KXPA100 itself -- plug your PC into the "PC" side ACC1 port on the KXPA100, and the KXPA100 will forward any KX3 commands to the KX3 (ie. it is basically a "daisy chain" connection topology) > > 73, > Matt VK2RQ > >> On 24 Oct 2014, at 3:38 am, David Ahrendts <[hidden email] <mailto:[hidden email]>> wrote: >> >> KX3 serial 6-thousand something is born.
