Ron,
Check your keying line from the Flex-5000 to the KPA-500. If the PTT line is not connected I would expect to see the problem your experiencing,

Powered up my KPA500 today for the first time today and it was working ok with
my Flex-5000. Got 500 watts out on 40 to a dummy load and everything seemed ok.
Powered the rig and amp off then on and all of a sudden get only 35 watts out
for 35 in. Does not matter what band I Put my rig on as I only get out what I
put in. Don’t see any errors and the amp is in OPER. There are no faults BTW.

Anyone have any thoughts as to why I no longer get any output from the amp?
