- Operating in this morning's CWT, and saw a recurrence of strange RFI-like symptoms. After transmitting, RX gain sometimes was severely reduced, but simply moving the K-3's AF gain a little would cau

- Do these symptoms occur with a dummy load? Operating in this morning's CWT, and saw a recurrence of strange RFI-like symptoms. After transmitting, RX gain sometimes was severely reduced, but simply

- Hi Pete, I've not operated an amplifier at the home QTH, but have had similar experience with my K3 even at 5 watts TX power. The temporary reduction in receive gain, resettable by tweaking the AF ga

- Interesting suggestion, Mike - I use a recently-bought Samlex metered supply, and its analog voltmeter does not move visibly when transmitting. Also checked the KPA-1500 supply, and maximum voltage

- Did you get the gold pins on your K3? The early non gold pin versions had various odd behaviors. I doubt pins are it only happens with 1000w. You seemed to have ruled out RFI with the dummy load.

- I'll agree that radiated susceptibility is probably ruled out but conducted EMI is still a possibility. BTW, have you disconnected the suspect CAT5 cable from the radio and tried the test? Pete, I'm
