I haven't looked at the block diagram to see how the Tune LEDs might be tied in but I had this easy diagnostic that sounds like it could be affecting your TUNE LEDS plus give you a fault 17. I found

Hi Don, Another thought... have you noticed whether the Fault 17 occurs when changing bands? If so, here is another note I found in my files from Glenn at Alpha years ago where a misalignment of the

Good to hear you have narrowed it down. With the Alpha87a getting less and less support, it is vital that we owners keep each other up to date with repair issues and share our experiences. It is stil

Speaking of switching speed-- Instead of using a sequencer, my ICOM provides a setting to delay keying the Amp. What is a considered a reasonable delay 10ms, 20ms, 30ms ?? 73 es HNY Jerry NY2KW Brian

Fault 17 could be due to several issues, the fault reporting only shows the last fault and sometimes the actual triggering cause may precede the 17. You will need to hook up the 87A to a PC with hype

Charlie, I don't think it's the wattmeter as the amp can easily handle VSWR to 1.5 and with some tuning up to 2:1. Did you only test into your Yagi. Have you tested this on all bands into a dummy loa

Not sure I understand the problem. If the amp is on STBY then you have to manually place the switch into OPR before keying. If the STBY/OPR switch is not working you can use HB9ZS CAT software, to ch
