Has anyone connected the TX-500 to a Micro PA50 Amplifier?

 

I see that several of you have connected the Lab599 TX-500 to an MX50 QRP Amp, but has
anyone connected it to the Micro PA50 Amp?? If so can you please share the cable setup
you used?

I have. When my PA500 amplifier was not setup correctly I used the PA50. RF out of the TX-500 into the RF in on the PA50 then hook up your antenna to the PA50. Pretty simple. Use small jumper cable from the TX-500 to the PA50. Start will 1 watt out the radio and increase until you reach the desired output level you want. The PA50 is a nice backup amplifier for me.?

Hop this helps.?

Yes, works great. Info above is good. Start low and increase TX500 output to prevent overloading the PA50. I use a key line but the amp does do RF sensing...
