I just set up the radio desk with a 2022 LA-1K and HF-Auto both purchased used, pristine. This was 2 months ago.
I connected?to the IC-7300 via the 13pin plug and the PTT RCA connector?on the amp. It wont key up to TX mode, I tried the IC-7300 on RTTY with 30-50W. The?meter sees the?power so does?the tuner.
I then shorted the PTT connector on the amp to ground hoping to hear the click to TX, nothing.
I tried both modes selectable on the screen, nothing.
I tried with the gray button (on the front) both in and out, nothing helped. BTW, I cant?find any mention of that button anywhere. Whats it for?
I wrote a message to Palstar but I figure it will take a week for a reply.?
Looks like a fantastic amplifier?and I cant?wait to start using it. The HF Auto is working fine.
Anyone out there know whats?going on? I hope its my mistake not a defect. The user manual sure needs to be a lot better.
