Rich,? Thanks for your reply. Originally was using Icom ic-7700 built in meter and observed the swr spike. Subsequently
installed a Array Solutions Power Master meter between radio and amp input. This meter very fast and accurate measurements, verified swr
spikes seen. Some around 5 to 1 swr. Always on cw/rtty/digi, never on ssb.
Talked to Palstar rep, he explained the amp switching process. I won't attempt to relate what was said, hope Paul or Mark would respond here. However
?the radio is seeing something not liked in the amp switching process, again hope Factory folks will jump in here.
With my IC-7700 being a solid 200w final, driving amp at 40 to 45w max, the swr spike probably not a issue. However, want to use the amp with a 100w
Icom Pro 3 as well.
No other issues with the amp, do like the LA-1K.
