Re: 120/240V switch?
Ron,
Ok, so rather than using electricity provided by your local power company, you are powering your LA-1K with two (2) of your own generators -- main and backup units to achieve 242VAC and 239VAC,

Re: 120/240V switch?
I run my LA1K on a dedicated 240V circuit, and the voltage reading on the outlet is 242 Volts on Mains, and 239V when on backup generator.

Re: 120/240V switch?
Ron,
In saying that you "run the amp from a 240V dedicated circuit" I am sure you have verified its output with a voltmeter.
What's the VAC readout on your voltmeter for your 240V dedicated

Re: 120/240V switch?
Folks, It pays to read the entire thread …
1) in sumary, some units have a switch on the left side of the unit. This
must be switched accordingly to whatever voltage you intend on running. And

Re: 120/240V switch?
I received my amp from Palstar in Sept 2022 and it had a rather large warning flyer in the bag with the power cords (attached).? I didn't miss it and I run the amp from a 240V dedicated circuit.

When was your LA-1K delivered to you brand new?
My LA-1K, purchased brand new directly from Palstar, was delivered to me on January 21, 2023.? My current home station configuration with the

Re: 120/240V switch?
I have the auto switch power supply , but I would guess Palstar should probably placard the power cord and the side of the amplifier to prevent this kind of failure.

Re: Band data config for an Anan 7000 DLE MkII?
I replied, no I didn't. The RF detection worked well enough I left it
alone. I run non-resonant antennas so I have to tune anyway, so I put the
amp in standby, tune with 10-15W and then put the amp

I think we have isolated the problem.? Mark at Palstar just helped me run a number of tests on the LA-1K and he is convinced the linear is not working correctly.? We will ship it back to Palstar

Re: I need help making the cable that connects the Yaesu FT DX-10 to the Palstar LA-1K Amplifier
Did you go into the LA-1K menu and set it to use the data cable? There is a setting for that so if you removed the rca cable and didn't switch it to use the data cable it will not key the amp.

Quick update:
I received the cable from Paul at Palstar and tested the amplifier.? It still does not work.? So now I am thinking it is either the the LA-1K, my new Yaesu FT DX-10, the Palstar HF

Re: I need help making the cable that connects the Yaesu FT DX-10 to the Palstar LA-1K Amplifier
Yep, you’re correct there is no TX IN for the FTDX10.
It’s actually TX Out (Pin 2 - Yellow) to Amp key In (Pin 7 - Yellow) on the
LA-1K.
In other words: FTDX10 output to LA-1K input.
