Re: No power out solved
Bill,
I searched the Palstar website and don't find this band data cable.? Where did you get yours from?
I have a FT-991A and LA-1K and this would be nice to have.

Did you find the power problem?
This same issue has occurred with my Palstar LA-1K (which was working perfectly).

Have you brought Kent's insights /g/la1k/message/1467 about the LA-1K power supply to Mr. Mark Ward's attention at Palstar?

Re: NEW LA-1K OWNER
Thanks to being licensed we know:
P = U * I
so
120V * 15A = 1,800W
240V * 10A = 2,400W
We remember that legal limit is 1,500W, although the LA-1K should only be run up to 1,000W.
