Re: LA-1K AUTOBAND change issue.
My thoughts exactly Kent. I use the band data line and it has worked

Re: LA-1K AUTOBAND change issue.
Hi Stephan,
Are you using that data cable that goes from your transceiver

Are you plugged into 240 or 120. That will make a difference.
On 120v w/16w driveI get 450w out, 20w drive I get 600w out
