Browse FTP Beta Folder
This version of firmware has new features that require the very latest KXPA100 Utility.
•Fix a configuration save bug introduced in 1.26.
•Fix power input computation.
•Tolerate forward and reflected power overshoot for brief periods to support external antenna tuners. Use approximately 10-20 watts of KXPA100 output when tuning.
•When attenuator is acquired because of SWR or high reflected power, release attenuator immediately on next key up if SWR has been reduced to 3:1.
•Use input rather than output power to qualify frequency counter samples
•Adjust input power threshold test and timing to compensate for end-of-tune
•Update band voltage tables for ICOM 703 and Yaesu FT-817
•Reduce power requirement for ATU tune
•Add per-band Antenna configuration (requires a new KXPA Utility for user interface)
•Improved RS232 handling for 3rd party applications. (Ham Radio Deluxe v6.2, PigKnob, etc.)
