I have taken down my Palomar TX5300A from my attic.
The purpose is to use it now as a PA to my Elecraft K2, BUT
One question remains. MUST you switch on this PA before sending
RF through it . Several users claim you will ruin it
if you simply want to work barefoot, letting the signal pass through it.
I have no use to blast the neigborhood with 1/2 kw when you just want to chat locally.
Anyone with an experience ??
