I am talking to a local on 38 LSB. I am cutting out after about 2-3 seconds of
talking. He says I am fine for about 2-3 seconds, and then just go dead. Not
happening on AM. I switched power mics, with the same result. Also happend on
USB. Then I went and put the radio in the car, and the problem went away. The
local said it's my power supply not having enough juice. But it's 12 amp
constant, 14 amp surge. It's a PyramidPS-14KX. Again, I am running barefoot with
a HR-2510. Is it the power supply? Should I add more caps for filtering?


I need a little more information. Do the radio lights actually dim
when this happens?

No.

I does seem to sound like a power supply issue, but
you should be able to talk farther from the mike (Which allows the
radio to not peak as highly) and if it's a simple supply problem, at
some point the radio will work ok if it isn't putting out full power.

The 2510 should not draw more than about 5 or 6 amps, depending on
whether the radio is totally stock, or whether the ALC has been
cranked open (Which will allow a 45 to 50 watts peak SSB output).

I have not modded this radio. I am waiting on a dummy load. I do have a
question. How high can I DK it and how how can I turn up the ALC, without
overdriving the final?
