25W. It produces full-rated output of 1000W PEP with low input power, typically around 10W. The PA1000 is engineered to provide reliable use in normal amateur radio operation as rated using SSB and CW modes. A rugged, industrial-grade LDMOS RF power MOSFET is used. These devices have inherent high SWR tolerance but must be protected from overdrive and excessive input power.
This results from the inherent timing of ALC and compression circuits in the transceiver. To avoid amplifier damage, keep the EXCITER MAX PWR set to 100W in the PA1000 - unless you are using a low power transceiver or you are quite certain that your transceiver is not showing momentary power overshoot This setting will enable gain settings (from G1 to G4) appropriate for your transceiver.
Features • Nominal output power 1000W PEP – SSB and CW JUMA PA1000 is an ultra lightweight (just 5.5kg / 12 lb) solid state 1kW linear amplifier for HF and 6 meter • All HF bands including WARC bands and 50 MHz bands.

1dB. Always start with G1 which is the lowest gain by monitoring the LED bar power indicator. The gain setting is individual for each band. PA1000 will Proportional fan control adjustment. The fan will run remember the gain settings. Note. EXCITER MAX PWR with the maximum RPM at the selected MOSFET case setting may limit the max gain setting.

Simply push OPER/STBY button to switch between operate and standby state. LED is ON in operate-state. In start-up the default state is STBY. This can be modified in the Service Pages so that PA1000 will recall OPER/STBY state for the next start-up.

3. Connect PTT and band data cable from transceiver. 3. Connect PTT cable from transceiver. See cable You may need one or two cables depending on instructions. In the case of JUMA TRX2 PTT cable is your transceiver. See the cable instructions. In the not needed.
PTT signal is internally pulled up to +5 V with a 4.7 kilo-ohm resistor. Current sinking requirement is 1 mA. The ring terminal is not connected inside PA1000 so you D9 female socket can also use a MONO plug for PTT connector.

Icom band voltage is not supporting 50 MHz and WARC bands but 10 MHz is defined as 0 V. Zero voltage is not a proper level to verify valid band data and thus JUMA PA1000 needs 0.1 V to 1 .0 V for 10 MHz selection.

Service Pages are intended for advanced use, calibration and special settings. If you are not familiar with the service settings do not change anything and exit Service Pages by switching OFF the JUMA PA1000. To enter Service Pages keep the PAGE button pressed about 5 seconds until you see text “Service pages selected”.
Firmware programming JUMA PA1000 firmware is easy to update. The latest firmware is available on the JUMA website www.jumaradio.com. It is a HEX file with a version identification number (e.g. JUMA_PA1000_v102.hex). You can check your current firmware version in your JUMA PA1000 LCD display during start-up.
