Hello!

 

Does anyone else use Android mail to open email digests from this Elecraft
reflector on qth.net?  Perhaps you have a suggestion on how I can read the
digest emails?

 

I get an email digest with attachments for each email.  The attachments have
a ".msg" extension which Android doesn't know how to handle.  In contract,
at my desk, the computer has outlook and can open these attachments and
display the emails with no problem.

 

I am hoping I won't have to log into my email provider just to use their
webmail interface.

 

Thanks!

Re: [Elecraft] K3/0 Forum?

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

While we appreciate the interest in additional forums, we can not watch them all 
and only only infrequently read all the ones on Yahoo. If there end up lists for 
every product we make, it will quickly be impossible for us to participate in 
all of them.


If you have a question on using our products, please place it here first (or at 
least in duplicate to any other forum) as we and our close to 5000 list readers 
are most likely to have a quick answer for you :-)  This list acts as our 
central clearing house for questions and company announcements.

To All,

I know the main advantage of having one central list (this one) is that it is 
monitored by Elecraft, and answers are provided by them, as well as other 
knowledgeable individuals on the forum.

I have moderated the elecraft...@yahoogroups.com  for some time (Waaay before 
having a K3), and fortunately, Elecraft monitors that list as well.

Since there appears to be a need, I have created elecraft_k...@yahoogroups.com 
for anyone who would like to have a separate forum.  I would certainly welcome 
Elecraft to participate, as well as RemoteRig and Remote hams.

I want to make it clear that I do not want to divide this forum, just provide a 
space where those who have a particular interest in Remote operating can gather.

I am currently borrowing a K3/0 in anticipation of one I have on order, and purchased 
RemoteRig when I purchased my K3.  All I can say is that it was indeed fortunate that I 
had someone who has set up a number of remote stations with RemoteRig to guide me through 
the process.  It is not "a walk in the park" for someone who has not done it 
before.  Hopefully this new forum can help.

David from Elecraft did send me a separate communication dated June 2015 (K3 
and K3S Remote System FAQ) on remote operating, and I've found it very helpful.

If anyone cares to join the list, elecraft_k3-0-subscr...@yahoogroups.com should do it, 
but going to http://groups.yahoo.com and searching for Elecraft_K3-0 would be best. It 
will be moderated.  Please place your callsign in the "why you want to join this 
group" for quick approval.

John,

Neither of these really NEED the Accessory line, because both are very 
good at instantaneously detecting transmitted RF and switching bands. 
All it takes is a dit or a tap on the mic.


What both of these units DO need is RCA to RCA cables from K3S to KAT500 
to KPA500 for PTT.


The only "feature" you lose by not using the AUX bus is the ability to 
change bands using the push buttons on the KPA500, a feature I've never 
found useful.

[Elecraft] ACC jack

[j...@kk9a.com]

I am setting up my newly purchased K3S and I have three devices that use
the same ACC jack on the transceiver. I use a Top Ten Band Decoder for
switching antennas and filters, a MicroHAM DigiKeyer II for CW and RTTY
and an Elecraft KAP500/KAT500 linear amplifier and tuner. The Band Decoder
and DigiKeyer II interface well individually with the K3S, I have yet to
try the amplifier ACC cable. How can I run all three devices
simultaneously though the single K3S ACC jack?  Elecraft supplied a Y
adapter with the amplifier cable.  Do I need another Y, is is safe to
connect all of these together with Y's?  Is there a better solution?

[Elecraft] K3: Remote Operating from Assisted Living

[Edward R Cole]

Starting a new topic but it was inspired from the 'K3/0 forum' topic.

I'm still thriving from my Alaskan Ham Home, but know someday 
(hopefully distant) we will be moving to assisted living and I'm just 
musing a bit how I can continue operating.  Most of those 
institutions to not permit ham antennas so I wondered how I could 
continue having a ham station.


Of course a remote station is an obvious solution, but if on meager 
funds (which assisted living will absorb) how to do it?


Our local ham club built a mobile emergency trailer a couple years 
back completely outfitted for multi-stations with dual voltage, 
propane heat, a couple bunks fold-out from one wall.  Basic trailer 
was one of the toy-mover models which got wired, insulated and 
interior wall and ceiling added plus a nice exterior signage.


That gave me an idea that maybe I could build my station into a 
similar trailer all interconnected for remote control using internet 
(maybe wifi).  And the trailer parked long-term with power (or solar 
panels) and an attached crank-up tower either at a storage lot or 
friendly ham (who has room - like a farm or ranch).  Thus all I would 
need is a computer and K3/0 in assisted living.  Might even have a 
separate trailer mounted dish for eme? Ha!


Any thoughts on this - any issues that one would face?

Hi John,

Its OK to daisy chain multiple ACC 'Y' cables. Be sure to check for possible 
conflicts between your other external devices on the lines they may share.

Re: [Elecraft] K3/0 Forum

[James Beitchman]

Eric, 

 

I am pleased to see this topic raised, 

 

I was one of the first users of the K3/0 mini with a long back-ordered unit.
For me the set-up process was lengthy (5 weeks working at two sites 100
miles apart), painful, educational and eventually very successful. I am
delighted to be able to experience excellent multi-mode ham radio from my
Manhattan basement office with my K3/100 more than 100 miles from here!  To
get the system going (every aspect of my current set up is now carefully
documented), required numerous communications with Brandon by e-mail and
phone (he was very patient!) and directly with RemoteRig in Sweden - even
two phone calls.   I can easily identify why this was so difficult.  The
terse manual from Elecraft and the huge document from RemoteRig were written
by and for people who have Internet networking familiarity and experience.
Though I am a technical professional, I had no such experience -
understanding and using DDNS services, SIP, port forwarding, ports in the
DMZ, etc was a new challenge.  The manuals from either provider did not
really help with the fundamentals of Internet networking set-up for a first
time user. 

 

While I fully agree with the respondents who have suggested that a single
source - Elecraft - should provide a single manual that addresses both
RemoteRig and K3/0 set up and operational issues, some way must be found to
address the market/users that do not have familiarity with Internet
networking in general. Maybe there is some already existing primmer that you
could supply with the equipment or the manual could contain a chapter with
the basic networking information. I suspect that such information would
reduce Brandon's e-mail by a huge amount. Your job is not primarily to
educate users on Internet networking, but I think there is a large community
of potential K3/0 owners/users who would benefit from such basic
information; it would rebound to Elecraft's benefit, I'm sure.

 

73 from a happy K3/0 mini to K3/100 user.

Re: [Elecraft] K3/0 Forum?

[George K5KG via Elecraft]

K1KNQ and I have recently set up W1YL with a K3/0-Mini using and 
remotehams.com, and the RCForb software.  In this installation, the 
K3/0-Mini is directly connected to a Windows 7 machine via two virtual 
comm ports.


W1YL is able to connect to any number of remote stations using the 
RCForb software, and has been successful in making a number of CW Qsos 
using W8RJ as the remote stn.  In W1YL's case, she is located in an 
apartment with good broadband service, but no way to put up an outside 
antenna, so the remote set up is a good solution for her.


The only documentation that we had available for doing this installation 
was what we found on remotehams.com.  The K3/0-Mini's manual was of 
limited help.  In W1YL's case, she had never used a K3, and was totally 
unfamiliar with how to operate the K3/0-MIni and its many "tiny and 
confusing" controls.  We provided her with copies of some of the more 
relevant pages from a K3 manual, but what really brought her up speed 
were several training sessions on how to connect to a remote station and 
use the K3/0 and its many controls.


It has been an interesting journey.

73, George, K5KG

The lack of a good manual and no diagram for the K3/0 is

Re: [Elecraft] Windows 10 and LP-Bridge

[Larry Phipps]

LP-Bridge should run fine under W10. We were running LP-Bridge under W10 
at our booth at Dayton along with NaP3 and CW Skimmer. It is true that 
LP-Bridge does not support Unicode, which is mainly an issue with newer 
versions of HRD which now use Unicode. I haven't heard any feedback 
about Unicode incompatibilities from users other than HRD. We have a 
warning at the top of our LP-Bridge web page about HRD / Unicode. I will 
add other programs to the warning if I know what they are. Unicode 
support is on our to do list, but there are other things higher in the 
queue.

it does not do unicode, so is not supported by many of the newer programs,
Shame as it was a nice utility..

Are you trying to say that K-9 is "not a dog" :-)
I use Thunderbird and do not have a Smartphone, so I am behind the times

Mike,

I don't know what email client you are using, but I am using 
Thunderbird, and that email address in Eric's post came through loud and 
clear - It was even underlined and colored in blue.
Bottom line, that is not being done by the Elecraft reflector - it must 
be something in your email client that is causing the addresses to be 
truncated.
OTOH, I notice you are responding through Nabble -  it may be a 
"feature" of Nabble - I receive my Elecraft posts directly from the 
reflector - mailman.qth.net.

Re: [Elecraft] Windows 10 and LP-Bridge

[Tom]

Hi
I think a more accurate description of what is missing in lpbridge is the 
inability to use the DS and IC commands on the k3,kx3 and k3s.
These commands require an 8 bit character set, hence Unicode.
The lack of support for the ic and ds commands prevents decoding of k3 status 
for many functions. In addition, almost all menu items can't be decoded.

Re: [Elecraft] Guidance Please: XG3 Signal Source Sending CW String

[Paul Saffren N6HZ]

Hi Jeff, 

You only need to send the "PF,01,01" one time.  That command is used to set
the programmable function of the PF 1 key.   So if you want to have the PF1
key go back to a sweep function, use PF,01,00;  Also, you can simply set the
WPM one time using the WP,nn; command.   Unfortunately the XG3 hasn't enough
non-volatile memory for another CW memory. 

Kind regards, 

Paul

Re: [Elecraft] K3S + SteppIR DB11 Connections

[KK1W]

Dave,

Are you using USB or the com port for rig control?

If you're using USB search the archives for my post from a few months back.
I'm not in a place where I can easily find it for you, sorry. Essentially
you use the SteppIR cable for the K3 and connect it to the com port dongle
thing you received with your K3s. The Steppir controller has to be set for
38K baud.

If you're using the com port (not USB) I think the Y cable is correct but I
have not done it so it's just a guess. In this case the SteppIR baud rate
should match what you're using for rig control.

Jim/KK1W

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Radio check? (signal generator)

[dw]

I used a simple 4-pin clock-oscillator running at 7.32mhz.
Runs on 5VDC.
Put it in a project box with LM7805 and a 12 inch wire as antenna.
Can't use that as a signal generator for circuit tracing though without
seriously limiting its output.
But it makes for a simple little qrp xmitter.

With nothing attached to K3 ANT1 input, lay the wire next to the K3.
Picked up the signal S9.
Hope you find the issue Jerry.

Re: [Elecraft] K3: Remote Operating from Assisted Living

[George K5KG via Elecraft]

Hello Ed,

Pse see my comments below:

On 10/12/2015 12:32 PM, Edward R Cole wrote:

Starting a new topic but it was inspired from the 'K3/0 forum' topic.

I'm still thriving from my Alaskan Ham Home, but know someday 
(hopefully distant) we will be moving to assisted living and I'm just 
musing a bit how I can continue operating.  Most of those institutions 
to not permit ham antennas so I wondered how I could continue having a 
ham station.
It is not just "assisted living" facilities, but apartments, condos, and 
even home locations with CCR/HOA restrictions.


Of course a remote station is an obvious solution, but if on meager 
funds (which assisted living will absorb) how to do it?
The remote station that we set up for apartment-bound W1YL was done for 
less than $1,000.  The K3/0-Mini was $900, plus expenses for a used 
Windows 7 computer, kbd, mouse, monitor, footswitch, and some of this 
was donated.  She has good broadband service for Internet and TV, so 
this was an existing expense.  If you use the services of 
remotehams.com, there is no cost, other than any donations that you may 
wish to make.  If you use Remote Ham Radio (RHR), the operating costs 
can be significant, and it requires additional hardware.


Our local ham club built a mobile emergency trailer a couple years 
back completely outfitted for multi-stations with dual voltage, 
propane heat, a couple bunks fold-out from one wall.  Basic trailer 
was one of the toy-mover models which got wired, insulated and 
interior wall and ceiling added plus a nice exterior signage.
I had this as a similar solution many years ago in Houston where I had a 
TVI-Irate neighbor.  My friend, W5SJS, had a lumber yard which was fully 
fenced in and contained a large garage containing a Winnebago RV.  We 
eventually built up a 7 tower contest station with multi-op positions in 
the garage along side the RV.  It was wonderful!


That gave me an idea that maybe I could build my station into a 
similar trailer all interconnected for remote control using internet 
(maybe wifi).  And the trailer parked long-term with power (or solar 
panels) and an attached crank-up tower either at a storage lot or 
friendly ham (who has room - like a farm or ranch).  Thus all I would 
need is a computer and K3/0 in assisted living.  Might even have a 
separate trailer mounted dish for eme? Ha!
You could build a station in a trailer, somewhat like what I did in 
Houston.  You could operate from the trailer, as well as remotely from 
your assisted living facility.


Any thoughts on this - any issues that one would face?

[Elecraft] KX3 and PX3 firmware

[Ray W2RS via Elecraft]

I recently MCU 1.25 in my PX3, and agree with others that the fixed  tune 
mode makes the PX3 considerably more helpful.  I also installed  MCU 2.34 in 
the KX3, turned on the New QSK mode, and I must say that I  can't tell the 
difference.  Am I missing something?

[Elecraft] DVR used with contesting software (N1MM)

[Ron W3ZV]

Trying to figure out a problem. I spent this weekend on the PA QSO 
Party. I use the K3 DVR for CQ, MyCall and QSL, TU, QRZ messages, 
activated by N1MM macros. When things slowed down I used repeat CQ. I 
have a serial port activating PTT with canned messages and my footswitch 
for live mic. This is my first outing with this setup. I had previously 
used PTT via CAT control for canned messages.


My problem is that when I activated my foot switch close to the time the 
repeat CQ was scheduled, I was interrupted by the CQ message when I 
began to talk. If the repeat CQ was not imminent, no problem


I don't know if this was a PTT race condition, or a software problem 
with the contest logger.


Any insight would be appreciated.

[Elecraft] K3S Macro issue with AGC SLP

[ae4pb]

I'm trying to set the AGC SLP in a macro. Currently using the K3 utility to
test.

I have Tech MD On

 

Evoking the following line does NOT change the value for AGC SLP

MN017;MP001;SWT14;

 

I've used variations and cannot get the macro to change the setting. 

When I evoke a similar command for AGC TH it works

MN017;MP008;SWT14;

[Elecraft] K3S ERR KEY in VFO-B

[Byron Peebles]

I don't see any instructions in how to acknowledge and clear the ERR KEY 
message from VFO B.


As a result, I'm walking through MENU and CONFIG using K3 Utility macros.

This ERR KEY is happening during power on with no USB no KEY and no P3 
connected, so I'd like to clear the message so I can spin through the 
settings menus faster..


Anyone?

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Macro issue with AGC SLP

[ae4pb]

And just a heads up. Elecraft support considers macros to be "programming".
As a software support engineer I can tell you that statement makes
professional programmers drink to excess.

If you want/need macro support we're asked to email k3supp...@elecraft.com
so the request can be forwarded to their programmer and/or the reflector.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S + SteppIR DB11 Connections

[Mike K2MK]

Hi David,

The SteppIR controller needs to collect serial communication data. This
information is available over the RS232 port or a K3 or the USB port of a
K3S. The ACC port is not used for this purpose. If you are interested in
RS232 communications you'll want to see the SteppIR application notes on
their Y cable. From there you can get your thoughts together and ask further
questions as required. I posted the document on the SteppIR Yahoo group in
the files section.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Macro issue with AGC SLP

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Hi Jerry,

I talked to Howard about this and he wasn't trying to say it was 'programming' 
in the usual software context.  :-) Many of our customers refer to Macro's as 
'programming' the radio, and he was just talking in that context :-)


His request for an email to K3support (which goes immediately to him and several 
other support engineers) is normal since he isn't an expert in all K3 macros and 
sending to k3support helps us understand more exactly what you were trying to 
do, and it gets to all of our support staff -immediately- so the one most 
qualified to help can respond to you (or get back to Howard to help him respond).


73,

Eric

Re: [Elecraft] K3S ERR KEY in VFO-B

[Cady, Fred]

Hi Byron,
>From the soon to be released K3S book:
===
10.2.2  Extraneous Keying Signals
PC applications, such as logging programs, can activate PTT and keying signals 
using the RS232 or USB RTS and DTR signals.  However, initial setup of the 
rig's USB port by the PC may cause pulsed or continuous activation of the 
transmitter.  You often hear this beep – beep – beep on the air. This can 
happen if the computer is turned on after the K3S or if the USB cable is 
connected after turning on the computer and K3S.
Warning
Your K3S can lock up in transmit mode under the following conditions:
1.  CONFIG:PTT-KEY is set to dtr-rtS, which you might have when using a 
logging program to activate PTT or send CW, 
and
2.  You are using the USB port to control the radio, 
and
3.  You turn on the K3S before you turn on the computer, 
or
4.  The radio is not plugged into an active USB port.
The combination of PTT-KEY being dtr-rtS plus an inactive USB port generates 
PTT and keying signals on the DTR and RTS signal lines.  Tap the XMIT switch to 
stop it from transmitting.  You will see ERR PTT or ERR KEY in the VFO B area.  
Enter the DTR-RTS menu and tap  1  to display USB.SAFE  and then turn the K3S 
off and then back on.
There are several steps you can take to prevent this from happening:
1.  If you do not need computer generated keying using DTR and RTS, set 
CONFIG:DTR-KEY to OFF-OFF.
2.  If you do use DTR and RTS keying, enter the DTR-RTS menu and tap  1  to 
display USB.SAFE.  This action sets DTR-RTS to OFF-OFF until the K3S verifies 
that the USB connection is active.  This is described in more detail below.
3.  Use a WinKeyer, such as K1EL’s WKUSB to send CW via the K3S KEY jack so 
that CONFIG:PTT-KEY can be set to OFF-OFF.
USB Safe Mode
"Safe" mode disables PTT or keying transmissions until the K3S receives a 
command via USB, such as a read of the rig's VFO frequency.  To turn on safe 
mode, go into CONFIG:PTT-KEY and tap  1  to select USB.SAFE.  Exit the menu and 
turn the radio off/on. Applications that use PTT-KEY but don't send commands 
will require UNSAFE mode (the default). In this case, be sure to turn the PC on 
before the K3S.
PTT or Keying Transmit Override
You can override transmitting due to a persistent PTT or keying signal applied 
by a PC.  If the K3S transmits unexpectedly, tap the XMIT switch.  This will 
exit transmit mode and show ERR KEY or ERR PTT on VFO B. Once the PTT or keying 
source as been removed, transmit will be re-enabled.  You may have to shut the 
K3S down and wait until the PC boots up.

Re: [Elecraft] DVR used with contesting software (N1MM)

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

Ron, as far as I can tell this happens with manual PTT asserted any time 
during the repeat CQ pause or during transmission.  ESC is the only way 
to interrupt the cycle or an actual canned transmission.  This may not 
be fixable, depending on the specifics of the K3 CAT messaging (i.e. 
does it send a message when PTT is engaged by a footswitch?)

Download the new N1MM Logger+ at

For spots, please use your favorite

My problem is that when I activated my foot switch close to the time

[Elecraft] K3: Remote Operating from Assisted Living

[Dennis]

Ed

Having done this for several ops, the biggest issue I've faced is 
inadequate Internet at the Assisted
Living, Out Patient Care, or Elder care.  In 3 cases where I've been 
involved in setting one of these
up so an op could work a special DXpedition, the Broadband provided for 
the residents did not
have enough bandwidth to support the usage of a Remote Rig unit.  If you 
paid for your own
broadband service in the Assisted Living section, then, of course, you 
should have enough bandwidth
to support this usage, but don't count on the community Internet service 
to be enough to use Remote
Ham Radio.  We did have one other case where the community Internet 
service blocked the ports
we needed, and would not consider opening them for us (and we weren't 
able to find unblocked
ports that we could use).  In all these cases, we were able to use a "4G 
Wifi Hotspot" that gave us
enough bandwidth, but that kind of thing is often missing once you get 
out of the big cities.

Starting a new topic but it was inspired from the 'K3/0 forum' topic. 
I'm still thriving from my Alaskan Ham Home,
but know someday (hopefully distant) we will be moving to assisted 
living and I'm just musing a bit how I can
continue operating. Most of those institutions to not permit ham 
antennas so I wondered how I could continue
having a ham station. Of course a remote station is an obvious solution, 
but if on meager funds (which assisted
living will absorb) how to do it? Our local ham club built a mobile 
emergency trailer a couple years back completely
 outfitted for multi-stations with dual voltage, propane heat, a couple 
bunks fold-out from one wall. Basic trailer
 was one of the toy-mover models which got wired, insulated and 
interior wall and ceiling added plus a nice
 exterior signage. That gave me an idea that maybe I could build my 
station into a similar trailer all interconnected
for remote control using internet (maybe wifi). And the trailer parked 
long-term with power (or solar panels) and
an attached crank-up tower either at a storage lot or friendly ham (who 
has room - like a farm or ranch). Thus all
I would need is a computer and K3/0 in assisted living. Might even have 
a separate trailer mounted dish for eme?

 Ha! Any thoughts on this - any issues that one would face?

I used a simple 4-pin clock-oscillator running at 7.32mhz.
Runs on 5VDC.
Put it in a project box with LM7805 and a 12 inch wire as antenna.
Can't use that as a signal generator for circuit tracing though without
seriously limiting its output.
But it makes for a simple little qrp xmitter.

With nothing attached to K3 ANT1 input, lay the wire next to the K3.
Picked up the signal S9.
Hope you find the issue Jerry.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Macro issue with AGC SLP

[Wayne Burdick]

Jerry,

Some K3S/K3 menu entries don't yet support the MP command (remote parameter 
GET/SET). See Table 5 of the Programmer's Reference.

Since you asked, I'll add MP command support for the AGC SLP menu entry in the 
next firmware release.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Macro issue with AGC SLP

[ae4pb]

Thanks Eric,
  It just hit me wrong. I'm a Systems Analyst ($4 title for a high level
software support engineer), amateur programmer (.net C#, C), and scripter
(MS DOS, DR DOS, Powershell, ASP, VB, Java).
My expectation wasn't for support to be a subject matter expert on macros. I
just had a basic question because I expect the issue is my syntax. 
No worries. I have a working macro that's clumsy and not very efficient. I
found the DN command for that attribute works. I'd much prefer a direct
entry value even if it had to be a hex value 0-F instead of a string of
'DN;'.

Playing with the AGC seems to have fixed the concerns I have with the
receiver sensitivity. At the defaults the rig works very well but was acting
hard of hearing. What I've found is based on the antenna and QTH receive
conditions there are settings on the AGC with the DSP engaged that pull the
signals out VERY WELL. 

As expected the issues I'm experiencing are just learning curve type
opportunities. I'm glad I purchased the K3 book and have the K3S book on
pre-order. It's definitely worth having.

Hi Jerry,

I talked to Howard about this and he wasn't trying to say it was
'programming' 
in the usual software context.  :-) Many of our customers refer to Macro's
as 'programming' the radio, and he was just talking in that context :-)

His request for an email to K3support (which goes immediately to him and
several other support engineers) is normal since he isn't an expert in all
K3 macros and sending to k3support helps us understand more exactly what you
were trying to do, and it gets to all of our support staff -immediately- so
the one most qualified to help can respond to you (or get back to Howard to
help him respond).

73,

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Macro issue with AGC SLP

[ae4pb]

Thanks Wayne, I don't expect to change the settings often, just once during
a contest, and once outside of contesting. Knowing me I'll likely play with
the settings a lot to better understand what they are doing. I'm hearing A
LOT more now that I've started adjusting.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S ERR KEY in VFO-B

[Don Wilhelm]

Byron,

There can be several causes - Fred Cady has given you a list of 
possibilities, but I did not see two in that list.


Do you have a microphone connected that might have a stuck PTT switch?
Do you have anything plugged into the ACC connector?

Unplug *everything* except the antenna and power cord - if the message 
is still present when power is turned on, contact K3support.

As a result, I'm walking through MENU and CONFIG using K3 Utility macros.

This ERR KEY is happening during power on with no USB no KEY and no P3 
connected, so I'd like to clear the message so I can spin through the 
settings menus faster..

Re: [Elecraft] DVR used with contesting software (N1MM)

[Bill Frantz]

I had a very similar experience working in the California QSO 
Party. I don't think the contest logger was part of the problem 
since I had problems with my USB hub and most of the time the 
logger couldn't see the K3.

outing with this setup. I had previously used PTT via CAT 
control for canned messages.


My problem is that when I activated my foot switch close to the 
time the repeat CQ was scheduled, I was interrupted by the CQ 
message when I began to talk. If the repeat CQ was not 
imminent, no problem


I don't know if this was a PTT race condition, or a software problem with the 
contest logger.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Re: [Elecraft] Windows 10 and LP-Bridge

[Don Wilhelm]

I think LP-Bridge will work just fine with most ham applications, but 
currently, it will not work with HRD which uses Unicode.

Larry is working to allow Unicode with LP-Bridge, but it is not there yet.

As I understand it, this is not really a Windows 10 issue, it is an HRD 
issue.  If you use HRD version 5, you will not encounter a problem.

Don,
If all that is required  is a port replicator, I'd suggest com0com.  
It works quite well over Windows 10  with HRD and all the other software 
that I use. It's free from Source Forge and a few other sources.
