[Elecraft] K60XV - ADR

2005-05-10 Thread edfinn1
after reading the description i am still confused. can this value be programmed 
such that the output of J2(3,4,5) can be:

band binary out
-
trn1  000
trn2  001
trn3  010
trn4  011

i already have a band decoder looking for these encoded values.

tnx,
Ed wa3drc

[Elecraft] k60xv - second opinion needed

2005-05-09 Thread edfinn1
All,

I am about to bring up my k60xv, mainly for the purpose of transverter 
interface. 

i just uninstalled a downeast xverter interface from my k2. i saw that i had a 
small jumper installed near j13 between two holes labelled 8T and X. i removed 
this jumper for use with the k60xv. 

i don't recall why it was jumpered, but assume it should not be there when 
using the k60xv board.

confirm/deny?

tnx,
ed wa3drc

[Elecraft] k2 audio power

2004-06-14 Thread edfinn1
All,

I am just returning from a mountaintop weekend running the June QSO party in a 
multi-op environment.  The k2 I supplied for the 222 station worked great, but 
there were several complaints, and I will be attempting to fix these before 
it's next excursion into this environment.

The main complaint from all operators was audio power.  There are 2 stations in 
the truck, and it is noisy with all of the amplifier fans and other local qrm. 
The volume knob on the k2 was never set below 3/4 to full for the entire 
weekend.  When we used a second op for logging and Y'ed the headphones it was 
definitely at full throttle. 

I will at least add an external audio amp, but an internal mod would be good 
because I think it would be usefull even at home.

There were other complaints too, but minor in nature.  Manual PTT for cw being 
one of the other problems.  With all of the external sequencing required for 
transverters and preamps and power amps, it would really be nice if the k2 
would switch to tx when I pounce on the footswitch in cw.

Other than that we pulled out the weak ones!  Also, the agc off function was 
used well to make a couple of meteor contacts on 222.  Lots of nice pings 
overnight.
