[Elecraft] Hello?
Where’s the 40-meter SSB net today? Do I have the time wrong? 3pm EST Sunday at 7280? Where can I get a schedule of all the SSB nets? Tried the website and Google —— nothing. Cheers!

Re: [Elecraft] Hello and a question
Elecraft does post information on new versions of the firmware, although it isn't 100% of the time. Ditto with hardware upgrades. I just fire up my K3 utility program and ask it to download new firmware from Elecraft as a way of ensuring I have the latest and greatest. Another way to learn about major changes is to watch the chatter on the list. People will be describing how well they think the upgrade works. 73 Bill AE6JV On 3/14/15 at 3:34 PM, iwest...@bigpond.net.au (Ian Westerland) wrote: Does Elecraft send product updates to the list when they become available? --- Bill Frantz| Re: Computer reliability, performance, and security: 408-356-8506 | The guy who *is* wearing a parachute is *not* the www.pwpconsult.com | first to reach the ground. - Terence Kelly __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Re: [Elecraft] Hello from K3 Owner
I must agree the State QSO Parties and the NAQP are the way to go IMHO for WAS. But some use the spoon fed nets like the 3905 they are on every band now to do so even the WARC bands. I feel about the same way about the DX Nets where they help each other to complete the calls or signal reports where they continue for up to 5 min till finally the DX contact gets all the info on the caller (with help). There are 2 bands that they aren't on though and those are the 2 bands I'm working on WAS on 160m SSB (using only the 160m contest) need 9 now and 6m still need a whole bunch there 8). The more you work for an Award of any kind the more it means to YOU at least it does to me. I'm getting close to 5BDXCC and that is a goal at my age and health conditions anything more is gravy. 73, Fred/N0AZZ K3 Ser #'s 6730/5299--KX3 # 2573--K2/100--KAT100 P3/SVGA--KPA500--KAT500--W2 -Original Message- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Bill Coleman Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2013 2:15 PM To: Doug Ellmore Sr. Cc: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Hello from K3 Owner On Apr 10, 2013, at 1:45 PM, Doug Ellmore Sr. d...@ellmore.net wrote: I am looking for help to get WAS completed.

[Elecraft] Hello from K3 Owner
In January 2013, I started my return to the hobby (and contesting sport) of amateur radio focused on QRP. With the help of some friends, I moved quickly. In March 2013, I aquired K3 #7232. I sold my ICOM 706MKII and a triathlon bike to get the rig. The K3 arrived in time for WPX SSB and I made close to 200 contacts in less than 19 hrs. I worked 45 countries. WOW! I've been really amazed how well 5 watts does with my OCF Dipoles. I am working DX and getting 55-59 reports consistantly. I have erected an set of Buckmaster OCF dipoles which I have put together with a WX0B Stack Match at my QTH. I have also put up delta loops for 40, 20, and 15m. Check QRZ for the info. I am getting really good results. I had been keeping up on some of my basic opoerating skills up the last 3 years with my QRP buddies on the NA3DX Field Day Team. From 1996 to 2001, I was mostly SSB LP and HP. Now, I am working more CW because of the features of the K3 and will likely expand into RTTY and PSK after I get better at CW QSOs. I am amazed with how much CW is going on. It seem significantly more now than prior to 2001. In January/February, I uploaded my prior 1998-2001 contest logs and in LOTW and got 70 countries confirmed imediately. I have chased down WPX 300 and DXCC is in the queue for approval with over 120 confirmed via LOTW and QSLs.I have worked 80+ countries since January, all QRP. I am looking for help to get WAS completed. I am looking for anyone using LOTW from the following states: Hawaii Idaho Louisiana Maine Montana Nevada New Mexico North Dakota Oklahoma South Dakota Tennessee West Virginia I work 6:30 am to 3:00 pm M-F with my day job, then coach HS track until 7pm EDT. Weekends I am more flexible. If you would be interested, send me an email at d...@ellmore.net and we can try to setup a schedule. It would be great to make some K3/KX3 contacts. 73 and GUD DX, Doug / NA1DX P.S. I am looking to sell my ICOM 703 to put towards a KX3. If you know anyone, send them my way.

Re: [Elecraft] Hello from K3 Owner
Doug, The individual QSO Parties are great to pick up contacts with the various states, and also the more rare counties in those states. From your list, the New Mexico QSO Party is this coming Saturday. Three weeks from this weekend is the 7th District QSO Party with your needed states of Idaho, Montana and Nevada being out in force on all bands along with all the rest of the 7th District states. And that same weekend the New England QSO Party will also be running so you will have the chance at many Maine stations. So nearly half your needed states will be out in force and LOOKING for contacts with guys like you within the next 25 days. Go to the web pages for each of those QSO Parties to read the rules for the exchanges, etc. For a look at how we do it for the 7QP, go to http://www.ws7n.net/7QP/new/PicPage.asp?content=2012_7QP and click on the K7EAR tab. Note the K3 radios in the CW Bus photo. Also see http://www.ws7n.net/7QP/new/PicPage.asp?content=7QPFOTOS_2009 73, and good luck with the quest. Congrats on getting back into the hobby.

Easy fix. It just takes discipline. Don't click on anything in an email, even if it says it's a picture of puppy's and butterflies from your daughter/grand-daughter. IT Security types have been saying this for years, but some people think it doesn't apply to them or their anti-virus/anti-malware/anti-phishing software will keep them safe... to click with impunity. All of these programs run on virus/malware definitions you receive from the provider. They are ALWAYS at least 12 hours behind on new virii/exploits, and that's the companies who're paying attention.

Re: [Elecraft] HELLO
Actually, either Google Chrome or Opera is superior to Firefox as a browser. Firefox has not kept up with changing times and performance. On my Mac, the fastest browser is Apple Safari but Chrome comes in as a reasonably close second and then Opera. And, all of these blow the doors off of Firefox. And, obviously there is no IE on my Mac so that is a non-issue. But, at work, corporate policy (which I violate every day) is to use IE and it is incredibly slow despite the fact that I have a very fast PC. Both Chrome and Opera are available on a Windows PC too and they are much better then IE or Firefox. My favorite for my at work computer is Opera. Since we do a lot of HTML5 based web application development, IE is not even in the running as a test platform and we rely on Opera and Chrome. Just go to the site: html5test.com and measure your favorite browser's HTML5 support. Oh, Safari is available on Windows but that is not a good choice. Safari screams on a Mac but it is stuck in the slush on a Windows box. Safari is a web-kit based browser and so is Chrome and I think possibly Opera and just about every other browser on the planet. Firefox is of course based on Mozilla Gecko and IE is based on IE junk.

If you are asking about the KX3 DVR, look at the errata sheet - it is not yet implemented. If you are asking about the K3, then look at the KDVR3 instructions. Many will appreciate it if you put the relevant Elecraft product in the subject line. There are many products and some have setup filters based on that product information. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/9/2012 9:19 AM, Norman Sharples wrote: what is the procedure to use the voice recorder __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

Re: [Elecraft] hello
As a matter of computer safety. I do not open ANY link in an email unless the person sending it includes a reasonable explanation telling me why I should be interested in it. There are too many friends who simply send a link with a note that says something to the effect of you might like this -- that is so close to the spam links that I never open those, no matter how well I know the sender. OK, that is my computer safety rule, you may construct your own, but if you send me a link and do not tell me (in a descriptive way) why I should open it, you can conclude that I did not open it. I believe if everyone followed similar rules, we would have fewer problems with trojans and computer virus. 73, Don W3FPR On 5/5/2011 10:05 PM, Guy Olinger K2AV wrote: This is the stuff that the FBI was warning about today.

Re: [Elecraft] hello
Being prudent, or even a bit paranoid these days, is a good idea. For the few people that I often communicate with via e-mail, if I am not expecting a file or URL from them I will send them a message asking if they really sent one if I get something from them in an e-mail. I also have an older computer (that I would not mind being trashed) that I could use for the download if I didn't want to wait for verification as well as a couple of android systems that probably mildly burp at any attack. Still, backups of critical data (off site if possible) and a good frequently updated virus protection system is a good idea. I've never had any problems on my computers, but have spent considerable time fixing other people systems that have been victims. 73/72 - Mike WA8BXN __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Elecraft] hello
When you see an email like that one that is obviously spam, not only should you never click the link; you should never even open the email itself. An email can contain an imbedded graphic object, reduced in size to the point of invisibility, but containing code that can take advantage of a buffer overflow exploit in unpatched browsers to execute itself. That's the reason that your email client has the don't display graphics setting, which you should keep turned on. Just opening and then discarding a spam message can launch a virus attack against your machine, usually the most insidious kind that installs a rootkit or bot.

I paid $1260US all charges included the chose to use the Core 2 Duo but that's not all bad. This is a stable, cool running, capable processor. The machine now includes 4 G of ram and a much improved video card from the previous version. I use this mostly for work where stability, battery life, portability, and longevity are the most important things to me. I rarely play games. I run office applications, safari, email, ever note, and skype. It all works great. The machine feels substantial in my hands. Pick it up and try to twist it. It is perfectly rigid. My Toshiba feels like the battery would fall out if I twisted a bit more. This one feels well built. I especially like the backlit keyboard. if you want to get one.you can check it out . I hope you have an enjoyable xmas Regards, Lloyd Taylor __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

It provides a dual function ... both level matching and response shaping. The cap is for LF rolloff, not DC blocking (which is not needed). It's not needed for blocking in Yaesu rigs. However, some other manufacturers do not include a blocking capacitor and failing to include one in a DC adder for an electret mic (or FET preamp) can upset the bias of the rig's mic preamp. 73, ...

You'll see that in the Ham Interfacing tutorial that I posted to my website several years ago. The cap is for LF rolloff, not DC blocking (which is not needed). The only trick is finding the small cap needed to fit inside the connector. 73, Jim K9YC __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] hello to all K2/100 owners, advise needed
I recently got my K2 serviced and updated. I was told by the technician that I needed to tighten the mounting screws on Q1 and Q2 after 10 to 12 hours of use. Failure to do so could destroy the transitors. I have read the KPA/100 manual and it says to tighten these mounting screws after initial use. My radio is 6 years old. Do I still have to try and remove the board to tighten these mounting screws periodically when using high power(100 watts). If so needed, can I access these mounting screws easily or do I have to remove the KPA100 PCB? My K2/100 and KAT100 really performs well since it was updated and correction of a problem fixed. I do not work on radios, but I would try and do this maintanence if needed to prolong the life of the transitors.

No, it only has to be done once after initial assembly or whenever the transistors have been removed. If so needed, can I access these mounting screws easily or do I have to remove the KPA100 PCB? You need to take the shield off of the KPA100, but you do not need to remove the board. -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

John: If the thermal pads for the PA transistors were replaced then you DO need to re-tighten the screws after 10 - 12 hours of use. Check with the technician who serviced and updated your K2 to see if they were replaced. 73, Ken K3IU ~~ At 05:19 PM 5/30/2008, John Klokis wrote: I recently got my K2 serviced and updated.

[Elecraft] Hello K1 builders
Hello K1 builders, maybe one of you can help. I am just building a K1-4 and I am in trouble now. The kit passed all the alignment test till receiver alignment. Even using a transceiver on a dummy load I couldn't find a signal. I hear a strong noise but can't find a signal, even with a piece of wire (1m) in the antenna jack. Checking the board, I realized that I have put in and soldered the trimm capacitors the wrong way - everything else seems to be ok. Is this causing the trouble? Any idea what else it might be? Any idea how to resolder the trimm capacitors? Thanks for help in advance! 73 Gernot DL2FN ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
