Re: [Elecraft] OT: really cool home-brew electronic project

Really nice. As a new maker/owner of a RepRap Mendel 3D printer, and user of Alibre Design (mentioned in the video) for CAD, I can testify to the amazement one feels when achieving 3D output from your own design. Built a model of our home in HO scale; now working on other model railroad

As appears to the custom to the Elecraft family, WA6NHC would like to announce that K3 S/N 5882 has arrived in the world. Delivery was yesterday, labor lasted about 9 hours and the learning curve has been started (but 3 am was TOO early to start that after decades of being a Kenwood only

Re: [Elecraft] OT: K2 Manual cover falling off

Try your local office supply store, like Staples. They have the ability to create spiral-bound manuals. They could probably disassemble your manual, laminate and re-punch the cover, and assemble it again. I had some similar work done and it was surprisingly cheap. 73, Dennis NJ6G On

[Elecraft] [K3] Heil HM-12 microphone

Hello, I'm trying to get a Heil HM-12 microphone to work from the front panel. Even with the Mic gain set to 60, and MIC SEL set to FP.H, I have to shout in order to see any ALC bars. According to the K3 Owner's Manual in the MAIN Menu section describing MIC SEL : ... tap [3] to turn on an

[Elecraft] W2 problems

Hi gang, I have a w2 wattmeter that worked well when it was first built and has been in storage for the last few months. Now, when I apply DC the start up calibration routine runs just fine and the meter is ready to go. However, when I apply RF several LEDs light as expected but within a

[Elecraft] K3 and JT65-HF

I'm a new K3 user and love it. I'm also getting back into ham radio after 20+ years of little activity. So, all the new digital modes are new to me. I'm going to try JT65 and am trying to figure out the connections between my computer and the K3. Is it as simple as a connection from the

Re: [Elecraft] K3 and JT65-HF

Chuck, It is almost that simple. If you have a desktop PC, is that simple, but you connect the K3 line out to the soundcard line-in and the K3 line in to the soundcard line out. The levels should be within the range of adjustment using the K3 controls as well as the soundcard volume cotrols

Re: [Elecraft] W2 problems

Hi, Steve! Obviously the symptoms you are describing are very unusual. The W2 should never shut off by itself. I suggest trying to run the W2 with a different power supply. It kinda sounds like the present power connection is getting overloaded. 73, Brian, W6FVI On 10/18/2011 11:36 AM,
