Re: [Elecraft] K3S PTT using DTR/DTS issue

The manual doesn't indicate that you can't have both the USB and RS232 connected at the same time. In fact the manual states that you can connect the RS232 specifically for PTT. The RS232 isn't going to be used for rig control, only PTT. If this is an unacceptable configuration on the K3S then the

Re: [Elecraft] K3S PTT using DTR/DTS issue

What I'm trying to do: 1. USB for audio and serial control. 2. RS232 for PTT keying. Everything is the same power, I'll pull the cover and reconnect everything at lunch and see what I get. -Original Message- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Lyle

Re: [Elecraft] K3 8651 No RF Out or In - new KSYN3A died!

Here is the update on the No RX/NO TX problem with my K3. It was the new KSYN3A Synthesizer as, I suspect, has died. It would not do CAL but gave Error: E 00044 ERR VC4. It was installed the first day of summer and died on the last day of summer! Thanks to all who gave thoughts and

Re: [Elecraft] K3S PTT using DTR/DTS issue

I was making the assumption that the situation in the K3S was similar to what would happen if you tried to connect two RS-232 ports together as would happen if you used a "Y" cable. I know that will not work, and because one driver can be trying to drive a positive voltage on the signal at

Re: [Elecraft] K3S PTT using DTR/DTS issue

No worries Don, I thought it should work as well. I'm just not keen on having to repair/replace the I/O board on a rig I've had 1 week today using the manual and supplied cable. Maybe I'm mistaken and I didn't smell something in the rig. I've been in electronics since 1981 with formal education

Re: [Elecraft] K3S PTT using DTR/DTS issue

That won't work. Nothing will be damaged. The input signal group TO the radio from the outside world (RTS, DTR, serial data) are physically switched as a group between the RS232 buffer chip and the USB<-> serial chip. In USB mode, data to the radio, along with RTS and DTR, will only be

Re: [Elecraft] P3 feature

Thanks Don, and others. I guessed I missed the addition of the feature. I know that a few of us were hoping for this feature a year or so ago and I confess I have not paid much attention to the newest SVGA changes since I don’t have one. Originally, it wasn’t supported. To sum it up then IF

Re: [Elecraft] K3 8651 No RF Out or In - new KSYN3A died!

Ralph, That error message is applicable only to the old synthesizer, indicating the new one has not been detected by the K3 firmware. Customer support will immediately send out a replacement (please contact them to make arrangements). We'd like to get the original back for analysis. 73, Wayne

[Elecraft] K3 tip in ARRL's "Contest Update" for Sep23

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Multi-two environment

We used 2x K3's and one KX3/KXPA100 for last field day. We started to get bleed-in from the K3's into the KX3. Setting IF SHIFT = 8 fixed the issue and no problems from then on out. Due to space/coax constraints, the antennas were probably way closer than they should have been, but other than

Re: [Elecraft] P3 waterfall curser operation

Hi Smith, The P3/SVGA waterfall cursor is incorrectly named, it should read 'waterfall marker" in the release notes. The cursor is not shown in the SVGA waterfall, but if you turn on Marker A or B, they will appear. -Paul -- View this message in context:

I think Ray is not the only one to suggest obtaining used VHF amps. I owned one of the "brown" B1016, which is the older version, and it didn't output 80w anymore but did a good job at about 65w. The preamps in these VHF amps were never low-noise preamps but extra gain did help some of the
