Re: [Elecraft] VFO B Not Scrolling Through Config Menu

John, Is it only the menu scrolling that is causing problems? In other words, what does work? Does the VFO B frequency change when you rotate the VFO B knob? If not, then you may have a defective VFO B encoder, or it is not plugged in correctly. 73, Don W3FPR On 5/12/2016 8:55 PM, John

[Elecraft] VFO B Not Scrolling Through Config Menu

I’ve finished assembly and am now on to the test and calibration stage. When I hold the menu button, I access Config. However, the VFO B control doesn’t scroll through the menu. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. John Stengrevics WA1EAZ

Re: [Elecraft] K3/K3S: How to adjust SSB receive bandwidth up to 4.0 kHz

I think my problem is with fldigi. I tried using cocoaModem, and it shows audio up to 4.2 KHz when I follow Joe's technique of setting the knobs to SHIFT/WIDTH, the SHIFT to 2.20 and the WIDTH to 4.00. Sorry for the bandwidth. 73 Bill AE6JV On 5/12/16 at 3:28 PM, li...@subich.com (Joe

Re: [Elecraft] K3/K3S: How to adjust SSB receive bandwidth up to 4.0 kHz

I don't know what's going on elsewhere but with FW 5.38 and the KFL3B-FM I regularly get 4 KHz bandwidth (10 - 4000 Hz, or 200 - 4200 Hz) on the waterfall in WSJT-X or an audio spectrum analyzer (e.g., Spectran, Spectrum Lab, etc.) in either SSB (LSB/USB) or DATA (DATA A and AFSK A) modes using

Re: [Elecraft] K3/K3S: How to adjust SSB receive bandwidth up to 4.0 kHz

I was referring to SSB mode, Bill. Not sure if this extends to DATA A mode, yet, but I'll investigate. Wayne N6KR On May 12, 2016, at 1:11 PM, Bill Frantz wrote: > I guess I'm just not getting it. I am in DATA A mode with the 13KHz FM filter > automatically selected.

Re: [Elecraft] KPad and P3

Why can't you turn on the VFO B cursor in the P3 menu and use the K3 VFO B knob to position the VFO B cursor to the signal of interest. Once there a tap of the A/B button will swap VFOs and you will be tuned to that signal that used to be pointed at by VFO B - but it is now the VFO A frequency.

Re: [Elecraft] KPad and P3

I asked Wayne about this a few weeks ago when they announced the K-Pod. He said that it would be a firmware tweak. My guess is that he is being modest with that estimate, but this sounds high on the priority list of features. My guess is it may not be there in the initial release (he may

Re: [Elecraft] KPad and P3

Myself! Having the ability to click to tune to a signal on the P3 without messing with the P3 front panel knob would be an EXCELLENT aid for both DXing (especially if you could do it with VFO B) and S contesting. 73... Randy, W8FN On 5/12/2016 2:36 PM, Bob Novas wrote: I'm really interested

Re: [Elecraft] K3/K3S: How to adjust SSB receive bandwidth up to 4.0 kHz

I guess I'm just not getting it. I am in DATA A mode with the 13KHz FM filter automatically selected. Following Wayne's directions, I put the bandwidth controls into Lo/Hi mode and hold NORM to normalize the passband. I then turn the Hi knob to max (4.00 shows) and the Lo know to minimum (0.00

[Elecraft] KPad and P3

I'm really interested in the KPad, but specifically for use with the P3. The K3/K3S already has a nice knob! I like to use the P3's knob to tune to a signal and then push the P3 knob in to set the K3S receiver to that frequency. Most of the time I can very accurately hit as SSB signal, if I turn

[Elecraft] K3/K3S: How to adjust SSB receive bandwidth up to 4.0 kHz

Hi all, The K3's SSB receive passband can be widened to as much as 4.0 kHz if you have a 6.0 kHz crystal filter. This is useful for ESSB in particular. However, there's a minor problem with the present firmware that requires a workaround (for now). The trick is that you have to have LO/HI CUT

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting FW Upload issue with K3 (happy ending)

I had the same issue with the P3. Built a P3 kit, and during the upgrading of the f/w, a failure occurred during FPGA code load. The 'boot loader' didn't work after that, and I could not initiate a forced recovery. Had to send P3 back to factory, under warranty. The factory reported the

Don, Thanks for the tip. I did a quick eyeball check on the board and sure enough pin 1 of K9 has never been soldered! It's not the first time that I have seen the round solder pad on a board missed like that. This KAT1 is at least third-hand, so it's surprising that neither the original builder

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting FW Upload issue with K3 (happy ending)

This sounds familiar A while ago updated a k3 using my laptop and usb to serial. The RS232 won't fit properly to the K3 so used a linking CAT-5E cable a couple of meters long. The update failed several times, not sure of exact cause, possible x-talk across the tx/rx pairs or unused wires.
