[Elecraft] K2s

For casual CW, the K2 sounds and performs. Sometimes I daydream about a K2s upgrade kit. Finer tuning, encoder controls, Band memories, all those aftermarket mic, level out, an 1/8 phone jack, modern internal battery. Oh and easily adjustable DSP filtering. A K3 is out of my range, well maybe a

Correct, something has to be plugged into the jack (a mic or soundcard) before the KX2 will let you change those two in particular. Tom, W2YF > On Jun 23, 2016, at 9:49 PM, Michael Walker wrote: > > No mic plugged in as it is a Heil mic. > > However, if I plug in the

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 fw 2.61 Mic Bias / MIC BTN

No mic plugged in as it is a Heil mic. However, if I plug in the Heil mic (mono) which puts it into TX, that allows me to change it. I guess it becomes and chicken & egg thing then. :) 73, Mike va3mw On Thu, Jun 23, 2016 at 9:43 PM, Tom Crayner wrote: > Mike, > > Do you

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 fw 2.61 Mic Bias / MIC BTN

Mike, Do you have a mic plugged in? If not the KX2 is in internal mic mode. Also, make sure you are not in data mode... the KX2 won't let you change some of those settings in data mode. Tom, W2YF > On Jun 23, 2016, at 9:37 PM, Michael Walker wrote: > > All > > On my

All On my KX2, I can't seem to change MIC BIAS or MIC BTN settings. Spinning the VFO knob has no affect. I am on 2.61 firmware DSP 1.46. I can change other settings just fine. Anyone else see this? Mike va3mw __ Elecraft mailing

Re: [Elecraft] PX3 Spike won't go away

Brian, The answer is *bonding* as described by Jim Brown K9YC for minimizing noise, hum and buzz. Connecting everything to a common point may actually make the situation worse (see the K9YC papers). "Grounding" everything will not minimize noise, hum and buzz. Mother earth ground is not a

I hope so too :-) I have asked my assistant band captain to bring a laptop. I was hoping to use this little Stealth computer. It is fanless, encased in a metal shell and is a 12v computer. I stuffed an SSD in it and run N1MM+ and FlDigi. A nice little package for FD, or so I thought :-) I

Re: [Elecraft] PX3 Spike won't go away

Interesting. I see the noise spike even with the PX3 disconnected from the KX3, and neither is connected to a PC. There IS a notebook running about 15 feet away … never occurred to me that this COULD be the source of the noise. I will shut notebook down in a bit and see if the problem

Re: [Elecraft] Help with K3

Roger, It may be that the driver IC for the LEDs has been damaged. There is 5 volts on the LEDs, but the driver IC has to bring the other lead near zero volts to light the LED. If you did not work on an anti-static mat when doing the connector change, that may be the blame. But just the

Re: [Elecraft] KPA100 SWR Bridge Issue

Curt, You do have a wattmeter problem, and likely if you fix that, all will settle down. You can work on the wattmeter problem at low power only - at low power, you do not have to mount the board to the heatsink. Just power the base K2 and do not plug any power into the KPA100 board.
