[Elecraft] R: Skimmer and the K3S

Skimmer ultra assisted is real radio contesting or is a kind of automation that kill contesting? I think that this is not ham radio but another thing. I like my K3S with P3, I make qso unassisted, and I think THIS  is amateur radio. 73 de IK4EWX. Invio eseguito dallo smartphone BlackBerry 10.

Exactly. This is why the K3S and any conventional radio that comes after it is a Bad Decision for high-end operators. SO2R with one box, skimming everything, using only IP control. Remind me again why I just spent about $6,000 on an outdated design?

Running Router and LP-Bridge should not be a problem at all if Router is properly configured. I ran this setup for a long time. Make sure you're not asking both programs to create or use the same port. Also, make sure both are using the latest major software release from Eltima (LPB and Router

Is it possible that you use the auto-tuner at home, some gremlin at FD pushed the ATU and put it into Bypass or adjusted it for that FD antenna and it no longer plays nice with your antenna at home, with the K3 folding back with things not copaesthetic as they were when you let your baby into

Ah, yes: "Lent the rig for Field Day use". I did that only when I could be there and could watch such things closely. My only loss was a sledgehammer I loaned. It came back "repaired" with duct tape, and totally useless. I've kept it that way and a reminder about the risk of loaning things

I have been having some mostly transmission issues that I suspect might be related to the power supply. The issue is intermittent failure of the K3 to generate full power on transmit. It operated fine for an hour or two at Field Day but suddenly we were QRP on my k3/100. No error messages,

In fact you can run both SKIMMER and the wider range panadapter software off the same sound card. At least is works in WIN7. YMMV with WIN8 and WIN10. I run SKIMMER and ROCKY simultaneously. 73 de Brian/K3KO On 9/4/2016 13:50 PM, Peter W2IRT wrote: From: Tony Estep
