Re: [Elecraft] FLDIGI on Raspberry Pi PTT issue with the K2

Hi Jim, I don't think this is a serial port issue any more. Why do I think that? Because you said that fldigi does read the frequency, the mode, and the filter width. You also said that wsjtx, via hamlib, also controls the rig (ptt as well) via the same hardware setup. I assume you can change

Wow! Now I am even more excited than I was before. VY 73, Bill, N5TU Sent from Mail for Windows 10 Message: 16 Date: Wed, 22 Nov 2017 15:27:44 -0800 From: Wayne Burdick To: Elecraft Reflector Cc:

[Elecraft] New KPA1500 feature: ATU TUNE integration with K3 and K3S transceivers

If your KPA1500 is connected to a K3/K3S via the ACC cable, you’ll be able to tune the amplifier’s internal ATU without touching any controls on the transceiver. For a manual tune, all that’s required is to tap the ATU TUNE switch on the amplifier. (Originally, three switch presses were

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] DUAL PB and Diversity

You are so very correct. If you are not using the diversity capability of the K3s, you are really missing out. Leroy AB7CE -Original Message- From: Bill Johnson Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2017 3:57 PM To: g...@ka1j.com ; Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] [K3] DUAL

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] DUAL PB and Diversity

Gary, well stated. The diversity of the K3(S) is amazing. It has eliminated use of all other rigs in my shack except for the occasional KX3/X2 updates when not in portable. Love the mode. I use a vertical and horizontal loop as the two antennas. I use the loop for transmitting. 73, Bill

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Field Ant. for 80/40/30

Hi Frank, I am not giving up on WSPRLite, but after I used EZNEC to look at interactions last night, I will probably have to find a roomier antenna range than my own back yard. I agree that it would be nice to move discussion about WSPRLite to somewhere else. I do sometimes look at the

Re: [Elecraft] FLDIGI on Raspberry Pi PTT issue with the K2

Jim - For what it’s worth……… I run a KX3 with an RPI3. I have FLDIGI and WSJT-X. I use HAMLIB. I’m also using the same Elecraft USB—>Serial cable. It “used” to work quite well - both could receive/transmit/and control the radio. I use VOX to make the radio squeal. Somewhere along the line,

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Field Ant. for 80/40/30

Hi Eric, Don't give up on WSPRlite, with experience you'll learn that its an exceptionally powerful antenna evaluation tool. The "simultaneous spots" comparison tool on DXplorer.net allows you to select the maximum distance for the WSPR reports being evaluated. It also computes the mean

Re: [Elecraft] Digitized IF over IP?

Hello: I have done exactly this using an SDR-IQ as a downconverter to process the IF output from a K2 and then Send the resulting time domain sampled waveforms via a UDP connection from a remote site. I have a highly modified Version of POWERSDR that I use to display the Spectrum of the received

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] DUAL PB and Diversity

Al, Nice read. I agree wholeheartedly with you. I had never used the APF/DUAL PB until Wayne, I believe it was, mentioned it some time back. I'd tried it in the beginning but wasn't skilled using the radio then and it was left by the wayside. I had used Diversity often and with great
