[Elecraft] New DSP features?

Hi all, The K3/K3S and KX2/KX3 are SDRs, by definition, because they provide demodulation and modulation features via a DSP chip that is programmable. Our DSP algorithms already give the user all the usual features expected of an all-mode transceiver, and then some: - DVR - variable

Re: [Elecraft] whats a updated K3 called?

I also added the KIO3B modification to my K3 (2197) in addition to the synthesizer, DVR and TXCO so it operates just like my K3S's. The only difference is on the Keypad 6 which says DUAL PB on the K3 and APF on the K3S that I can see. Ed.. AB4IQ -Original Message- From:

Re: [Elecraft] KAT3A & KIO3B Upgrade for my K3

There is no access to FSK-D using CAT commands other than those supplying ASCII strings. FSK-D can transmit using paddle (not straight key) input, ASCII text, the FSK pin on the ACC connector (with a one transistor keying interface) or from the Terminal screen of K3 Utility. I do not know

Re: [Elecraft] KAT3A & KIO3B Upgrade for my K3

I've attempted to configure MMTTY to run FSK with my K3S. Conclusion is that a Terminal unit will be required. Using AFSK is easy and I don't find any disadvantages. No additional hardware required. Bob, K4TAX Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 10, 2019, at 4:57 PM, Nr4c wrote: > > None

Re: [Elecraft] ERR TXF

Normal for most radios due to carrier frequency and receiver offset for CW. Elecraft is not the only that does it this way. As filters with reduced bandwidth we find that group delay increases. With this CW wave shapes become a difficult task. Wider filters are much easier to generate good

Re: [Elecraft] ERR TXF

John, No mystery - the stock K3/K3S includes the 2.7kHz filter or the 2.8kHz with the upgrade. So CW transmit has to work with that filter - the DSP does the rest. So if you select a CW width filter for CW transmit, you will get the ERR TXF message. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/10/2019 5:52 PM,

Re: [Elecraft] KAT3A & KIO3B Upgrade for my K3

None that I know of. FSK is not normally a CAT control nor is it done with “handshake” signals on standard serial port. It is passed on the TX line of a RS-232 serial connection to a discrete pin on a radio for FSK signaling. My K3 has such a pin on the Acc2 connector on the rear of the radio.

Mark, Use K3 Utility, it is quick and easy. Only enable one filter for for transmit on each mode. You can enable multiple filters for receive on each mode. K3 Utility makes it quick and easy - just check off the applicable boxes and save to the K3/K3S. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/10/2019 5:35

Mark, It is easy to set up the filter enables for each mode - for both transmit and receive using the K3 Utility Configure Filters selection. Save the filter configuration to the K3 and operate. Much easier than trying to set them for each mode in the menu. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/10/2019 2:04

Re: [Elecraft] ERR TXF

This error is caused by selecting a filter other than the 2.8 or 2.7 kHz filter as the transmit filter. Use CONFIG:FLTX to select that filter for CW/DATA/SSB. (Except if you have FM (13 kHz) or AM filters (6 kHz) you must select those filters in the FM and AM modes). 73, Victor, 4X6GP
