Re: [Elecraft] Kx3, wsjtx, broadband noise

In any case, doesn't sound like there's any particular Elecraft filtering wizardry I can engage. Given that they've repeatedly slipped K4 dates, now wondering if I should cancel my K4D. Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Scott AD6YT On Sun, Feb 2, 2020, 9:50 PM Tox wrote: > Yeah, all bands.

Yeah, all bands. Then suddenly clears, signals sprout all over the waterfall and are promptly silenced once more. On Sun, Feb 2, 2020, 9:44 PM Tox wrote: > Hm. And as soon as I send that I check, and 15/30m has 15dB of odd surging > over a 1-2Hz cycle. Maybe it really it taking everything out

Re: [Elecraft] Kx3, wsjtx, broadband noise

It is much like what I recall when the hydroponics shop was still in business a couple blocks away. But in that case the source was never on less than 15 min at a shot. Part of what is maddening about current is that duration is completely random, seeing blips during ft8 turnarounds, followed by

Re: [Elecraft] Kx3, wsjtx, broadband noise

Scott, It would appear as though you are receiving noise from somewhere. Your steps have eliminated your house, but your neighbors may be the source. I don't have an easy answer, but I don't think it is in your KX3. To test, does it occur if you connect a dummy load? If not, it is coming

Re: [Elecraft] Kx3, wsjtx, broadband noise

Well, it sounds like it is something outside your QTH. Unless you have some solar charge controllers for off grid power, or some other possible noise maker. Maybe go mobile in the neighborhood when the noise seems to be on for a while. If you have a directional antenna you might be able to get a

Re: [Elecraft] FT8 Driver Issue

Lee, In addition to the MIC Gain and the WSJT POWER slider (misnamed because it is just another audio level control, you also have to deal with the computer soundcard audio level. It should be set for Line Level instead of speaker if that is possible, and that is one of the 3 audio controls

Re: [Elecraft] [KX3] How to set up the KX3 as a Panadapter with almost any transceiver

All resolved below, so please disregard sorry... I feel a bit lazy for not trying a bit harder before my previous post. Of course adding a custom SWT44 cat command to macros and adding the button in layout turned out reasonably simple. I switched to using HRD dde control with HDSDR instead

Re: [Elecraft] FT8 Driver Issue

First cut the output from the computer by 1/3 to 1/2. Now this will allow finer adjustment with the K3 controls. Sent from my iPhone ...nr4c. bill > On Feb 2, 2020, at 7:24 PM, Bob McGraw K4TAX wrote: > > Go into the TX TEST mode and see if the issue still exist. If not, it’s an > RFI

[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report

Good Evening,    Twenty meters had a little noise and mild QRN.  I had to move the net after a loud CQ started up on net frequency.  Guess they could not hear me.  Forty meters lasted longer than normal.  With the extra daylight I was able to work into Southern California. After I closed

Re: [Elecraft] [KX3] How to set up the KX3 as a Panadapter with almost any transceiver

Playing with my v5.24 HRD, it all works well with the KX3 under the K3 profile, apart from activating the ATU which doesnt work with ATU or Tune buttons. Has anyone modified the program cat control to do this if they could share please, thankyou. Adrian, vk4tux -- Sent from:

Re: [Elecraft] FT8 Driver Issue

YES, I am using a KX3.   I use the "bar" on the right and set 20db of attenuation in the audio drive "chain". Mike gain is now set at aprox 40, rather than 3-4 (one step makes a BIG step)... I can set "ALC" correctly. 73, steve WB3LGC On 2/2/20 7:20 PM, AL7CR wrote: An absolutely classic

Re: [Elecraft] FT8 Driver Issue

Go into the TX TEST mode and see if the issue still exist. If not, it’s an RFI issue. If not, back the MIC (Line gain) down to zero and start up watching the ALC scale. The computer level may be overdriving the radio. If so back the PWR slider on WSJT down. Bob, K4TAX Sent from my iPhone

Re: [Elecraft] FT8 Driver Issue

An absolutely classic problem, I am the first to respond I am assuming only because the Super Bowl is on! I call this the "gain chain" problem. It depends a bit on how you are set up but try the following. Go into the menu on the K3S and turn down the LIN OUT value. I have mine set at 2 I

[Elecraft] FT8 Driver Issue

I am running WSJT-X in FT8 mode on my K3S using the onboard sound card and USB cable and VOX for keying. My computer is a Mac running Catalina. The K3S manual recommends setting the drive at 4 or 5 bars to avoid distortion by the ALC.. When I use the audio output slider set the drive level, the

[Elecraft] Kx3, wsjtx, broadband noise

Hoping someone has a suggestion for how I can work around some local QRM. I have a kx3 with filters installed I have wsjtx running. I've recently added a px3 to see if it would help provide insight. I find intermittent broadband noise that desenses my receiver on multiple bands. 1) It appears to

Re: [Elecraft] HDSDR Mirrored spectrum

I had similar issue. i used a 3.5mm to 2.5mm audio cable (each end three segment), from a Yaesu SCU-39 cable kit I was not using which looked perfect for the job. However it turned out the centre segment was not wired, with same results as above. Initially I thought my line-in was possibly not
