[Elecraft] K-Pod

2020-10-13 Thread Bill DeVore

Thanks to all who suggested a solution! Most of the hams on this list could easily work for the engineering or design departments at Elecraft. Sadly I am not one of them. I didn’t realize the mistake I was making when I did a EEinit on my K3S without a current config file. Fortunately Elecraft

[Elecraft] K3S in QRP mode

2020-07-26 Thread Bill DeVore
I recently did a Parameter Initialization on my K3S. I didn’t save the current firmware configuration as I’ve never done any custom programming on the radio. After performing the initialization, a full rotation of the Power knob only goes from 0 to a maximum of 12 w on any band. Prior to the

[Elecraft] K3s audio on the USB cable vs line out audio

2018-08-28 Thread Bill DeVore
I'm trying to mix my K3s sidetone audio with Skypes audio out by using a software mixer called VoiceMeeter. This will eliminate the mic on my Skype camera trying to pickup the audio coming from the K3's speaker and hopefully eliminate most of the audio artifacts. Does it matter where I pick off

I posted the question in the QRZ and eHam forums but only got one response so far. I’m evaluating the latest edition of Win4K3 and I’m not sure I see the advantage of controlling the K Line through software as compared to doing so directly. I want to be fair to the author so what am I missing

I have an Elecraft K3S and a Heil PR10. I recently started getting complaints about my audio and may have inadvertently changed a setting on the radio. With regard to this combination of mic and radio, where should I set the following: Mic Gain Range - Low or High? Mic Bias - On or Off?
