[Elecraft] K3 Jumps To High Output In Data Mode During Power Knob Rotation

2017-09-03 Thread Bud Governale, W3LL
The K3 mode button is set to DATA and the transmit mode is DATA A. As I adjust the power output (PWR) knob during continuous transmit, the measured output displayed on the Power Master jumps to a high level. As an experiment, If the output is at a steady 40 W for example, when I slowly and

When in Data Mode PSK-D (31 bps) I get SPL N/A when trying to operate split. Both VFO's were on the same frequency but could not get VFO B to go up. What do I need to do to go into split operation in this mode? Today VK0TH was operating on 28,121 MHz and listening 400 Hz up. I just could not

[Elecraft] K3 Audio/RFI Feedback

2010-01-19 Thread Bud Governale, W3LL
I'm experiencing audio/RFI feedback on 80M between the frequencies of 3650 KHz to 3850 KHz using a full-size 80M vertical 100' from the radio. SWR is under 2:1. No difference if I use the built-in ATU. If I key the K3 and tap the mic once it goes into motorboating with full output (100W). The

I've always used FSK D mode. Since updating to 3.57 when I turn on the Sub Receiver the radio goes into AFSK A. How do I stop the SUB from changing FSK D to AFSK A? In the past the radio was always in FSK D and the SUB did not change this. I'm in VFO A and check DATA MD. It says FSK D. Turn

I made a few PSK31 QSO's today sending in DATA-A mode. However, I like the apparent benefit to PSK-D mode where there is no need to watch ALC levels. I use FSK-D for RTTY which works very well with no need to watch audio levels. In PSK-D, I can Key and send PSK. In the monitor I hear what

[Elecraft] K3 FSK Passband Frequency

I'm using FSK-D. To tune in an FSK signal I need to use Shift to shift the signal to the right of the passband display on the K3 (centered over the right side arrow). This then places the signal in the center of the MTTY display. However, received signals are now about 0.55 KHz higher than
