A cough switch sounds like a great idea, but a bit low tech. K3 users
are mostly familiar with the Tx Gate function that blocks audio below a
threshold level to reduce background noise. Would it not be possible to
recognise audio input above a certain pre-settable level and have that

meter it shows output varyng in sympathy with the output level control
and a setting of L 1.00 gives pretty much 1dBm on the LP-100A. Lowest I
can read is around -12dBm and highest about +3dBm before the K3 switches
.
If not, then there is something wrong in the DC power to the amplifier
stages.

Hi,
Well I've been through all of the operational settings. CONFIG : TUN PWR
is set to NOR and I can vary the power with the power control but the
output meter display stays at 0.0 and the VSWR displays only - - . I had
a settings save from about a month ago but uploading that hasn't changed
I’m pressing TUNE. Mode VOX etc shouldn’t matter.

ot in test mode.
You should see the words:
"TX TEST"
or
"TX NORMAL"
It should say "TX NORMAL".

Hi,
My K3 died today, somehow. The radio works fine on receive and appears
to transmit just there is no power indication on my external meter or on
the front panel when pressing TUNE. There is ALC indication but no power
out indication.The only thing I did different was to switch off the

Many thanks, all good now.
It was AFSK A, just got confused as after exiting the menu it says DATA
on the screen.
Of course it was (insert favourite name of some obscure person from
history) law that I found out about NET shortly after posting. I guess I
never needed that in
Not sure where to go with this but hope someone here can advise.
MMTTY is working fine in DATA A (AFSK) receive is no problem and
transmit too provided I use 2125Hz.
I would prefer to use 1275Hz but when switching to transmit MMTTY keeps
jumping to 2125Hz. How to stop that?
Thanks

Hi,
VE2EBK seems to have found a KXV3 easily enough, wonder if there is
another one out there? I could certainly use it and can do PayPal easily
with postage to a US ham address (QRZ.com verified).
Let me know what you have and would need for it.
Also want a KSYN3. Now surely there must be
Just to say, that 7723 is alive and kicking albeit in a bare bones QRP
CW only format for the time being. I bought this as a way to pass a
little time stuck out in the desert and it did the job superbly.
Initial testing went well though I am a little concerned that the 20m
sensitivity is a
