2008-04-09 Thread Ron Chambers
Buy a Phidget 16/16 board ($100), write a little Visual Basic 6 code, input the K3's band data to the Phidget Board, and bingo, out comes whatever switching logic you need on any or all of the 16 outputs!(slightly oversimplified of course...) Ron N5QQ Message: 39 Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2008

2008-03-23 Thread Ron Chambers
Just completed the K3 #594. After going thru the reflector archives and reading the many HooYah's about AFX and Stereo reception I must have one hiccup: I have tried different headphones - one plugged via 1/4 jack on front and then the other via the 1/8 plug on the back (both stereo plugs). Even
