[Elecraft] APF on RTTY and TrueTTY

Hi! I have tried to solve the problem when using TrueTTY and K3s APF. Everything works fine without APF (using rev data) but if I turn APF on I lose all the tracks on the waterfall. I have tried all mark and shift combination. APF works ok with MMTTY but it is too clumsy program for me so

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-Anything Over 500 Watts

In my case, I piggy-backed my 220 outlets from the Electric Dryer service. Since I don't run the Dryer and the Amp at the same time, no problem. 73, Dick, W1KSZ -Original Message- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Dauer, Edward Sent: Friday, February

[Elecraft] KPA-Anything Over 500 Watts

At the time I bought the KPA500 I looked seriously at a number of higher-power alternatives, including some from Tokyo Hy-Power I think it was called, now QRT. I hired an electrician to assess what I would need by way of AC mains wiring to support an amp safely. The current draw on the

Elecraft already has a KPA1500 - just takes some effort on your part and some Hard part is done . 4 KPA500 factory assembled from same production lot = 4 X 2300 or $9200 5 2 way 1.5 -54 mhz combiners capable 1 KW out (so cheap use both in and out- includes dump loads) - 5 X $60 or $

How many people would it take to put $1000 or $2000 down toward a KPA1500 for Elecraft to produce it? I would, for one. And, I think I'm hearing quite a few people who would be in line for one, even knowing that the amp would be considerably more expensive than the KPA500. It sounds like a lot

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - AFSK anomaly? No replies, try again

Mike, Glad to help and glad it made sense! When you tune across an RTTY signal using your 400 Hz filter with the dual passband filter turned off, first one shift, either Mark or Space depending on the direction you are tuning, will enter the passband of the filter and then both shifts.

While a KPA-1500 or even a KPA-750 would be nice, Elecraft obviously has their reasons for not manufacturing it. Perhaps well designed high power SS amps are just too costly. Acom announced the 1200S last year and I have yet to see one at a US dealer. John KK9A >From Gary vk1zzgary Fri Feb 19

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - AFSK anomaly? No replies, try again

Mike, What I see in your video is that you have the RTTY signal properly tuned at 14,091.883. "Properly tuned" means that you have the Mark energy and the Space properly aligned in the dual passband filter and the data conveyed by the mark and space energy is being decoded and displayed.
