Previously I had posted a question about my cursor overlapping the center frequency when I expected it (LSB) to be aligned so that the right edge was on the center frequency.
Now, I reproduced it and I am going to guess at what happened. I was playing with the MKR functions, MKRA and MKRB. I established MKRB and then moved the marker frequency up a few KHz then I pushed the Select dial so as to move VFO B of my K3 to that frequency. This all worked just like it is supposed to work. Then, I removed the MKRB line and little Magenta cursor stayed on that position of the screen. I am not sure if this was normal or not. The mode for VFO B was CW with a narrow filter so the magenta cursor was likewise narrow. Then, I tried to get rid of that cursor but nothing seemed to work (or, at least I don't think anything happened). I went to the K3 to reset my VFO B for a CW traffic net frequency for a little later this evening and then when I switched back to VFO A using my K3 A-B button I noticed on the P3 that the VFO A cursor was no longer aligned with the center frequency. Instead, it overlapped about 10 percent of its total width or I am guessing approximately the same width as the previous VFO B magenta cursor which now no longer appears on the screen. My guess, unless something else is happening, that when the software computes the display position for the cursors that it might have messed up by the width of Cursor B in the arithmetic and thus result in cursor A being offset. By power-off and power-on cycle, Cursor A is now aligned with the right edge on the center frequency as it is supposed to be. Can anyone make sense of what I am describing. I admit I am making a wild guess on the calculation of the position of the cursors as I have done that kind of thing before myself. phil ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
