Mmm, interesting. Prompted by other comments, I tested CW-in-SSB band-by-band. Starting at 10m and working systematically down to 160m, the K3 would go into transmit mode but produce no power out on any band. However, after moving 'down' from 160m to 6m, it mysteriously started working again - and now works correctly on every band.
So, it seems that merely by changing bands and hitting the paddle, I have cleared whatever it was that blocked the transmitter in CW-in-SSB. How odd! Frank (or anyone else whose CW-in-SSB doesn't work): perhaps you would try the same thing? It still smells of a firmware bug to me. 73 Gary ZL2iFB > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:elecraft- > [email protected]] On Behalf Of iain macdonnell - N6ML > Sent: Wednesday, 1 February 2012 11:17 a.m. > To: N3XX > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3: CW in SSB mode broken? > > For one thing, it's quite useful on 6m, where DX will often switch back and > forth between CW and SSB on the same frequency). > > 73, > > ~iain / N6ML > > > > On Tue, Jan 31, 2012 at 2:11 PM, N3XX <[email protected]> wrote: > > I must be missing something.
