Thanks John. It has worked well with my K2 for years and great with my FT-1000MP since 1999. But since day one with the K3 there has been problems with the DX spotting. I asked Scott about it when I built my K3 (#474), he said that it was Elecraft's fault (that the K3 expects the command string in a different format than other radios) and he wasn't going to waste his time trying to figure it out. Others who responded to this post said they got the same answer from Scott and gave up and moved on. The program works fine except for the DX spotting. And, that too, actually works (kinda, eventually). When I click on a DX spot first the MODE changes, which results in a change in received audio (CW to LSB, AM or whatever), then the BAND changes which results in another audible change, and finally, the frequency catches up. This happens in about 1.5 to 2 seconds. The point is, HRD and Logger32, N1MM and others all cause my K3 to quickly and quietly jump to the correct spot. I have upgraded to ACLog 3.2 hoping for a fix but it is no better in this regard. I have double checked the speed, port, parity and stop bit and all is as specified.
Your settings from ACLog would be very much appreciated if you find time. Thanks for your response. 73, Terry, WØFM -----Original Message----- From: John Shadle [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, June 04, 2012 8:39 AM To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] [K3] N3FJP rig control settings? Hi Terry, I have been using N3FJP's AC Log for a while, both with my K2 and now my K3. I haven't had any trouble at all with DX spotting and clicking on a spot to do a frequency change with either rig. I can take a look at my settings if you like. So, basically, clicking on a spot doesn't work? You're getting the wrong mode and even frequency? That's strange... N3FJP recently updated AC Log and it's a much improved program. It's now at version 3.2 (although I have only upgraded to 3.1 so far, myself). If you purchased it in the past, you're entitled to a free upgrade. It might be best to try to post your question to the AC Log list, too. I've found Scott and the rest of the list members invaluable in setting up the software. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/N3FJP_Software_Users/ 73 -john W4PAH Madison, WI ______________________________________________________________ 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
