*Well as nobody responded to my original post which identified a possible issue with my station setup which allowed the P3 to display live TX audio from the K3 I thought I would mention the subsequent test I tried.
1. Check that both BNC connectors were 'seated correctly' 2. Replace the Elecraft supplied BNC inter-connect cable 3. Relocate the P3 from it's position on the desk. None of these appears to have resolved the issue..which does not disappoint me one bit. After all, it IS a desired 'feature' for me. It appears that if the P3 is placed on the left side and on top of the KPA-500 there may be some 'leakage' getting into the P3 and showing up on the P3 display as TX audio. This may be the root cause? Whilst this does not happen on every transmission, and is not deliberately repeatable, it does show up several times a day and I think it's rather cool even if not consistent which would be even nicer. I know many have asked for this to be a standard feature of the P3 and I also note that Alan (N1AL) has stated this is not an easy option and I got the impression it most likely would not be done in the near future...read years? For those of us with not so good hearing when it comes to the voice spectrum, this is a way for us to check on our transmitted signal and not need to wait for a negative comment or intrude on a QSO and inquire if our TX audio is OK. Given the lack of operators who would be either unable to give an accurate description of the audio, or indeed the sometimes abrupt response received and in many cases the other station has tailored his receive audio to best suit his/her hearing, I will take advantage of this anomaly for now and enjoy it. Thanks for the BW.......:-) 73 Gary * -- Gary VK4FD - Motorhome Mobile Elecraft Equipment K3 #679,P3 #1629, KPA-500 #018 KAT-500#??
