Howdy K3' people: I asked this one before. Apparently I never resolved it and I vcan't make it quit. So am asking again.
Every time I power on the K3, I see the error 'ERR AT3'. 1. There is always power on the KAT500 before the K3 power is on 2. If I 'Tap' the "ATU TUNE" button the VFO-B line is "BYPASS" 3. Tap 'TUNE' button on KAT500 and some very brief clattering then KAT500 'AUTO' remains green-flashing endlessly until tapped again. This takes me to another question: When I actually do try to tune a frequency, I would like to press the "Dash" paddle on the Vibroplex in the old "Semi" mode where a hold on the Dash-Paddle produces an endless dash until the Opr lets up on the paddle ... however the Dot paddle produces endless dots .... my original Vibroplex, which I still have, was this way as there were no "Keyers" then. If that's not possible, then how do you hold-the-key-down to adjust for SWR? Tapping the old space-paddle very gingerly was my best way of ever-so-briefly seeing if anything was going to blow-up when I go key-down. Reaction time to push a radio "Key" or "XMIT" button is far, far, to slow to avoid major mishap .. sometimes anyway. tnx -- 73 es DX de KD7YZ Bob ______________________________________________________________ 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
