Hello all, Ran into some issues with the K3 after adding some new boards. Here is the sequence of screens on the radio as I move to get it going again.
Few more experiences - And added some more notes in the first email below. On SSB, it transmits okay, no ERR on screen. When I just send a short message on CW, it transmits, then the next time it shows this series of ERR messages. By pushing any button on the radio, it returns to normal screen, showing VFO A and B (smaller print size), then transmit again, ERR TxF and no output power after that first burst of RF. I have swapped power supplies - same problem. Let me describe the sequence of events and what I see on the screen. Power up: E 020202 (main VFO line) under that: ERR DSE (VFO B info) E 020202 under that "call sign" (VFO B info) scrolling E 020202 under that: ERR DSE Press the A/B button (actually press any button) 14.232.32 under that ERR DS3 Press the A/B button 14.232.32 under that ERR BP2 Press the A/B button 14.232.32 ERR BP3 (pressing the button changes the type of ERR showing? DS3, BP2, BP3, IF2, etc) Press A/B button 14.232.32 ERR IF2 Press A/B button 14.032.00 under that 14.232.32 Transmit on CW (short burst - then nothing - no more TX) 14.032.00 ERR TxF No transmitter power after that first burst of RF. Had some trouble getting the radio to be read by the N1MM program, but eventually got that going. But does not appear to be stable, frequent N1MM message saying to retry connecting the radio, etc. Regards, Mark, K1RX ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
