For some strange reason I am having an occasional problem where MMTTY will not unkey the K3 (Hangs). I have to go in and manually click the TX and then TX OFF in MMTTY.
Make sure that MMTTY (or any other software - including contest software that wraps around MMTTY) is not using CAT commands (TX; and RX;) and a port signal (RTS) at the same time. *Disable* the *software commands*. The K3 *and many other radios* appear to have a race condition when both hardware and software PTT commands are used at the same time which occasionally leaves the transmitter "stuck on". 73, ...

Hi: The title should get your attention. I don't want to get into cross posting so hopefully someone has the same setup as me: K3 - MK2R+ - MMTTY For some strange reason I am having an occasional problem where MMTTY will not unkey the K3 (Hangs). I have to go in and manually click the TX and then TX OFF in MMTTY. This is an occasional glitch and I have no idea where to even look for what is causing the problem. However before upgrading to a K3, the system worked flawlessly, but don't want to blame the K3, just hoping someone has had this issue before. Also it is not an SWR or RF in the shack problem, even does it into a Dummy Load, and does it on all bands I am using FSK, I haven't had the time to dive into DATA-A. Any suggestions would be welcome before I start to pull my hair out. 73 De Mike VE3YF http://www.ve3yf.com ______________________________________________________________ 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]
