I use and like QSK on my K3 but I'm now looking at detuning my 160 inverted L to avoid reradiation into my beverages when in receiving.
I'm looking at what it will take to do that and it appears that if the 160 inv-L is just deselected by the remote DXE relay box it will just be an ungrounded 1/4 wave which shouldn't present problems on 160. I could implement a sequencer in the shack to do this by interrupting the relay select line that controls the 160 antenna on a per band basis but that leaves the question of what to do about QSK since the relay is specified to operate no sooner that 15mS. That will likely impact the clean CW and be undesireable. I can decode the band info and get the info about whether it is in TX or RX mode and probably inhibit the K3 until the delay has expired. But I'd need to kill QSK on 160 alone to do this. Is there a way to do QSK on a per band basis? 73 jim ab3cv ______________________________________________________________ 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]
