Good morning all,
I have been having this problem for about the last three weeks. Erratic behavior with my K3; such as when I attempted to turn off the K3, it would remove sound, xmit and the data on the front panel. The panel would stay lit with the amber backlight, but there would be just a blank screen. To reset the radio back to being "all off", I would disconnect the power, wait a respectable 10 seconds and then when I turn it on and all was well until I tried to turn it off again, resulting in the same previous condition. I was on the verge of sending the rig back home to California after the winter contests , when I notice something during yesterdays SSB contest. I was using N1MM software for contesting and I noticed that the radio would behave oddly; such as after a while the VOX became unreliable and the radio would not respond to mouse clicks on the N1MM program. It seems I would have to reset the radio and N1MM every ten minutes or so. So one time, I had both N1MM down and the radio off, and when I started N1MM, it turned on the radio via through a standard RS-232 port (came with the computer board). I have since found out through some testing this morning, that all my K3 problems seem to be related to the presence of the N1MM being on, and when N1MM was shut down - my K3 works as expected. My question is,after this long ramble, before I submit this to the N1MM team, has anyone else experienced this type of behavior in the relationship of N1MM and the K3? Best regards, Jerry, W1IE (BTW I did get a "Sweep" on the contest. I don't think it would have happen if I did not have the K3.) ______________________________________________________________ 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]
