Hi All,
Apologies if this question posts twice - my attempt yesterday was unsuccessful, so here goes again. I've been running KX3 #2511 for several years on SSB with the MH3 mic and with settings: Mic gain 35 and compression 12. It's worked flawlessly and that combination of settings has given me an ALC indication of 5 bars while speaking normally. I'm running the latest firmware. Yesterday, I noted that I had no RF output on SSB and find that now I get no ALC indication until the Mic gain is advanced to the maximum setting of 80. Nothing else has changed in my setup. I've checked that MIC Bias is set to ON and the TX EQ settings have not changed. I've also checked and there is indeed a bias voltage on the Mic socket. I can still run digital modes in DATA mode A, using an external soundcard connected to the KX3 mic socket via an adapter cable and I easily get 4 bars of ALC with the 5th flickering with a Mic gain of 35. That hasn't changed. I don't have another MH3 mic to check whether it's the microphone that's at fault here, but that's my suspicion. Any ideas where to look next? Many thanks, John VK7JB ______________________________________________________________ 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]
