I've added new sample schematics and block diagrams showing how my new Serial Box (S-BOX) could be used effectively with the Elecraft KX3 and KPA500 to provide automatic band changes, with no custom cables required. It also illustrates how the S-BOX supports logger-generated CW keying over the DTR pin of the same serial port that is controlling the KX3 (something built-in to the K3 serial port, but not the KX3 or KX2).
https://bit.ly/S-BOX Scroll down a bit and click on S-BOX Features and Wiring Examples <https://www.kkn.net/~n6tv/S-BOX/Features.html> then click *KX3 Docking Station*. For those using RemoteHams software <https://www.remotehams.com/> with the K3 or K3S, there's a new diagram showing how one of my customers plans to use his new S-BOX to remotely power up and use his K3 with the RCForb client/server software (no RemoteRig box required). It's a complex setup with a P3, FSK keying, a KPA1500 and a Hamation ShackMaster SM-8 antenna controller all working cooperatively through the S-BOX, while being controlled remotely. I've also added new examples showing how to connect the K3/K3S (or any supported radio) to an ACOM or SPE amplifier with automatic band changes. I plan to add one more showing how to connect any supported non-Elecraft radio to a KPA1500 through the S-BOX. If you have a particular configuration where it is not obvious from the current examples and schematics how you would connect things, please send me your requirements (off line), and I'll see what I can come up with. I've also simplified the S-BOX order form <https://goo.gl/forms/xwyUO4b3QZI8NSzI2> a bit. 73, Bob, N6TV ______________________________________________________________ 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]
