Thanks for all of your mail regarding yesterday's firmware release.
We've made some changes as a result. The new revisions are available
now (MCU 1.88 and DSP 1.70); see:
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_software.htm
NOTE: You must use K3 Utility rev 1.1.4.1 or later to download the new
firmware. You should only have to click on "Send all new firmware to
K3". If anything appears to not be working, e-mail
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Here's what's changed in today's release:
* CONFIG:XVn PWR menu entry now correctly sets the power range limit
for
the associated transverter band. The PWR control can be used to
reduce this level.
Also, the max limit for each transverter band is now enforced on
band change.
* MIC AND LINE IN GAIN: Resolution improved to make adjustment
easier; higher
settings will be required as a result (e.g. around 20 to 30 if it
had been around 10).
* FM DEVIATION corrected (now 3 kHz). In DSP rev 1.69 it was set too
high.
Eventually it will be adjustable.
* AFX “BIN” mode no longer causes SSB TX distortion or CW RX
distortion.
* CONFIG:TXG VCE menu entry is now working. If your peak power in
voice modes
is too low compared to the PWR knob setting, use a higher TXG VCE
value.
However, if you have an amplifier connected, watch it’s meter for
excessive
voice peaks, and reduce the PWR setting accordingly. (Also see
comments about
SSB POWER CONTROL in previous firmware release.)
See the complete release notes for details of the "monster" firmware
release from yesterday (MCU 1.87 / DSP 1.69).
73,
