I have noticed something strange happening with both of my K3s that I think is a firmware issue. I can reproduce it on both K3s. Currently I am running v2.16 in both but I have tried v2.20 and the problem is still reproducible. NOTE: It is reproducible, but not 100% of the time.
Problem: In CW mode - push COARSE tuning - find a signal - push COARSE again to go back to NORMAL tuning. After doing this the VFO is no longer linear. By that I mean the tone jumps a few HZ as if it is jumping in some predetermined step of HZ. It doesn't jump off the signal but it does jump. FIX: If I then push FINE (don't need to tune the VFO) and immediately go back to NORMAL the VFO tunes normally. Smooth tone changes and the step freq jumps are gone. I can create this on both of my K3s. K3 # 1062 K3 #1193 Config settings: VFO CRS: 10 VFO CTS: 100 VFO FST: 50 Has anyone else seen this? I don't remember it being reported and I would expect it would have. 73, Bruce - N1LN (aka: NC4KW) _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
