Ran into this interesting problem. Encoder or encoder software? K3 2.23/1.88 firmware Don't know about the lastest beta.
While operating the rig, suddenly tuning across a CW note produced jumps in frequency rather than a smooth change. The "speed" used was two digits displayed after the decimal point on the frequency readout. This setting had never resulted in this "pan pipe" effect before. Switch to "fine' and back to two digits after the decimal and the problem goes away. Doing some digging, here is how it can be produced here. 1) While in fine mode, press and hold the "fine" button until one digit appears after the decimal point. Tune across a signal and one hears the pan pipe effect. 2) Now press fine button until two digits appear after the decimal. Tune across a signal and the pan pipe effect is still there. In all cases going to "fine" with 3 decimal places solves this. If one goes directly from the three decimal display directly to the the two decimal display all is always OK. It seems like the 1 to 2 digit decimal change doesn't work properly. de Brian/K3KO -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/K3-Encoder-software-problem--tp833743p833743.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
