Re: [Elecraft] KXV3 Issues - endless frustration
Hi Udo, the mW calibration never worked on my K3 if using the K3 Utility. Don't ask me why! Was the case right from the beginning. But it works trouble-free when doing it the manual way from the radio front panel. Try that as an alternative! It seems to me settling power in the calibration routing just takes longer than the Utility will wait while the front panel procedure does not have that limit as you're in control of it. Concerning the other issue (gain difference) just a few ideas: checks internal preamp settings, check filter setting (do both RX have comparable filter gains set), a.s.o. 73 gl, Olli 'BQA Contest, DX radio projects: http://www.dh8bqa.de Am 19.06.2015 um 22:50 schrieb Udo Langenohl - DK5YA: Just got my KXV3-B as a replacement of the former KXV3-A.

The K3 has a KRX3 and two of the new synthesizers installed so of course the KRX3 needed to be removed to gain access to the KIO3 and KXV3. In removing and reinstalling the KRX3 one of TMP cables between the KREF3 and one of the synthesizers came lose and I failed to notice it. After buttoning up the K3 and enabling the KVX3B, I had no receive and no TX power output. Removing the top of the rig and resetting the bad cable fixed the problem. While I was at it I also reseated all of the TMP cables to/from the KREF3 and both synthesizers. The KXV3B went in without a hitch - no problems with pin length or board height. I inserted the KXV3B pins all the way into J66 then allowed the board to rotate toward the back panel and adjusted its final height as appropriate to align the mounting bushings with the screw holes and the rear (cover) panel. Preamp 2 appears to be somewhat more sensitive than the PR6/KXV3 that was replaced. A quick test with the XG3 and P3 on six meters shows the -108 dBm signal to be approximately 42 dB above the noise floor which would work out to an MDS of better than -150 dBm in a 500 Hz bandwidth. This compares to approximately -133 dBm with Preamp 1 and -126 dBm with the preamp off. Not shabby in the least. 73, ...

[Elecraft] KX3: Daisy chaining Macros
Greetings, I received my foot switch and headset from the mail man a little bit ago and have built the cables and hooked it all to the KX3 and it all works like it should. Now I am working on writing a macro to switch between the MH3 and the headset/foot switch combo. I have written two macros MH3: MG030;CP010;MN082;MP004;MN135;MP016;MN255; HSETFP: MG030;CP013;MN082;MP001;MN255; What I want to do is assign either macro to PF1 and then use that to toggle between the two macros. Looking at the programmers reference I should be able to slip MN110;SWT27; into the MH3 macro before the MN255; to have it load Macro 2 (HSETFP) and MN110;SWT19 into HSETFP to reload the MH3 Macro. Only issue is that this doesn't work... Any help from a macro guru out there? 72, Joshua Gould K8WXA EM89pn KX3 # 7480 NAQCC # 7704 OMISS # 9948 4sqrp # 990 FP # 3579 __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
[Elecraft] [K3] 'Birdies' on 6M when adjusting filters
A few days ago I installed the new KSYN3A modules in my K3 along with the KXV3B modules. I am running FW Rev 5.26. I was at 50.267 running JT65 with no problems and the BW was at 2.8 KHz - the low cut at 0.1 and the high at 2.9. When I adjusted the low end up to 0.3 a 'birdie' all of a sudden appeared toward the low end of the audio pass band along with a corresponding spike on the P3. As I adjust the low cut up, each time the spike jumps further up the audio pass band. As I adjust the cut above 0.8 the spike keeps moving up out of the audio pass band. I can see it moving up the spectrum on the P3. With the VFO at 50.276 and the low cut at 2 KHz the spike appears at about 50.285 as measured on the P3. Not sure if it has anything to do with the new synth modules or the KXV3B. I turned the preamp off but it makes no difference except for the background noise. I tried the same thing on 10 and 12 meters but it does not happen on those bands.

[Elecraft] HFlink scanning and KX3 relays
I may have a dumb question here, but I'll ask it anyway. I'm playing with HFlink which does ALE scanning on a variety of bands. As you might imagine, on some rigs, this is a fairly noisy prospect with relays snapping to select different filters. I noticed that I'm also getting relay noise from my KX3, but I *thought* that filters in the KX3 were diode switched. Am I remembering wrong, or could I have some setting differences between bands or globally set that might be causing relays to become involved in band changes? Nick -- *N6OL* Saying something doesn't make it true. Belief in something doesn't make it real. And if you have to lie to support a position, that position is not worth supporting. __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] 'Birdies' on 6M when adjusting filters
Hi Mike, Virtually all high-level signal sources (like the synth in a superhet receiver) have a few birdies, and it's possible you've found one. Typically they are of the fast-tuning variety, indicating they're related to a high-order harmonic of the VFO frequency. We painstakingly swept all ham bands using the KSYN3A to make sure that the few birdies present were all very low in amplitude, so they'd be masked by band noise. However, it isn't practical to sweep all bands with all filter bandwidths. Fortunately we provided a firmware-based tool for just this occasion: the CONFIG:SIG RMV menu entry. Using this menu entry you can map out most fast-tuning birdies on a per-band, per-mode, per-filter-setting basis. There are instructions for SIG RMV in the K3 owner's manual. We recently improved the instructions when we wrote the K3S owner's manual, so you might want to use those instructions instead. Let me know if this helps. 73, Wayne N6KR On Jun 20, 2015, at 12:23 PM, Michael Eberle mtebe...@mchsi.com wrote: A few days ago I installed the new KSYN3A modules in my K3 along with the KXV3B modules.

[Elecraft] K3 Spot issue
Has anyone notice any issues with the Spot button on the K3. I am running the newest firmware and just received my radio back from Elecraft. When I am on CW and I hear a signal close by I push the spot button and spot shows up on the B area, but the radio does not change frequencies. It just sits there until the spot goes away and the no changes to the frequency or does not zero beat the received signal. Any suggestions or thoughts?

[Elecraft] K3 Reports of intermit bad audio
I just got my radio back from Elecraft. They changed a diode and put the new sync board in it. It was shipped back and tonight was the first time I had a chance to get on the air. I meet every weekend with a few guys on 80 meters. One of the guys has a flex radio that he watches everyones audio. I started to say hello and everyone said my audio was not good. I went in and checked all of my settings and found that my eq setting were not the same. I changed them and was told that I still sounded bad. The flex guy said I had real bad spikes and raspy audio. I checked everything and all connectors and did not find anything. I continued to talk for a while and without touching anything except my heil button to talk all of a sudden the audio went to great audio. Everyone was complementing me on my audio again. After about an hour my audio went from great to bad again. Nothing had been changed. I even switched antennas and it would go from bad to good and just switch when ever it felt like it. I don't know what is going on. I have always had great audio. Help please.
