[Elecraft] K3S-P3 Digital Cooperation

2015-10-10 Thread Byron Peebles

I'm hampered with issues using the CBLP3Y with my K3S and P3.
So, my question isn't about "getting it working", but about what 
features I'm missing.


I have the K3S RJ-45 connected to the lower connection on the P3.
Q: How do I test that this connection is "working"?

I have a USB A-B cable between my computer and the K3S.
I have a USB-Serial cable between the computer and the P3.
Q: Is this losing me any functionality at all beyond the loss of one 
additional "port" on the computer?


Right now I'm hoping this configuration loses no functionality of data 
modes between the K3S and P3.
Q: Can someone confirm I'll be able to use all K3S and P3 coordinated 
data mode functions this way?


72, Byron

Re: [Elecraft] K3S-P3 Digital Cooperation

2015-10-10 Thread Don Wilhelm

Byron,

If you are having problems with your CBLP3Y, then connect the P3 to the 
PC using your USB to Serial adapter.

Then connect the P3 to the K3S using the RJ-45 to DE-9 cable (E980297).
Do *not* connect a USB cable to the PC.
In other words connect as shown on page 13 of the P3 manual and more 
specifically as shown on page 19 of the K3S manual.
In the K3S menu, go to the CONFIG:RS232 and set the parameter to 
something other than USB - 38400 is recommended.


Direct the K3 Utility program to the COM port that has been assigned to 
the USB to serial adapter and test communications.
Do the same with P3 Utility.  If both Utility programs can establish 
communications, you should have full function.
The K3 Utility should work whether the P3 is powered or not.  Of course, 
the P3 Utility will only work if the P3 is turned on.


If your CBLP3Y cable is faulty, you should request a replacement from 
Elecraft.


73,
Don W3FPR

[Elecraft] Anyone try the BHI DSP Speaker on the K3

2015-10-10 Thread Michael Aust
Wondering if anyone has tried the BHI DSP Speaker on the K3. Seen many YouTube 
Video's the BHI DSP Speaker and heard the files on theirWebsite, Seems the BHI 
DSP Noise Reductiondoes not have a lot of the hollow sounding digital 
artifacts, especially for SSB. 
The K3 DSP Noise Reduction is ok, but I sayit not the greatest, but I will say 
the Noise Blankeris super on the K3 !

They are on. The Elecraft rigs sound great (of course, I’m a bit biased)…
I worked them on 21285 SSB a short time ago. They are presently very readable 
here in Northern California.
Propagation conditions are much better today than yesterday with much lower QRN 
caused by solar
conditions (geomagnetic storming).

Keep trying. They are weak but workable. The K6TU propagation charts accessible 
from the TX3X web site
are definitely a help. Stu has done a great job with his propagation site, 
worth checking out.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S-P3 Digital Cooperation

2015-10-10 Thread Matt Zilmer
The CBLP3Y is connected to the K3S at one end (RJ45).  At the other
end, both DE9 connectors engage the P3 (one male, one female)

This is all documented in the K3S owner's manual.  As of the A1 rev,
the diagram showing the K3S  /  P3 interconnect  is on p18 of that
manual.

Re: [Elecraft] KSYN3 Cheap

2015-10-10 Thread Hisashi T Fujinaka

For me the question wasn't about resale value, it was about whether it
was easier to listen to the radio with the new KSYN3A. I think it is,
though I've never done side-by-side comparisons (others have).

I'm not planning on reselling mine, at least not soon, and my fun with
the radio is getting on the air once in a while. I know for others it's
about designing antennas, or calculating net worth of the equipment. Who
am I to say that's the wrong way to participate in the hobby? I hardly
ever turn the radio on and it's sitting right next to me right now. It's
just nice to have what I think is the best receiver when I do turn it
on.

On Sat, 10 Oct 2015, Edward R Cole wrote:


I chose to upgrade my K3/10 SN4043.

That involves buying two KSYN3A (I have the subRx) and also got one KBPF3MDKT 
upgrade kit for my main Rx.  Cost with shipping was $468.95.


I suppose I could remove all the options I have installed and try selling my 
plain K3/10 and purchasing a new K3s/10.  I figured that resale value would 
be less than the upgrade cost.


I paid $2,862.57 plus $287.40 for two KFL3B-FM filters.  Realizing I only 
needed one filter and sold the extra.  So one FM filter would cost about 
$150.  Total cost for radio = $3,011.57.


New K3s/10-K base cost = $2,099.95
(2.8 KHz FL = $129.90  (-$10 credit for 2.7 KHz FL)
13-KHz FL = $139.95
400-Hz FL = $139.95
KRX3A-K = $599.95
2.8 KHz FL = $139.95
KTCXO3-1  = $119.95
K3EXREF = $99.95
KBPF3A = $179.95

Total = 3,649.95
ship = $77.02
$3,726.97

Difference = 3,726.97 - $3,011.57 = $715.40

OK say I removed all options and installed them in new K3s:
and say I sold the K3/10 for full new price when I bought it.

2,099.95 + $50 (est) = $2,149.95
1,449.95 (2010 price of K3/10)

This strictly my personal opinion, but I did not
even consider "up-grading" my K3 by purchasing the
newer boards.   Mainly for this very reason.  What
ru gonna do with the old boards?  They have
practically ZERO value.

BUT, a good working K3, even if it doesn't have
the super synth board etc., still has significant
value. Maybe not quite as much as it did B4 the
K3S came out, but I figured I could sell my 23XX
S/N K3, buy a new K3S and come out ahead of
upgrading with a couple new boards and throwing
the old ones in the dumpster.  This way, the "old"
boards have not been converted to junk and a good
K3 is still on the air.  Also, I don't have to
worry if some little known production upgrade
slipped by me since my brandie new K3S has 'em
all.  Stated in different terms, I bought a K3S
and sold my K3 for less of a $$ difference than if
I had purchased the new version boards for my
older K3.

Not trying to start a fight, it's just my opinion.

Re: [Elecraft] TX3X K3/KPA500 DXpedition to Chesterfield Islands onthe air

2015-10-10 Thread KQ8M
Well, unfortunately here in the east, the solar flares have really made it 
difficult to hear them. I do not believe it is operator fault. Just unlucky 
that the sun decide to burp at the beginning and keep the A and K indexes up 
high.

Now this may be a problem. I worked them on 12 CW and the QSO never showed. I 
did not work them on 10 SSB yet it shows a QSO there. So I have worked them 
finally both bands and now 12 CW shows but not 10 CW although they were worked 
40 minutes apart. Oh well, maybe next time.

Propagation conditions are much better today than yesterday with much lower QRN

[Elecraft] TX3X K3/KPA500 DXpedition to Chesterfield Islands onthe air

2015-10-10 Thread Dauer, Edward
Very weak but workable much of the day Saturday in Colorado on 21,023 Khz, 
listening up about 1.3 Khz.  Early in the day there was some really 
annoying intentional QRM.  I came back at 2300 Z and got in after just a 
few minutes.  Signals even better around 0200Z, surprisingly.  The P3/ K3 
gets the credit, as well as the ops on the DXpedition.

[Elecraft] Frequency Not Synced for Diversity Receive

2015-10-10 Thread KY7M
I am setting up diversity receive using the AUX input for my receiving loop.
After holding the SUB button to turn on DIVERSITY, the speaker output is
obviously off between MAIN and SUB by a hundred Hz or more.  I can hear the
same signal on the other speaker most of the time, but the tone is quite
different.  I installed a pair of new synthesizer boards several months ago
and all else seems to be working properly.  Any suggestions?

Re: [Elecraft] Guidance Please: XG3 Signal Source Sending CW String

Thanks Don!

Got some variants that work in several of the macros, including:

   WM,^3[30TEST_TEST_TEST_K8ND_K8ND_K8ND_TEST$10#;PF,01,01;

The underscore meta-character substitution required for space was a
confuser, as was the initial condition when starting.

Jeff,

 

Go back to something more simplistic - just set the XG3 for normal 
signal generator operation.  Do you hear the signal?  If not, check with
XG3 Utility to see what frequency the XG3 is set to produce.


Once that has been verified, try the message - you should hear it at 
that same frequency unless you have something in you coding that is 
changing the frequency.

There is no more, but try with a more simplistic sequence - just the 
text (no power level changes, etc.) and see if that works for you. Once 
you have that working, try adding other things one at a time until you 
have what you want.

Re: [Elecraft] KSYN3 Cheap

2015-10-10 Thread Edward R Cole

I chose to upgrade my K3/10 SN4043.

That involves buying two KSYN3A (I have the subRx) and also got one 
KBPF3MDKT upgrade kit for my main Rx.  Cost with shipping was $468.95.


I suppose I could remove all the options I have installed and try 
selling my plain K3/10 and purchasing a new K3s/10.  I figured that 
resale value would be less than the upgrade cost.


I paid $2,862.57 plus $287.40 for two KFL3B-FM filters.  Realizing I 
only needed one filter and sold the extra.  So one FM filter would 
cost about $150.  Total cost for radio = $3,011.57.


New K3s/10-K base cost = $2,099.95
(2.8 KHz FL = $129.90  (-$10 credit for 2.7 KHz FL)
13-KHz FL = $139.95
400-Hz FL = $139.95
KRX3A-K = $599.95
2.8 KHz FL = $139.95
KTCXO3-1  = $119.95
K3EXREF = $99.95
KBPF3A = $179.95

Total = 3,649.95
ship = $77.02
$3,726.97

Difference = 3,726.97 - $3,011.57 = $715.40

OK say I removed all options and installed them in new K3s:
and say I sold the K3/10 for full new price when I bought it.

2,099.95 + $50 (est) = $2,149.95
1,449.95 (2010 price of K3/10)

$700.00

I spent $468.95 upgrading my K3/10 and saved $231.05 to $246.46 over 
buying a new K3s/10 equipped the same as I currently have. This 
assuming I can get full value for my K3/10 - maybe.  Can I get $231 
more than I originally paid? -doubtful.


Upgrading is definitely cost effective for me - plus I do not have to 
re-program everything, assemble everything,  and add IF output mod to 
KRX3A which I did for my KRX3.


I will give you that the options mix might produce a different 
outcome on resale of your K3.

Re: [Elecraft] [KAT500] PC Data to Amp Control?

See below for a better understanding of how the KPA500 works when set for RADIO

The KPA is designed to either connect directly to the Kenwood radio or with a 
“Y” adapter it can eavesdrop on the computer-radio conversation. When 
eavesdropping, it is the computer (or other controlling device) that determines 
the polling rate. When that devices issues a frequency request the radio 
responds and the KPA500 will receive the data and respond accordingly.

When the KPA is set for RADIO=SERIAL, the SER POLL setting becomes important. 
When OFF, the KPA does exactly as described above - it only listens for data 
from the radio. If you directly connect the KPA to the radio (no Y cable into 
the KPA), then set the SER POLL item to ON. This will cause the KPA to 
periodically poll the radio for frequency. The poll rate is once per second, 
and the KPA issues the following commands for each poll: “FA;FB;FT;”. Again, 
note that this _only_ works when the KPA is allowed to talk to the radio 
directly.

The KPA500 is constantly available for data coming into its serial ports, and 
reacts to that data within 1 millisecond of the receipt of the terminating 
semicolon. If you are seeing it react every five seconds, that means the radio 
is only sending the information every 5 seconds. You should determine why that 
is happening, most likely because the commanding device is only polling with 
that period.

If the DXLabs can send the proper format for the KAT500, then this might work. 
There are very few devices that do send native KAT500 or KPA500 commands, so 
you might want to look at another method unless that device happens to be on 
the short list. I have no info about the DXLabs device, but tend to doubt it 
handles the format. Also realize that the KPA500 will change bands immediately 
on detecting transmitted RF at its input on a band other than the one it last 
used, so this should not be as critical as you might think.

The KAT500 does not listen to the K3’s serial port for its frequency 
information, but rather to the K3’s Auxbus channel. It also does not understand 
the K3 responses, so piping K3 - formatted serial data into the KAT500 (or the 
KPA500 for that matter) will pretty much do nothing.

If no computer is involved in the station setup, it is quite possible that the 
you may want to have the DXLabs device eavesdrop on the KPA-computer 
communications. In either case, also realize that nothing is actually sending 
the BCD data for the KAT500 or KPA500 to respond to. Neither of these devices 
will drive the BCD signals, they only listen to them. That means that both must 
respond to RF data to determine band changes, unless you find some way to tell 
both (independently) the new band. Perhaps the DXLabs box can perform that 
function. It is possible for a KRC-2 to do this function, although I have never 
tried it.

Good luck and 73!

Re: [Elecraft] Guidance Please: XG3 Signal Source Sending CW String

2015-10-10 Thread Don Wilhelm

Jeff,

What band LED is illuminated on the XG3?  That message sequence you 
specified does not set the band, so you will have to set the XG3 output 
manually to whichever band/frequency the XG3 is set for.
It works, I have used similar sequences to send CW to a K3 for hamfest 
demos.

The basic signal generator functions of the XG3 are working, both with and

revision 1.16 installed. I am running it with the XG3 Utility Revision
1.13.6.6, and the utility and the XG3 are communicating. The manual I have
is Revision D1 (Feb 20,2013).

I want to use it with my SDRs and CW Skimmer to test the receivers and
splitters, so I'd like to have it send something like "TEST TEST TEST K8ND
K8ND K8ND TEST" on demand on a selected band/frequency. For test, I had
selected 10.120 as my test frequency, and connected the output of the XG3 to
my K3 antenna jack. I set the K3 to 10.120 MHz.

Page 13 of the D1 and D2 manuals provides examples of programming the XG3
with the PC utility. For test, I tried to set up the sample beacon that is
the first example, as shown below:

  Use the XG3 Utility's Command Tester (far right tab) to enter these
commands:

  WM,^0de_w1aw:10^1:10^2:10*$60#;

  Changes the level to 0 dBm, then sends 'de w1aw', sends carrier at 0
dBm for 10 seconds, then

  changes the level to -33 dBm, sends carrier for 10 seconds, changes
level to -73 dBm, sends carrier for 10

  seconds, sends SK, pauses silent for 60 seconds and repeats
indefinitely.



As described above, I typed the string ("WM,^de...) into the XG3 command box
on the 'Command Tester' tab.


I then entered the string to enable the use of the PF1 button to initiate
the message function, as shown below:

  Set up the PF1 key for Morse memory sending:

  PF,01,01; configure PF1 to send Morse memory.

  To play the memory, either hold down the Band+/PF1 key or send S,01;
over the serial port.



When I pressed and held the PF1 key, 1) the '30' LED began to blink; 2) the
level changed on the XG3 from one to another to another as described in the
command documentation above, and 3) continues forever. HOWEVER, there is no
output of CW or carrier to the radio. I watched the P3 display carefully for
any sign of the output keying, but No Joy anywhere near 10.120 MHz. The LEDs
on the XG3 show that the programmed string is at least running, changing the
output levels periodically.

Re: [Elecraft] Frequency Not Synced for Diversity Receive

2015-10-10 Thread d...@lightstream.net
Hello Lee,

Make sure that you have installed the latest production firmware (MCU
5.38)  for your K3. There was an issue related to using dissimilar filters
in the main and sub-receivers, which caused what you are experiencing.
That has been fixed, first in beta firmware a while ago, and now in the
production firmware.

Re: [Elecraft] [KAT500] PC Data to Amp Control?

2015-10-10 Thread Cliff Frescura
Update:

Bottom line is that the sniffer approach works.

Details:
1.  Ideally, the sniffer should *not* be attached to the radio (Kenwood) RS-232 
line, but to the secondary RS-232 line (Configured by DXLabs software).  It 
appears that KPA500 only responds to commands from DXLabs and not the radio (I 
suspect this is because polling is being used by DXLabs and not the Kenwood 
Auto Info command) - yes, I did try a pin 2/3 swap on the sniffer tap point.  
This also has implications when the KPA500 is turned on after frequency changes 
because it will know the current frequency (not fatal since it can RF Sense 
switch anyway).

2. The KPA500 seems to "look for" radio RS-232 data about every 5 seconds 
because that is the lag from the Kenwood changing frequency to the KPA changing 
bands.  A bit too long for me but tolerable.

Next Steps:
1. Move the sniffer to the KAT500 RS-232 line where DXLabs will send data via 
the Secondary COM Port (K3 native format) to the KAT500 when clicking on a spot 
or moving the Kenwood VFO.  Alas, I have the USB cable for the KAT500, so I 
need to get the RS-232 cable.

Or connect the Kenwood’s serial port to the KPA500’s Radio port, then set the 
RADIO = SERIAL in the KPA.
Follow the directions in the KPA manual. This is exactly what that serial port 
is designed to do. Make sure you use the RADIO port, not the PC port for this.

If you connect the serial port from the TS-940 to a computer, just make a Y 
cable to allow the KPA to see the data going from the Radio to the computer. 
And make sure the TX line is not connected to the KPA.

Also note that the KPA will not interpret the data destined for the KAT500. It 
is specifically look for transceiver data on the Radio port, or KPA-specific 
commands on the PC port.

[Elecraft] Guidance Please: XG3 Signal Source Sending CW String

Re: [Elecraft] Guidance Please: XG3 Signal Source Sending CW String

2015-10-10 Thread Don Wilhelm

Jeff,

Go back to something more simplistic - just set the XG3 for normal 
signal generator operation.  Do you hear the signal?  If not, check with 
XG3 Utility to see what frequency the XG3 is set to produce.


Once that has been verified, try the message - you should hear it at 
that same frequency unless you have something in you coding that is 
changing the frequency.


There is no more, but try with a more simplistic sequence - just the 
text (no power level changes, etc.) and see if that works for you. Once 
you have that working, try adding other things one at a time until you 
have what you want.
