Re: [Elecraft] Noise cancelling headphones

I've never tried the RS60CF but I can say 
the Bose QC15 are the only headphones I 
choose to use in a long contest. I have a

wearing them for an hour is uncomfortable. 
The QC-15? I wear them day and night

Re: [Elecraft] Noise cancelling headphones

2018-08-02 Thread K9MA
I spent years, lots of effort, and lots of money trying to mitigate 
amplifier fan noise. Many kinds of noise cancelling headphones failed, 
including one aircraft type. I even tried putting an early NC headset 
inside of a pair of earmuff type ear protectors.  I built a cabinet to 
enclose the amplifiers, but IT's fan was noisier than the amplifiers. 
Finally bought a passive Radiosport headset. By far the best, though I 
still think putting the KPA1500 in the other room would be better. As 
soon as the remote software is available.

[Elecraft] Tip for those watching 6 m band openings: channel hopping

2018-08-02 Thread Wayne Burdick
If you're into 6 meter SSB, you may want to take advantage of the 
semi-channelezation that occurs in this band segment. While operators generally 
start at 50.125, they quickly spread up the band in 5 kHz increments when 
there's a lot of activity, like today.

The K3 and K3S can hop among a group of channels (frequency memories) on 6 
meters, either manually (by rotating the VFO) or automatically (by starting a 
scan). The setup procedure is described in the owner's manual.

On my K3S I set up 5 frequency memories: 50.125, .130, .135, .140, and .145. In 
order to use these with channel hopping, they have to be in a group of 
contiguous memories (I used 50-54), and each one in the group has to have a 
label with an asterisk (*) in the first character position. You can set these 
up at the radio itself or using the K3 Frequency Memory Editor.

Once the memories are set up, you can start channel-hop scanning as follows:

1. Do M->V (memory recall), selecting memory #50 with VFO, then tap M->V again. 
VFO A will can now be used to do manual hopping among the channels.

2. Hold SCAN to start scanning among the 5 channels. The receiver will stay 
muted during the scan until signals are present.

3. Optionally hold SCAN for > 3 seconds, starting a "Live" scan. In this case 
the receiver remains unmuted and scanning will continue until you tap any 
switch or rotate the VFO.

73,
Wayne

[Elecraft] Using N1MM (and others) to Key a KX2 or KX3 with no outboard keyer or CAT commands

2018-08-02 Thread Bob Wilson, N6TV
The S-BOX  supports CW/PTT keying over the DTR/RTS
pins of a KX3 and KX2 serial port, same as you can do on a K3, but by using
standard serial cables and stereo patch cords instead of the KXSER cable.

See  KX3 Docking Station
 .

Bob, N6TV

Put a few calls out on the key and was spotted in Nevada.  Will keep an eye out 
and maybe make another attempt shortly.

Thanks for the notification.

"but here's my question -- what is the CATA1ASC for?"

http://n1mm.hamdocs.com/tiki-index.php?page=Macros

As a TS-590 owner it's interesting that KY command as implemented by Elecraft 
does not conform to the Kenwood definition.  The Elecraft implementation is 
much better since it allows KY strings to be less than the full length required 
by Kenwood.   The difference is huge because it means the application can use 
string substitution where the substitution is not a constant length (as in 
callsign or serial number).

Re: [Elecraft] Using N1MM to Key a K3 with no outboard keyer

2018-08-02 Thread Gary Smith
My regrets that this does not answer the 
topic but FWIW, I was having a lot of 
issues getting N1MM to work with the 
Elecraft keyer. Sometimes it would work 
and other times I would even get N1MM to 
freeze. I utilized Win4K3Suite which is a 
fine software for compatibly but I still 
had intermittent issues with the keying.

I finally bought the Winkeyer USB and only 
have it plugged into the USB port in a 
powered USB hub (or direct to the 
computer) and a cable running from "KEY" 
on the winkeyer to "KEY" on the K3. I then 
checked off Winkeyer in the N1MM 
configuration and that was it, plug & play 
and the CW with N1MM is perfect.

If you can't get a consistent workable 
solution, this is one workable answer to 
getting N1MM to play nice on CW.

73,

Just worked Alabama from CA on 50.125 using 50 W and a hamstick dipole :)

Call me a 6 m newbie, but this is my best DX on 6 yet.

[Elecraft] Using N1MM to Key a K3 with no outboard keyer

2018-08-02 Thread ANDY DURBIN
"but here's my question -- what is the CATA1ASC for?"

http://n1mm.hamdocs.com/tiki-index.php?page=Macros

As a TS-590 owner it's interesting that KY command as implemented by Elecraft 
does not conform to the Kenwood definition.  The Elecraft implementation is 
much better since it allows KY strings to be less than the full length required 
by Kenwood.   The difference is huge because it means the application can use 
string substitution where the substitution is not a constant length (as in 
callsign or serial number).

Re: [Elecraft] K2 KBT2 option question

2018-08-02 Thread Mark Petrovic
Thanks, Don.

I know the question was almost impossibly naive.  I backtracked through the
instructions, and found no mention of which position the switch should be
in.  This omission, and the fact that S1 mentioned in the manual has now
become the 12V jumper, were the only two steps that gave me pause as I
worked through the installation.  Many thanks.
