Re: [Elecraft] FSK-D, Y-BOX & WinKeyer - config help please
Thanks everyone. I think I have the combination of K3s, Fldigi, WinKeyer and Y-Box doing FSK OK. All my issues seemed to be centered around Fldigi quirks. Pretty frustrating but done is done. The Y-box ties everything together nicely and exposes the FSK and PTT pins for easy access from the WinKeyer. Let me know if you want my notes about setting up the WinKeyer with Fldigi for FSK. 73, Kev N4TT On Wed, Jul 17, 2019 at 11:07 PM Mark Musick wrote: > Kevin, > > I think going to the FLDIGI reflector is your best bet. > > It is good to know it is a FLDIGI issue and not a hardware issue. > > Sorry I couldn’t be more help. > > Good luck finding the fix and please let us know here on the Elecraft > reflector what you find. > > > > 73, > > Mark, WB9CIF > > > > *From:* Kevin, N4TT > *Sent:* Thursday, July 18, 2019 02:45 > *To:* Mark Musick > *Cc:* Elecraft Reflector Reflector > *Subject:* Re: [Elecraft] FSK-D, Y-BOX & WinKeyer - config help please > > > > Hi Mark...

[Elecraft] K3s configuration question
When operating RTTY contests like NAQP, I like to run my KPA500 at 100W, vs. running the K3s at full power. Reason: both the K3 and the KPA run their final amps cooler. Usually I have my K3s configured for 100W when the KPA500 is off on on Standby, and configured to drive the KPA at 500W when it's operating. But If I turn on the KPA and want to run it at 100W, I have to lower the K3's drive power, then increase it after the contest. QUESTION: Does the configuration saved by the K3 utility include per-band power settings for the K3 only AND the K3 plus the KPA? If so, can I then save a "normal" configuration, then lower the K3 drive and save a "100W KPA output" configuration? If I later restored one of these configurations, would the K3s return to those per-band power settings? Thanks for any information on this. -- 73, Mike N4CF Louisa County, VA USA Elecraft K-Line: K3s / P3 / KPA500 / KAT500 Carolina Windom up 45' http://n4cf.mdodd.com __ 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] KIO3B usb com port not communicating
Raj, Try looking in Device Manager again. Which COM port goes away when you unplug the USB cable from the computer? COM1 is normally reserved for the motherboard serial port - which will be RS-232 and not USB. It will be there whether it is connected to the back panel or not. Then plug the USB cable back in - which COM port is assigned? Put that COM port number into K3 Utility and try to connect. 73, Don W3FPR On 7/18/2019 10:03 AM, Rajiv Dewan wrote: Hello, I have KIO3B (USB interface) in my K3. It was working well.
