[Elecraft] Year vs serial number
My K3s serial number is 10599 (somebody at Elecraft must have known the only signal reports I get in contests) HA! Would the number correspond to manufacture in 2016 or 2017? Factory assembled. 73 y Merry Christmas Tom HP1XT K2GO __ 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] Elecraft CW Net Report
Good Evening, Conditions were good on both bands. Lots of strong signals from the East. QSB was slow and steady. I was asked if I took rig information. At that point I realized I knew what kind of rig each of you was running. We used to exchange serial numbers before the K3 came along. Then more of them checked in. Over time we ceased checking numbers and morphed a bit. Now we exchange tidbits of information on this and that. When a new rig or antenna pops up it gets mentioned too. Facts build up over the years :) Maybe I have done this too long; I know my hand was complaining by the end of the second net. Hopefully, as conditions improve, I can convince a few of you to call from farther east or south. That gives another perspective and a longer baseline. Something to consider. On 14050 kHz at 2200z: NO8V - John - MI W0CZ - Ken - ND K4TO - Dave - KY AB9V - Mike - IN K6XK - Roy - IA KB3FBR - Joe - PA On 7047.6 kHz at 0030z: W0CZ - Ken - ND K4TO - Dave - KY K6PJV - Dale - CA K0DTJ - Brian - CA KL7CW - Rick - AK K4WJ - John - FL AE6JV - Bill - NH I know some of you will have a chance to view the Jupiter Saturn conjunction. The rings will appear closer than some of the moons of Jupiter. I doubt they mean the Galilean moons :) Good luck and clear skies to you. Merry Christmas. Until next week 73, Kevin.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 P command not working from RPI and node red, any ideas?
To add to my previous email, if you check with the Hams on the Node Red Amateur group in groups.io, someone will have a KPA500 flow that already works. nodered-hamra...@groups.io Mike va3mw On Sun, Dec 20, 2020 at 10:24 PM Michael Walker wrote: > Hi Dave > > What is the display saying when you’re trying to power it up?.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 P command not working from RPI and node red, any ideas?
Hi Dave What is the display saying when you’re trying to power it up?. I had NodeRed code running for it just fine never had an issue with it. I found at times I managed to get it into the binary upload mode which would mess it up.

[Elecraft] KPA500 P command not working from RPI and node red, any ideas?
I've been trying all day to get the KPA500 to "wake up" with a P command sent from a raspberry PI zero W running node red without success. Every other command works perfectly. If I hook up a laptop to the KPA500 it wakes up every time using the KPA utility of course, anyone know what the difference is? -- Sent from: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.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

[Elecraft] Waiting for Godot
Hello all, I too am waiting for a K4 in Group 2 (a K4HD actually) but I put my order in late (July 2019), and so my wait will be even longer. Meanwhile, my 13 year old K3 (#170) is acting up with random errors and has turned into a repair project. I needed a radio that I could operate remotely. So, I bought an Icom 7300. It is inexpensive and its performance is in the same ball park as most of the direct conversion SDR receivers. I’ll likely sell it when my K4 arrives. The loss in value of the IC-7300 will be the cost of waiting. BTW, the IC-7300 is pretty bare-bones: Single receiver, no APF. A W4ENE Passive CW filter helps improve the CW reception substantially.

[Elecraft] K4D external transverter question
I assume I can listen on one band while transmitting on another with the K4D. Does this extend to using an external transverter? For example, AO-7 Mode A I would be listening on 10m while transmitting on 2m via the transverter port to an external transverter. 73 Bill AA7XT *Bill Hein* *Sound Business Strategies, LLC* *m 970-628-5120* *b...@soundbusiness.us * *The information contained in this transmission may contain privileged and confidential information, including patient information protected by federal and state privacy laws.
