Thanks Scott, I have a Linux laptop that I can give-it-a-go. At least 
I'll make myself a personal copy of the site, then figure out the 
copyright implications and get approval before doing anything to be 
respectful.


Too bad we can't just throw a few bucks to spin up the domain 
again...darn internet pirates always want money lol.

[Elecraft] KE7X Website

[edauer]

Hello Tony -

 

I don't know how much I could do towards re-establishing Fred Cady's
website, but I would certainly support such a project and would help if I
can.  Fred was a friend, as he was to many of us.  He had family in Denver,
where I live, and visited often.  We got together whenever our calendars
both allowed.  Fred and I and Gus, KB0YH, had lunch together, and spoke with
him after his health took the turn, just days before he passed away, here in
Denver.  I was one of his assistants - more accurately, one of his students
- in doing the book on macro programming.  Working with him was more than a
pleasure.

 

The best person to contact, I suggest, would be Vic, VE3YT.  Vic was a close
friend of Fred's and co-author on more than one of his books.

 

Revitalizing his website would be a benefit to the entire Elecraft community
and a fitting memorial to Fred.

 

Ted, KN1CBR

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] FT4/8 Transmit Problem

[Bill Coleman]

I had a similar problem like this when using a SoundBlaster X G1 sound device. 
I solved it by only transmitting on one channel. If I use BOTH channels on 
output, it would do this weirdness. 

Don’t know if that helps you or not.

[Elecraft] Problem with K3s XVTR Power Range Settings

[John O'Mara]

I'm working on interfacing a new Q5 Systems 5 band xvtr with my K3s.  I have
run the mW calibration procedures and the K3s and the Q5 are operating fine
together.  I have set the K3s max XVTR power output to 1.00 mw on each band
(XVn PWR L 1.00) and I expected to be able to turn the power all the way
down to .01 mW as stated in the manual.  However, the lowest I can get the
power turned down to with the PWR knob is .10 mW.  I need to be able to turn
the K3s xvrt power output down very low to drive the xvtr to about 500 mW
output to match the low drive requirements of one of my brick amps.

 

I can set the XVn PWR to a drive level below .10 mW but the power knob does
not seem to be operable below .10 mW. 

 

The power settings for each xvtr band in the XVn PWR setting are showing
this same behavior.

 

 

 

Reference page 41, Using Transverters, XVn Power, "L .01- L 1.27 specifies a
power level in milliwatts."

 

Reference page 68, Xvn PWR  Default L .01 

 

Any help with what I'm missing here is truly appreciated.

 

73, Jack W4NF

Re: [Elecraft] KE7X Website Expired

[Clay Autery]

I would be happy to host it on my AccuWeb server in Denver with the 
understanding that IF the traffic, et al. causes me to have to spend 
TONS of money, I will need to find a way t make it pay for itself  
or "beg" for donations.
It's a SUPER fast and almost completely unpopulated server with 4 full 
cores, lots o RAM, and SSD storage...


I LOVE ALL my Cady books.  Wish I could have met him while he was here.

Sadly, unless someone in his family still has his PERSONAL machine and 
access to it, OR made a download of the site BEFORE it expired, it is 
almost 100% that the data disappeared into the ether when they pulled 
the plug... (wiped it).
MIGHT be able to recover a substantial portion of it from the WayBack 
Machine.  That's how I got all the Sommer website, before someone else 
found an archive and put it back up...   (Sommer's family trashed ALL of 
his notes, records, drawings, et al so they say  I spoke with 
one of his heirs.  I was going to take out a $500k loan to put the -808, 
et al. back in production.

I just received a Lulu.com printed copy of "The Elecraft K3 and P3 -

an awesome reference.


Would there be any interest in re-hydrating his website if we have a 
way to get the files/data? I would certainly be willing to sponsor it 
and buy the domain/host in the cloud to keep it going since it is well 
known and in various print references.

Re: [Elecraft] N6TV S-Box and Y-Box

Hi Eric

If you like making kits an alternative to running your K2/10 with a somewhat 
expensive KPA1500 is the HRD500. Its a kit and while I didn’t build one I have 
been using a prototype that Jim Veatch (designer) lent me. Its pretty awesome 
and has an ATU built in.

Re: [Elecraft] KE7X Website Expired

[Tony KX3H]

Agreed. Since it's available on the "internet wayback machine" (thanks 
Dave), at least we all can find what was originally published.


I'm running a wget process with some flags to make a copy for myself.

Sometimes trying to get the original web domain transferred is more 
expensive and not worth the trouble with whomever he was using (the 
website was hosted out of Germany per netcraft.com). Then there's the IP 
concerns and family wishes if any.


All great information, glad it's still available via archives at least. 
I found it in early December right before it disappeared when I went to 
go look up something.


I now have both the paper K3 and PDF K3S books to enjoy for a while :) 
Don't mind spending around $35-40 each for a quality manual that I can 
read offline.

Maybe this isn't new news but the KE7X.com website that is a treasure
trove of Elecraft information seems to be expired and "parked" -- not
accessible. Being new to Elecraft, I just learned Fred became an SK in
May of 2019.

I just received a Lulu.com printed copy of "The Elecraft K3 and P3 -
Third Edition" book for my new-to-me K3 that I bought recently, it's an
awesome reference.

Would there be any interest in re-hydrating his website if we have a way
to get the files/data? I would certainly be willing to sponsor it and
buy the domain/host in the cloud to keep it going since it is well known
and in various print references.

Re: [Elecraft] Yaesu FT DX10

[Igor Sokolov]

Jim,

You are correct. Some of my neighbors had been giving me a lot of 
headaches with their YASU rigs in the past. Hopefully this new one is 
going to be a lot cleaner. Just look at its LO noise figures which are 
in 150+ dBc/Hz region.


Regarding clicks on CW you are right again. According to the FTDX10 
manual operator can choose CW rise time between 1,2,4 and 8 ms. And we 
know would it sound like with 1 ms setting.

[Elecraft] Not worrying about K4 delivery

[William Levy]

Gents

I have been Pandemic waiting, this list is from March.
4 inch Wooden posts 12 long
36" fridge
44" fridge
4 burner stove
30" fridge
New Car
all while staying healthy and masking up always when out.

One thing I have learned. Everyone knows me masked.
So the lesson here is don't rob the local bank or the local stage.
Those bandana masks from the 19th century Westerns didn't fool anyone.

That said stuff slowly comes in, then stops, then starts. All our factories
are short people or shut down.

You can't buy a FLEX thinking you will play with that until the K4 arrives
cause those are out 3 months and Maestro's even longer.

Now we are all waiting for a new government and a newer better vaccine.

So let's stop worrying about the K4. It will arrive someday along with all
the other stuff we are waiting for.

Warmest regards, stay safe,
Bill N2WL

[Elecraft] KE7X Website Expired

[Tony KX3H]

Maybe this isn't new news but the KE7X.com website that is a treasure 
trove of Elecraft information seems to be expired and "parked" -- not 
accessible. Being new to Elecraft, I just learned Fred became an SK in 
May of 2019.


I just received a Lulu.com printed copy of "The Elecraft K3 and P3 - 
Third Edition" book for my new-to-me K3 that I bought recently, it's an 
awesome reference.


Would there be any interest in re-hydrating his website if we have a way 
to get the files/data? I would certainly be willing to sponsor it and 
buy the domain/host in the cloud to keep it going since it is well known 
and in various print references.



Thanks,

Tony, KX3H

[Elecraft] N6TV S-Box and Y-Box

[eric norris via Elecraft]

This is an unsolicited, whole-hearted endorsement of N6TV's S-Boxes and Y-Box. 
I wish I had taken a picture of the pile of wiring eliminated by my first 
Y-Box.  
Bob recently delivered an S-Box that allows my two K2s (with serial I/O  and 
key-out options), KX2, or KX3 to be connected to a KAT/KPA500 or KPA1500.  The 
playtime options are nearly endless, and I had a blast on Straight Key Night 
using my K2s and HW-16.  Sadly, the chrping, whooping, drifting, and clicking 
Heath HW-16 cannot be supported by the S-Box.
Thanks, Bob!

[Elecraft] Fwd: Any value in using a Microkeyer III with a K3S or K4?

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

Unless the interface is poorly designed (like some "low price"
amateur only devices), the noise floor is generally set by the
IF noise in the transceiver on the higher bands and by the
"no signal" atmospheric noise on the low bands.

A 24 bit sound card has the potential to provide greater dynamic
range than the more common 16 bit cards but *only* if the software
is written to take advantage of the "extra bits".  Swapping a 24
bit sound card for a 16 bit sound card will make no difference
on existing software like MMTTY, FLDIGI/DM780, etc.

73,

   ... Joe, W4TV

I have a K3... the best radio I've ever owed in my 50+ year ham life.  I'm

years.

My understanding is that the K3S and now the incoming K4's have sound cards 
built-in via the USB port.  So perhaps I won't need the Navigator anymore when 
my K4 eventually arrives.  But my question is whether there is still something 
to be gained using a newer transceiver interface with the K3S or K4?  I've been 
looking at the Microkeyer III with its 24 bit audio processing.  Does anyone 
have any hands-on experience with the Microkeyer III with Elecraft radios?  I'm 
particularly interested if it has a lower noise floor or other features that 
might not be found in the stock K3S or K4.

Thanks for any input or feedback!

Hi Don,

I think I tracked the problem and I would like to document it for

I noticed that during SKCC events I don’t have the issue. In the 
following  contest instead of using internal keyer though serial port 
I switched to an external keyer and sure enough the issue did not 
surface. That brought me to a serial port cable that was provided by 
the previous owner of the K2. I found that the cable was just a 
standard serial extension cable. I quickly made a makeshift serial per 
Elecraft recommendation and was not able reproduce the problem with 
the correct cable. I ran the K2 in Winter RAC and it worked as 
intended. I am happy that I did not fry a chip with the wrong cable 
but apparently wrong cabling may introduce a quite strange side effect 
that makes the chip work incorrectly when it is under the temperature 
pressure.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 firmware issue?

[Drew Arnett]

Hi Dave,

Any news on the audio manual & remote control issue?

I found that the mailing list wasn't that helpful for technical
issues.  I found a FW issue, which took some time to get confirmed.
(WIll it get fixed?)  Someone else reported a possible FW issue not
long ago, so I reproduced it to help them rule out HW.  (Will it get
fixed?)

I saw your report of a FW issue and thought I'd check with you to see
if there was any progress or if you would still like someone to
reproduce to confirm that it is a FW and not HW issue?

Best regards,

Drew Arnett

Re: [Elecraft] Yaesu FT DX10

I also consider FTDX10 as addition to my K3 and KX3 because of good 
value for money ratio and excellent dynamic range. Another feature that 
is found in my K3 and that I will be missing in FTDX10 is  the ability 
to change AGC slope and threshold.

Elecraft pros: QSK is much better in K3S. K3S has good diversity , you can
record QSOs, RX 1 and RX2 are accessible

By now probably most everyone has read Rob Sherwood's review of the
new kid on the block, the Yaesu FTDX10. It has pushed the IC7300 out
the door for the best bang for the buck place. What I was most
interested in was the phase noise of the radio. It is minimally down
to at least -148db. That is where the 7300 falls flat on its face.
Additionally, so does Yaesu 450D and 991A. Those 2 radios are one
radio shack radios. I know this because I own both of them.

$1700, what a great price point to recommend a new ham that wants a
contest grade radio that he can build upon. Seemingly, based on the
Sherwood stats, the FTDX10 would work well in a 2 radio environment.
That would beg the question, would they be ideal for an SO2R setup.
$3400 for 2 radios and add a $100 to $300 dollar controller and you
are GTG. WOW! Granted the radios do have many shortcomings  when it
comes to a full contest grade radio but for the most part they, could
be an excellent choice. The problem with field day is that tons of
people have Ic7300s and they are a disaster at FD. The FTDX10 should solve

all those problems being low on phase noise.

Maybe our FD ops will be much easier and if the rigs were FTDX10s. We
shall see.

Where the FTDX10 falls flat is in a few areas that can be worked around.
The areas that they are deficient are, one antenna port, no rx antenna
port, nonstandard plugs for ALC and PTT lines for an amp and other
associated station accessories, such as amps, sequencers, etc, and
ofcourse, no diversity receive capability. My all time hate is the
RJ45 connector for microphone input.  And, I don't believe it can do dual

watch.

It is either VFO A or B not both. This is what I can gather from the
literature in the trade brochure.

All except, dual rx and diversity can be worked around. At this price
point this is an excellent box. It is about the same size as a current
K3S but a bit shorter in height. There is an optional CW filter/narrow
banpass filter of 300 hz but I have no idea the steepness of the cut off

for that filter.

Plus there is an adjustable rise time feature that allows the user to
produce an undesirable cw signal. This is one of the big negatives
that Yaesu incorporates into their radios.

Same size as a K3S, built in Pan, Video out, 3 usb ports, SD card for
DVR recording providing record on fly and 5 memory bands, 5 built in
CW memory slots, optional outboard keypad to key DVR and CW memory
banks, with all of these features, this now is the best bang for the
buck and the rx surpasses the K3S spex plus the DNR and filtering is
astounding in Yaesu radios. Heh, even the cheapest 450D DNR function
can eliminate 40 meter alternator noise in my F150 when I run mobile.
It is even better in this radio, most likely, because it is
generations better and an SDR. It weighs 13 pounds, did I say
DXpedition or travels well. That is yet to be seen. Some of the main
mechanics of the main tuning and bezel knobs might cause some worry.
Time will tell. The radio is made on a cast aluminum frame much the
same as the 991A. My 991A has been abused, mobile, salt water ops,
special events, FD, camping, portable from picnic table...still works
great. I have used it on
FT8 for days at a time running 80 watts. No problems. Now that I am
retired and home, the 991A has been relegated to 2/440 operation only.
I just might sell it and raise money for my new FD radio, the FTDX10.

The real issue with this radio is, the K3S used prices might just have
dropped another $500. The K3S is nearing the EOL time and the
replacement with better RX stats and a pan adaptor included with no
extra cabling or boxes fitting into the same size as a K3/K3S for Less

My apologies for building your hopes.The manual is still advertised on the site 
but has no options to purchase.

Re: [Elecraft] K4 Kit and CE

[turnbull]

Bill, I stand corrected.    I have a K4D ordered in that I use diversity.    
When the superhet front end comes out it will be added.I well understand Covid 
problems.   It is rampant in the EU  as well.   Still plans must be in place.   
Production thanks to much effort is running.   It is not unreasonable for a 
customer for many years to ask questions.   One of the wonders of Elecraft is 
that they engage with their customers.73 Doug EI2CNSent from my Samsung Galaxy
