Just for clarification - this T1 was not factory assembled - I built it from a kit a while back. > On Apr 4, 2022, at 11:07 AM, James Bennett wrote: > > Got another item in the shack that has moved to my “un-needed at this time” > list: an Elecraft T1 tuner, with printed manual.

Re: [Elecraft] [FOC] K3 problem solved.!!!
Hello I guess in the KPA3 config there is the KPA not „on“. KPA3 amplifier module: set the KPA3 menu entry to PA NOR. See menu entry listings for information on other settings. Set to PA NOR if KPA3 100-W amp installed. Set to PAIO NOR if KPA3 is not installed, but the KPAIO3 transition PC board is. Other settings include PA BYP (disables KPA3 if installed),PA fan test settings (PA FN1-FN4 or PAIO FN1 -FN4 ), and PAIO BYP (if transition board is installed, but not the KPA3 module, this setting can be used to test the high power bypass relay) 161 de Harry Gesendet von Mail für Windows Von: 'Josep' via foc_members Gesendet: Montag, 4.

Re: [Elecraft] K4 Delivery delay
Sam, I was at the end of group 2. According to the https://groups.io/g/CreativeK4ShippingStatus/topics Elecraft has delivered about 100 units since mine in January. I waited just over a year for my K4. Having bought a K3 over 10 years ago, I have always been impressed by the service from them. Both by how the owners pipe in on the email reflector and service will spend the time on the phone to troubleshoot when the problem ended up being me! Personally - I was happy that Elecraft used their limited resources to deliver K4s rather than spending time making us feel better about waiting. Believe me - you will forget the time waiting and be happy with the K4. Join the io group to see where you stand if that is important to you - join the CreativeK4ShippingStatus group. 73 George AI4VZ On Sun, Apr 3, 2022 at 12:34 PM Sam Sargent via Elecraft < elecraft@mailman.qth.net> wrote: > > I readthe Elecraft (EC) Digest regularly and find many articles > interesting, and someuseful.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 MCU LD
You’re right, not all cables work. If you have one by Prolific, best advice is to bin it. Elecraft supplies a cable with the FTDi interface, or you can buy one elsewhere. Don’t buy a cheap one, it’s a false economy. The K3 utility should be the latest one from Elecraft. When you finally get the port to show, ensure that the baud rate is set to 34800, just to be on the safe side. You may need to force a re-load by applying 13.8V power, then press and hold the power button for at least 10 seconds. I forget the exact indicators, but you will see the backlight go off. 73, Alan - G4GNX > On 4 Apr 2022, at 06:13, Josep Torres via Elecraft > wrote: > > Hi guys, > > New to this list.

[Elecraft] N1MM and K3
Hi all, I have been able to recover my stuck K3 at MCU LD with an old Serial to USB cable.I want to use it with my N1MM but find the transmmiting is not clean and sure it is due to the quality of that cable. Which one would you recommend to buy so my TXing will be clear and clean.? I know Elecraft has one, could someone send me the link so I can order the right one.?

Re: [Elecraft] K3 problem solved.!!!
Josep, Apparently the 100 Watt PA has been disabled. Go to "Config" (Press and hold MENU), rotate VFO B until you see "KPA3", then rotate VFO A to select "PA nor." Remember, it is always a good idea to back up your K3 configuration. Use the K3 Utility to do a Config Backup. If you ever have a problem, you can always restore the K3 from that configuration file.
