I used to complain about the K3's NR functions, but now I have a much 
newer TS-890s sitting next to it, and in comparison, the K3's NB and NR 
are far better. So everything is relative.

The best NR I've heard, and nothing else was close, was demonstrated to 
me by Warren Pratt, NR0V who is credited with developing Pure Signal. He 
showed it to me on 40M SSB using an ANAN SDR during the day at his QTH 
down the road a few miles from K6XX. It was quite close to being 
transparent, and quite effective.


I've yet to hear a K4 or the current generation of Flex rigs.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Noise Reduction

2022-11-06 Thread Brian Hunt
There was a very good description of the K3 NR written by Lyle, the DSP 
designer for Elecraft. It may be on their website. 

Basically, as I understand it, the NR is designed to work against random noise. 
Noise that has a correlated component, like line noise, it doesn’t address as 
well. 

I’ve found that, properly adjusted, it works very well on CW but using it on 
SSB created unacceptable “mush” on the audio. 

Hopefully the spectral subtraction NR when available on the K4 will be much 
better.

[Elecraft] Y-Box For Sale

2022-11-06 Thread Richard Lawn
I no longer have an Elecraft radio so this Y-Box by N6TV is no longer of
any use. I also have a couple of cables for it. It was set up for me to
config. TX INH to HI=inh GND TX OK to allow RF output. I used it for EME
operation. I have the original configuration diagram by N6TV and I believe
he would return it to the normal wiring state for the cost of postage.

I'm asking $100 shipped anywhere in US.

[Elecraft] K3S Noise Reduction

2022-11-06 Thread Richard
Thanks to all who chimed in about this. I will be trying everyone’s advice.

I still think it’s sad that all I have to do to significantly block noise in 
SSB on my old IC-706MkIIG and my IC-7300 is touch one button: most of the noise 
is gone and the level of the audio itself hasn’t dropped so you could notice.

I’d told this shortcoming as been addressed and corrected in the K4.

Cheers,

Richard

Re: [Elecraft] K3S Noise Reduction

2022-11-06 Thread Charles Hill
Richard,

I saw this explanation of a procedure to adjust the NB from this reflector.  
I’ve tried it and it works.

Also see page 103 of “Getting the Most from Elecraft K3” by Fred Cody KE7X.

73,
Chuck K0MV

The approach I use for the Noise Blanker is this.

I first activate the NB and then the Level.   I start with the DSP OFF and the 
IF OFF.  I then adjust the DSP value for optimum results without it destroying 
the quality of the signal.  DO MAKE A NOTE OF THIS VALUE.  Then set the DSP 
back to OFF.  Then move to the IF and scroll through the settings in an effort 
to find optimum results.  Once this is done, leave the IF value as determined 
and return to the DSP and set it to the value previously determined.

This works for a given band and given type of noise.  Change bands or noise and 
do it all again.  There is no ONE setting correct for every condition.   Right 
now my 6M noise buzz is S-7 with the NB off.  Then turning it ON and adjusted 
as above the 6M noise is S-3.  That's 4 S units or 24 dB improvement.  I doubt 
you will get much better than this.

As to Noise Reduction, I find it best performs for CW mode. Again it takes 
careful adjustment to obtain optimum results.   I don't use NR for SSB signals. 
I prefer to adjust the Attenuation value and the RF Gain to produce optimum 
results when operating SSB.   I find optimum results occur when the no signal 
band noise is about 10 dB above the receiver noise floor.   In order to 
accomplish this operating point, one will need to use ATTENUATION and RF Gain 
reduction.   More gain won't aid in receiving weak signals, but just the 
opposite, as the signal will pop out of the noise.

I generally find using either NB or NR, but not both, is the better way to 
operate.  I doubt there is anything wrong with your radio.  Most likely the 
result is more related to receiver setting parameters.

73

[Elecraft] Drive Control - K3 and FPA-1500

2022-11-06 Thread Pete Smith N4ZR
Just finished SS, and on many occasions when switching bands I found 
myself overdriving the KPA-1500 on the new band.  No harm done, but I 
thought the K3/KPA-1500 combination was supposed to manage drive on a 
per-band basis.  Did I get that wrong?

Yes it would.  You can de-tune a bit to make RX sound OK, but you can't 
do that in transmit.

Make sure the filter selected for SSB is the OP1 filter.

There should be no difference is width for LSB and USB that could be

Use an audio spectrum analyzer (Spectrogram for instance) for best

the passband at 300 Hz.  If possible use a broadband noise

Kudos to my very good friend Ken, K4ZW, for his stellar CQWW SSB 
performance. Claimed score on 3830 of 6,280,820 points being #1 in the 
US and #7 worldwide.


Whilst undoubtedly Ken's skill, honed over many years, and his rather 
herculean (at least to me) 45 hours in the chair contributed to his 
success, I think we can all agree that Ken's new Elecraft K4 played a 
major role not to mention his K3 second radio.


Well done Ken and Elecraft.

Martin, HS0ZED
