[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report
Good Evening, Twenty meters was better than forty. But neither was first rate. QSB was deeper and more prevalent on forty meters. Twenty was a bit more noisy. However, it is still fun to hear the news. Two J-38s, a bug, and a variety of paddles. Good code practice at varied speeds. I also heard I was not the only one held in the grips of winter. When you can't see out of your own driveway it's hard to see others' problems. Hopefully the season will catch up with the calendar and this snow can clear a salmon stream.

[Elecraft] Elecraft 80M SSB Net Announcement
Please join us on 3784 kHz (NOTE THE NEW FREQUENCY), 9PM ET Sunday (0200Z Monday). 80M has been good at that time of the evening, with strong signals and little QRN from thunderstorms these days. Your net control this week will be Dave, N8SBE, although I've had intermittent antenna issues at high power the last couple of weeks. This seems to be an 80M only issue, for some reason. If I continue to have issues this evening, please listen for Eric, WB9JNZ, who did a stellar job a few weeks ago of taking over as NCS after my hi-power station went down. Our power came back after about 92 hours, just short of the required 96 hours for DTE to send us $35 for our trouble. :-) This week, we received 8 inches of wet, heavy snow on Friday evening, which ended up breaking several branches out of an old cedar tree that hangs over the side walk. By today, Sunday, the temperature has been about 50 degrees and the snow is melting fast. Hope to see you this evening on the net. 73, -- Dave, N8SBE __ 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] K3 : strange behaviour
Hi, I have a K3 (from a friend) with strange behaviour in TX. During TX (CW, paddle) I hear the CW rattle like if a small relay is switching on the rhythm of the dit’s and dah’s. This is when using the 100W, using the 10W (driver) and when TX is set to TEST. It’s sounds like if the COR relay is switching (do not get the message and should not be possible when TX is in TEST mode). On the main board next to the Xtal filters there is a yellow LED flashing in the rhythm of the CW as well. I have my own K3 but never heard that. Is that normal ? Anyone here that can give me a hint. 73, Evert PA2KW __ 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] K3 ERR DSE / E 000202
Dear All, the issue seems to be intermittent, simple disassembly/assembly of DSP-board did not help, but switch on/off sometimes "awakes" DSP. Seems to be no real defect but weak contact or cold solder joint. Any idea where to search more in detail? Vy73 Harald DD0VS Von: Harald Fritzsche Gesendet: Sonntag, 19. Februar 2023 14:27 An: 'elecraft@mailman.qth.net' Betreff: K3 ERR DSE / E 000202 Dear All, My K3 is prompting now with ERR DSE, during CQ WPX RTTY it was ok, next switch on this week end it prompts this error. Reloading DSP-firmware wasn't successful. Would be open for further suggestions, my time is limited to some hours on week end, so if you send me suggestion, please understand that I can react only with delay.
