Re: [Elecraft] KRX3: configuration for second antenna routing
Hi All, The diagrams in the Main and Sub Receiver Antenna Routing section of the of the Operators Manual are helpful. But, some confusion might be avoided if the internal plug connections could be indicated in some way. 73, Bob - N9SF At 09:23 PM 1/20/2009, Don Wilhelm wrote: Brian, Whether figure 3 is applicable to your K3 or nor depends on how you have the subRX antenna connection physically connected. If you have connected the subRX antenna to the Aux RF BNC connector, the configuration shown in Figure 3 is not possible whthout changing the antenna cable to the subRX. With the cable from the BNC to the subRX connected, you may choose to connect the subRX to either the main RX antenna or the the AUX RF input. To connect the subRX auxiliary input to the non-transmit KAT3 antenna, the TMP cable from the KAT3 to the subRX antenna input must be in place (instead of the TMP cable from the BNC). Factory built K3s with the subRX installed have the BNC cable installed and a separate TMP cable is shipped with the K3 to allow the user to change to the non-transmit KAT3 antenna. All of this is explained on pages 24 and 25 of the KRX3 installation manual. The first paragraph on page 25 says it all - only one of these options can be installed at one time. 73, Don W3FPR Brian Machesney wrote: Pardon my density, but I can't figure out how to realize the function depicted in figure 3 of the K3 Owner's Manual: routing a signal from the ANT2 connector to the KRX3 through the KAT3. I don't see anything in the FAQ. Can someone, please, tell me how to configure the rig so that K1 and K3 are properly actuated.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 default data mode
Dave, It was puzzling. I had the same situation. Because I often use the MV tap and a number key to change bands, I found that I was resetting my data mode to AFSK A. When a frequency is stored in a memory regardless of the mode, SSB, CW, or data, the data mode in play at the time is stored as well. So, I went through all the number key memories and stored them all again. Even though the mode stored is CW, I went over to the DATA MD and made sure it was FSK D. Then I switched back to CW and stored it, VM and a number key. It is a bit confusing, but I hope this helps. 73, Bob - N9SF At 02:10 PM 11/1/2008, you wrote: Every time I switch to data mode, the K3 comes up in AFSK A, which I never use. Is there a way to have it default to FSK D? Dave Hachadorian, K6LL Yuma, AZ . ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
