[Elecraft] CW Type and K-3
I had time last night to work on the problem I was having getting CW Type to key the K-3. I was getting the red transmit light but no RF going out the wire. VOX was on and the K-3 was not in test mode. I found that my difficulty is understanding the PTT-KEY menu selections. I cycled through each and finally found that the OFF-DTR selection worked. The CW Type setup menu is for PTT = RTS and KEY = DTR. Don't understand it, but I'm getting the result I was looking for. 73, Greg KD7SRC __ 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
[Elecraft] CW Type
Has anyone successfully gotten CW Type to work with the K-3? I can get it to send the keying to the K-3 but I'm not getting RF out the door. 73, Greg KD7SRC __ 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
[Elecraft] CW Type
I have the computer connected via the RS-232. HRD is working fine so I don't suspect anything wrong with the connection. When I send a letter the red transmit indicator on the K-3 lights as if it were transmitting but no RF out. VOX is on. 73, Greg KD7SRC Steve Ellington wrote: Greg First tell us how you have your computer interfaced to the K3 so it can send the keying as you stated.

Re: [Elecraft] Sneak Preview: New Elecraft products
Hey Guys and Gals, I'll bet the Elecrafters have left at least one thing they have been working on to be a *suprise* at Dayton. Could it be? :-) 73, Greg KD7SRC wayne burdick wrote: Steve Ellington wrote: There must be a good market for wattmeters these days in spite of the fact that most rigs and amplifiers have internal meters. We've long wanted to create a really high-quality LED power/SWR meter. This project has been in the works for quite a while, and is in fact a superset of our W1 mini-module wattmeter. A lot more LEDs, remote sensors, etc. Gosh, I would have thunk a K3-S external speaker would be an easy sell That's another one of my projects, and I haven't had time to finish it. I built one prototype that looks great but still needs some acoustic tweaks. It won't get out of my lab until it's a big improvement on the K3's internal speaker. and a panadapter (Doh!) Why didn't I think of that? 73, Wayne N6KR --- http://www.elecraft.com __ 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 __ 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

Or just connect up the K-3 directly and turn the Windows sounds off. They are a PITA anyway.

Re: [Elecraft] K-2 Transmitted signal distorted (Hum)
Thanks for all the replies! Not a power supply problem. Does exactly the same thing when on battery backup. Nothing new in the operating position to create a problem. RFC15 is *NOT* open. There is 5 volts on both sides of it. Don Wilhelm wrote: One thing you may want to check is RFC15 on the bottom of the RF Board. Check it with an ohmmeter to be certain it is not open. If you try to do it by measuring the voltage on each side of the choke, you will find 5 volts on both sides whether it is open or not. Greg Storms wrote: I have just started experiencing a tremendous distortion on my transmitted signal (K-2). It was first noticed by a SSB contact. He said my transmission was strong but nearly unreadable. I duplicated it at low and high power on a separate receiver. It occurs on both SSB and CW. This happened rather suddenly as I had contacts the previous day with no problems noted. Occurs when the KAT-100 is grounded or ungrounded and on different antennas. Anyone else had this happen?

[Elecraft] AGC and AF gain
Hi Elecrafters: I turned the AGC off the other day and was suprised to note a very noticible increase in audio volume. I had to back the AF gain down by a quarter to a third turn to get it at a reasonable listening level. I tried this on several signals and it was the same. It has always seemed that my K-2 has been weak in audio volume. Doesn't seem like this should be so. Any thoughts? Recheck the AGC threashold setting?
