Re: [Elecraft] Eclipse logistics and em-comm nets?

Totality is only about two minutes, but the total event from when the moon 
begins to cover the Sun until it completes its transit is over two hours. Lots 
to see and experience.

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft compatible WX station

[Mike KS7D]

As the original author of the query about WX stations, I would like to thank 
everyone who responded. I have decided on the Davis Vantage Pro wireless 
weather station. 

I have had experience with these units before in my work environment and they 
performed very well. It's comforting to know many amateurs have had good 
experience with them in a RF environment. 

Thanks again for everyone's advice. This thread can be closed now from my 
perspective.

 Attention KX3 users:
 
 I have a new app in the Apple App Store that provides the complete KX3 
 Owner's Manual in an application you can download to your iPhone or iPod 
 Touch. Very convenient way to have the Owner's Manual with you when you 
 operate portable or mobile. Check the following link for details on the 
 application: https://itunes.apple.com/app/kx3-micro-manual/id578011802?mt=8
 
 * KX3 Micro Manual is a handy reference to the Elecraft KX3 Owner's Manual.
 * The application includes the entire text of the Owner's Manual plus notes 
 on all firmware upgrades since the KX3 was introduced.
 * An index is also included that has direct links to each indexed item. Just 
 tap the index entry and the application will jump to the appropriate 
 location in the Owner's Manual.
 * There also hyperlinks on page numbers listed in the text of the Owner's 
 Manual. Tap the page number hyperlink and the application will jump to the 
 appropriate location in the text.
 * A search tool is provided to allow full text search of each chapter of the 
 KX3 Owner's Manual.
 
 The application is available in the App Store for $0.99. Enjoy.

 Mike ks7d

Re: [Elecraft] Fwd: Doomsday - The End Of The World, Special Event

According to the Mayans the date you refer to in our calendar system was the 
end of one calendar period and the beginning of another for them. The Mayans 
believed the world would never end. 

So, bad news, you will have to pay your taxes next year after all!

Re: [Elecraft] Remote Control of K3 with iPhone/iDevice

[Mike KS7D]

I was looking at the More Controls user interface and there is room to add LSB 
and USB buttons. I can also change the  frequency up down buttons to 10, 100, 
and 1000.  I would be happy to make these changes. I am looking for feedback 
from users on how I can make this app more useful. Please keep the feedback 
coming. Thanks.

 OK about USB and LSB - who cares about phone anyway :-)
 I have been playing with it a while and am amazed how well it works.
 
 I have connected from my home network and from the outside, using the IP 
 address.
 I do something similar when connecting e.g. HRD from the outside.
 I had an account on DynDNS some time ago so I didnt have to worry about my 
 dynamic IP address, but that service which was free has now stopped.
 If I use DynDNS or another similar service, can I then enter an URL like 
 oz4un.dyndns.org (which was the one I used to have)as IP address?
 
 The selected frequency steps of 1, 10 and 1000 Hz may be OK for some.
 I would prefer 10, 100 and 1000 if only three choices are available.
 Or maybe the Fine knob could be changing between the two sets?
 
 Again - my respect for a fine piece of SW!

 Thank you Poul. I am happy to hear you find the program useful. I didn't add 
 USB or LSB buttons because the app is designed for CW and data users. Also 
 space is limited on the small iPhone screen. 
 
 You may want to create some memories that hold your call sign and other 
 frequently transmitted text. That way you can avoid using the iPhone keyboard 
 as much.
 
 I still need to work on audio. Maybe incorporating it into the app would be a 
 better solution than Skype. I will be looking into this.

 Hi Mike

 not a solution you would like to use for rag chewing - but it makes it 
 feasible to check in on the CW frequencies and say hello to your friends

 useful for just about everyone having each their preferred macros for 
 commands not found on the screen elsewhere (So far I needed it for AF level, 
 sidetone level, selecting LSB/USB and for ATU activation).
 
 I am a 100% CW opr, but never the less, why is it that there is no button, 
 so i need to send a K3 command in order to select LSB or USB?
 
 It's a great new use of the iPhone! For the audio I use Skype which works 
 OK, but it is not best suited for CW.

Re: [Elecraft] k3 wifi ser adapter ?!

[Mike KS7D]

Tom,

The device is a WiFly Serial Adapter by Roving Networks (Model RN-370M). It is 
also available from Mouser part number 765-RN-370M.

If you install K3iConnect on your iDevice and start it you can tap on the Help 
tab and get detailed info on setting up and using the serial adapter, or you 
can find it on my web page www.ks7d.com

 want to encourage those who are interested to try them out and provide me 
 feedback on any bugs discovered and enhancements desired.
 
 The apps use two different approaches to communicate with the K3 from your 
 iDevice. K3iConnect establishes an ad hoc network with a wifi serial adapter 
 that fits in the RS232 port on the K3. Thus, no PC/Mac or cables are 
 required and the K3 can be remotely controlled from anywhere within 30+ feet 
 of the radio.
 
 K3iNetwork uses your local WiFi network and PC/Mac to communicate with the 
 K3. In this case you need to have your K3 tethered to your PC or Mac via an 
 RS232 cable. The advantage here is that sound from the K3 line out can be 
 streamed to the iDevice with a third party app such as Airfoil.
 
 Both apps will work with the P3.
 
 I have used these apps to carry on CW and data QSOs with other amateurs. I 
 think they are an exciting addition to the Elecraft Mojo, but they also need 
 the benefit of users ideas on how to make them better. Also, maybe other 
 iDevice or Android developers will be inspired to develop their own apps to 
 add even more capabilities.
 
 Enjoy!

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] PDF manuals on iBooks

[Mike KS7D]

Ron,

The bmp images all show up in iBooks, but the jpegs do not for the most part. 
For example, the images on the cover page and pages 10, 11, 13, 22, 33, 34, 35, 
36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43 and 45 are missing.

 All the images in the P3 manual, other than the screen shots, are
 originally jpg's -(not jpg2000). The jpg is dropped into a vector drawing
 program to add the arrows, callouts, etc., and that is converted into the
 final jpg that is inserted into the manual. 
 
 The screen shots that do not have any callouts are BMPs captured using the
 P3 utility and dropped straight into the manual. They were not converted to
 jpgs.

 I agree that GoodReader is generally better than iBooks for reading
 pdf's on an iPad, but Giuseppe's discovery applies to GoodReader too.
 Not all images in the P3 manual display on the iPad, and saving a new
 version of the pdf from Preview makes everything show up, though the
 difference is invisible on a Mac.
 
 It's not every image that causes problems, though, as if they were
 created in more than one program and assembled from several sources.
 Which makes sense.  So, many of the manuals are probably completely
 ok, and you will find problems only when your iPad version has a blank
 area that should have an image or figure in it.

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] PDF manuals on iBooks

[Mike KS7D]

I have the same problem, but not with all the Elecraft manuals. I notice it 
with the P3 manual but not the K3 manual. It seems to be a problem with iBooks, 
as the images are fine in Adobe PDF reader.

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] Need for advice

[Mike KS7D]

Thanks Wayne. When it is ready I will incorporate it into my K3 Micro Manual. 
Should make a very valuable supplement.

Ed,

Look in the Firmware Release Notes on the Elecraft web site. CW QRQ was added 
after the current Owner's Manual was printed. TX DVR was also added post manual 
printing.

 Hello,
 Is there an owner's manual update available that shows the latest

 setting in the CONFIG Menu, but I can't find a description of this in the
 latest manual.

Re: [Elecraft] (Fwd) Re: Droid

[Mike, ks7d]

Hi Brett,

It will require a server program to be developed for the PC, Mac or Linux 
computer that is connected to the K3. So, to provide access for Windows, Mac 
and Linux users there will need to be three different server versions 
developed. Then a client side application needs to be written to operate on 
the Android phone (and another for the iPhone for Wayne ;-) ). That client 
should be able to work through any of the server programs whether they are 
Windows, Mac or Linux based.

The biggest challenge in my mind is how to put a user friendly interface on 
the small screen of a Droid or iPhone. It is much easier to design a client 
side interface for a laptop or desktop PC because there is so much more 
screen 'real estate' available.

Mike, ks7d

 I'd really dig seeing an Android K3 client however in order to work
 right it will probably require a PC side client.  I can only hope that
 we get to maintain cross platform compatibility so that Linux and Mac
 users can use the Android client...  I've been quite happy with the
 Linux K3 utility and only have to run the windows one in a VM for short
 bits while waiting for the Linux one to catch up...

 Any chance of the utilities being open sourced?
