RE: [Elecraft] K3 Display T Symbol
Manual, Page 12: T indicates FM/tone, or CW/data text decode. Hmmm. I don't think there's anything in the menus that allows for setting a CTCSS tone. Maybe that will be added later. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roger Sent: Monday, September 15, 2008 3:20 PM To: elecraft Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Display T Symbol What does the letter T mean when it appears in the lower right hand corner of the display?

RE: [Elecraft] K3 Display T Symbol
Oops, there it is on page 29. Tone encode is set up by holding PI TCH. Rotate VFO A to select a CTCSS tone frequency (or the European repeater access tone, 1750 Hz). Use VFO B to turn tone encode on (PL TONE) or off (PL OFF). -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Brandon Sent: Monday, September 15, 2008 3:44 PM To: 'Roger'; 'elecraft' Subject: RE: [Elecraft] K3 Display T Symbol Manual, Page 12: T indicates FM/tone, or CW/data text decode.

[Elecraft] K3 all mode squelch?
I was tinkering with the SQ MAIN menu setting in FW version 2.38 and hit the DISP button for an explanation. It says . tap '1' to use squelch in all modes. Sounds like a nice feature, but it's not working for me. Squelch only works in FM. Is the DISP text out ahead of the feature?

[Elecraft] More changeable items during transmit
I love the ability to toggle RIT during transmit. The next items on my wish list would be toggling the RX antenna, normalizing the bandpass controls, and changing filters. Keep up the good work, guys! Robert K5PI ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.

RE: [Elecraft] More changeable items during transmit
Best of all is a TR-LOG feature that allows you to tap the shift keys to bend the RIT -- then hit both to clear it. This was a feature in the Kenwood command set that Elecraft adopted. I don't *think* any other programs have this feature, but I could be mistaken.

I agree, although I have RIT on most of the time anyway. What I really appreciate is being able to adjust the RIT during transmit. When someone answers a CQ, I am busy typing in their call sign and not able to simultaneously adjust RIT. So, while my response transmission is going out to them I can adjust the RIT. I've already heard their signal and can blindly adjust the RIT for optimum copy when they come back with their exchange. Then, my TU message (or subsequent CQ message) clears the RIT to be ready for the next caller. 73, Ed - W0YK ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

RE: [Elecraft] Prospective K3 Owner
I used a muffin pan to sort out my hardware. It worked very well. I didn't have enough cups to sort everything out, so I pre-sorted the most similar looking parts (e.g., small black pan heads from small black flat heads). And I separated out the small number of zinc pan heads of unusual lengths from the large number of those that were all the same. There were quite a few errata in my version of the assembly instructions. Rather than doing a lot of paper cutting and pasting, I simply used a highlighter pen to tag sections where I needed to refer to the errata.

(There are a LOT of screws!) Some people pre-sort all the screws. I just dumped them and the washers into a shallow pan and hunted through them as they were called out. But do pay close attention to the screw lengths and washer types specified in the instructions. 73, Drew AF2Z ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
