[Elecraft] K3: 6m CW Rev

2008-07-04 Thread paul.bradbeer2
Stewart,

I have reproduced the problem on my K3, and I haven't noticed it before.  I'm 
running f/w 2.13 and I wonder if that has introduced the problem?

Regards

[Elecraft] K3: Smart PTT for transverter??

2008-05-27 Thread paul.bradbeer2
I use my K3 predominantly for 6m and to drive my 2m transverter (not an XV144). 
 I'm having great fun with it but would like to do a 'smart PTT' for the 2m 
transverter - i.e. only when the Band Up switch has selected the Transverter.  

At the moment, with the transverter in standby, and me operating on 6m, 
everytime I transmit it operates the PTT to the transverter too.  Has anyone 
found a way of using the commands on the ACC connector, so that PTT to the 
transverter will only be activated when the transverter band has been selected 
by the K3??

Grateful for any suggestions..

Paul M0CVX

[Elecraft] 2nd Rx and DVR3

2008-01-18 Thread paul.bradbeer2
I suppose like many I have felt aggrieved at delays etc in the past but have 
not added to the noise.  However, the 2nd Rx and DVR3 issue though has prompted 
me to post.

The nub of the matter isn't that Elecraft are so much better than YaeKenCom etc 
about 'admitting' their delays etc, the problem for me is that Options such as 
the 2nd Rx and DVR were toted as main features of the K3 (and thus, things that 
influenced my purchasing decision), not things that my be developed later.  The 
fact that 8 months after I placed my order with deposit (2nd batch I thought... 
but I'm getting so confused now) there is no sign of a KDVR3 or KRX3 is shoddy 
at best, and bordering on deceptive.

I'm a big Elecraft fan/supporter, and have been for years, but the fact that my 
ordered K3 keeps slipping away, that my 50% deposit (now) counts for nought (at 
the time the website lead me to believe it moved me up the chain..), and that 
key Options are still a long way from Production standard, just leaves me 
feeling bruised. I'm not at all reassured by the 'Shipping Updates' because 
unless one has an insight as to how many orders there were for 8/9/10 May 07 
etc, it is completely meaningless for people with later orders. 

Sorry, I've kept my gob shut for a long time now, but this is not a good way to 
treat loyal customers.  Flame away, I know this is heresy

[Elecraft] K3 and XV144...

2007-07-22 Thread paul.bradbeer2
I'm mainly going to use my K3 for 6m and 2m using my recently built XV144.  
However, in terms of optimising my station's performance (in this case, 
thinking of removing the MMIC after the PHEMT front-end to improve the XV144's 
dynamic range) I'm reliant on doing the maths based on other people's lab tests 
(like many I'm sure, I just don't have the lab gear!).  

The XV144 gain/NF plot on the website shows about 28dB gain and 0.6 dB NF - is 
this typical?  Also the latest K3 specs show the MDS as being -136dBm...but is 
this pre-amp On or Off?  

At the moment I reckon the XV144 won't need the second stage of front-end gain, 
especially if the K3 has anything close to a 16dB NF at 28 MHzbut I'd 
appreciate some second opinions...

No rush, I'm in the second production run  :-)

Regards

Paul  M0CVX (and AC5NO)
