Re: [Elecraft] New wierd K3s behavior

2018-05-23 Thread Bob McGraw K4TAX 
Although I've not experienced this, with or without having run WSJT-X, I 
have experienced some software applications which do not correctly 
terminate and thus my leave an erroneous  command in the radio.    This 
can happen if the software application is running or open and the radio 
is powered down before the software application is closed.  This command 
may still be resident even after a power cycle of the radio.   I have 
always found it best to close any and all of the software application(s) 
before powering down the radio.  Having done this, most will make a 
clean exit.

I posted about it here before and was told it was probably an issue 
with WSJT-X which doesn't make sense because the radio behaves this 
way without WSJT-X even running on my computer.  I don't know how 
WSJT-X could change the K3 firmware.

A quick trip to CW then hitting a few dits on the paddle produces the
expected 100w barefoot power.

Then returning to DATA A and TUNE and the expected tune power is 
emitted.


No idea why this would occur and it is a new thing. I have recently 
updated
to the latest beta firmware for the enhanced KPA1500 integration. 
Perhaps a

bug was introduced there?

Re: [Elecraft] New wierd K3s behavior

2018-05-22 Thread Fred Jensen 
Decades ago, a good friend who was a Royal Lao Air Force officer asked 
me if I would assist his daughter with English in preparation for her 
secondary school admissions examination.  I realized early on that I was 
heading for failure while we were on formation of plurals ... dog/dogs, 
cat/cats, person/people, goose/geese, moose/moose, sheep/sheep, ...  The 
Lao language has no plurals so we were starting from scratch.  It was at 
least an order of magnitude harder than O Chem and we hadn't even gotten 
to "i before e ... or not, you choose."

When I turn on my K3s (and let it finish booting) and try pressing TUNE
(hold XMIT) I get a zero power indication rather than tune power if in DATA
A mode.

A quick trip to CW then hitting a few dits on the paddle produces the
