Re: [Elecraft] CONFIG PTT-KEY Parameter
I'll try these diagnostic ideas when it happens...it is pretty intermittant. Thanks for the ideas. I hadn't thought about the computer hookup. - Chuck, KE9UW -- Sent from: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] CONFIG PTT-KEY Parameter
Carl, You are not wrong. USB setting on the RS232 PARAMETER seems to be the cause.

Easy enough to test out if I'm wrong! -- 73, Carl AB1DD Resistance is futile.

Does the same thing happen if you disconnect the computer? 73, Don W3FPR On 11/19/2020 10:07 AM, w...@jetbroadband.com wrote: GM All, I have something very unusual going on with both of my K3 radios.
