[Elecraft] K3 144 repeater settings?

2010-07-28 Thread Gil WA5YKK
Any and all with the 2 meter module;

  After a longish wait, my K3 came back to my QTH,  all the circuits 
had been checked out, upgraded, revamped, firmware fine. I put it on 
the desk, attached my antennas, then went to the 144 MHz band - all but 
expecting to have it work like a dedicated 2 meter repeater rig. No joy, 
still the same confusion in my situation.  (No audio from the speaker, 
can't enable the squelch to cut out the noise with RF turned very far 
up!)  That made me decide to ask for anyone with success in getting this 
one area of the K3 going OK to send me a list of their settings to check 
mine against.
   As is, there are a few too many items to look at, mostly in different 
manuals,  I'm incredibly short on time, right in the danger zone for 
the hurricane season. I'll appreciate a younger soul with an agile brain 
giving me a lot of advice on this, as I attempt to unscramble the 
downloads, printouts, directions on what to do and how to do it for 2 
meters.

Thanks, 73's, from too old to think fast!

Gil,

Be sure your 2 mtr antenna is hooked to the correct bnc.   Push the RX Ant
button so you see PRE.  I used the K3 memory manager to input the freqs and
offsets.  The 2 meter set up doesn't have all the conveniences of a 2 mtr
radio but the receiver is excellent.  The rest of the settings. The same.  2
meters must be on the primary receiver. I have the second receiver option,
but have it shut off on 2 meters.  I have had some suggestions to monitor 2
meters and another band at the same time, but won't go down that path.  I
Have a k2 to monitor lower bands when using the k3 on 2.

[Elecraft] K3 144 MHz module - how to make it work?

2010-05-27 Thread Gil WA5YKK
   An appeal to anyone - I have my 2 meter module installed in my K3, 
but the instruction manual leaves out the steps on how to set the works 
up for repeaters and offsets, tone accesses. Does anyone have any idea 
of where to find a logical sequence of steps to do the job, or is this a 
case of using some digital magic wand?

Thanks for any input.

Please see the FM Operation section in the K3 Owner's Manual.

I believe you will find what you need in the K3 ops manual, not the K144XV 
manual.

I'm sure glad you asked that question, Gil.  I just got my 2m module in

It is a problem as responded by others.  I asked Larry Phipps about it and
he said that the program is Flex radio's that is being used.  They might not
be receptive to a K3 owner.  Flex is now supplying 2 meters so maybe it will
be fixed.

IF you have the new version of SDR configured correctly, and that's the only
thing that changed, then the SDR programmer needs to find/fix the problem.
=-O

Did you have to enter any configuration settings in SDR, or did it pick up
your current ones? In either case check there first.
