Re: [Elecraft] [K3] split mode apparently not working with WSJTX JT9.
I use DXLabs Commander as the CAT controller for WSJTX https://picasaweb.google.com/k5oai.sam/Digital#6013677746237592786 you have to set the K3 into Split as well as check the WSJTX software for [ ] Split TX On 5/15/2014 8:16 AM, Larry Lopez wrote: I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. WSJTX does not seem to be setting VFO B frequency with the K3 in split mode and with WSJTX in split mode. Many web pages sat that in split mode WSJTX moves the split fequency around in 500 Hz increments so that WSJTX can cover the 4K Hz width of the combined JT65/JT9 allocation. The 6K KHz audio filter seems to be working fine for receive. I just never see the WSJTX software setting the split frequency. -- GB 73 K5OAI Sam Morgan __ 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] [K3] split mode apparently not working with WSJTX JT9.
Thank you for helping. I have set K3 to split, the TX arrow points down. I have set WSJTX for Split in the configuration check box. I have no controller, WSJTX talks to K3 directly using elecraft USB serial cable (from elecraft elivered Monday). WSJTX cat control gets and sets frequency correclty on main vfo. but I don't see anything happening on VFO B frequency when I select 3 K Hz.

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] split mode apparently not working with WSJTX JT9.
to get to their Help file either hit F1, or tselect Online Helo from the drop down Help menu from the WSJTX Online Help http://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx-doc/wsjtx-main-toc2.html#TUT_MAIN under Transceiver Setup: Bandwidth and Frequency Setting Many SSB transceivers have a fixed-width Tx filter that will not pass audio frequencies higher than about 2700 Hz. WSJT-X takes care of this by offering a Split Tx mode, receiving with VFO A and transmitting with VFO B. Under CAT control WSJT-X offsets the Tx dial frequency (VFO B) in 500 Hz steps, adjusting the generated audio frequency so that it always falls in the range 1500 – 2000 Hz. With CAT and Split Tx enabled on the configuration screen and your transceiver set to Split mode, this frequency control will be handled automatically. If your transceiver has only a standard SSB filter you won’t be able to use more than about 2.7 kHz bandwidth. You can still have all of the JT9 sub-band and part of the JT65 sub-band available on screen, however. On 20m, say, set dial frequency (VFO A) to 14.0774 and the JT9 JT65 dividing line at 1600 Hz. JT9 signals in their conventional sub-band will then appear at 1600 – 2600 Hz, while JT65 signals will be below 1000 Hz. Of course, you might prefer to concentrate on one mode at a time, setting your dial frequency to (say) 14.076 for JT65 and 14.078 for JT9. Present conventions have the nominal JT9 dial frequency 2 kHz higher than the JT65 dial frequency, and the checkbox labeled +2 kHz, just below the Band selector, makes the appropriate settings easy.

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] split mode apparently not working with WSJTX JT9.
I just set mine up like yours using the K3 CAT https://picasaweb.google.com/k5oai.sam/Digital#6013717488489012674 here's the sequence I use to make it work for me: Set K3 to TX DATA DATA A tune VFOA to say 14.076 double tap AB (to set VFO A B to all the same settings) now HOLD AB (to get into split) now with WSJTX Configuration Station [X] check enable CAT Rig: Elecraft K3/KX3 CAT port: (set to your usb port) Serial rate: 38400 Handshake: None DTR and RTS boxes [ ] not checked Data button Data bits: 8 Stop bits: 2 [X] Split Tx checked I use Polling interval (s): 5 click OK (at this point you might want to exit and restart WSJTX to be sure the setting were saved) after restarting WSJTX try clicking on some place in the watter rall and watch your VFO B move around. this tells you it worked! gud luck -- GB 73 K5OAI Sam Morgan On 5/15/2014 1:02 PM, Sam Morgan wrote: to get to their Help file either hit F1, or tselect Online Helo from the drop down Help menu from the WSJTX Online Help http://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx-doc/wsjtx-main-toc2.html#TUT_MAIN under Transceiver Setup: Bandwidth and Frequency Setting Many SSB transceivers have a fixed-width Tx filter that will not pass audio frequencies higher than about 2700 Hz.

I'll try it tonight.
