Re: [Elecraft] P3 Acting Wonky
Jim, Check the BNC cable between the K3 IF Out and the P3. At the P3 end, make sure it is connected to IF IN. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/23/2021 4:48 PM, James Bennett via Elecraft wrote: Hope someone can help me out on this one. I just moved into a new home, relocating my station from CA to ID. Got the K3/P3/KAT500/KPA500 all hooked up. All was working fine at the previous QTH. Now, the P3 is not showing me any signals. The “signal level” is below S0. I have an IC-705 that I key up at 10 watts into an inside dipole. It registers 60 over S9 on the K3 meter, but not a trace of signal showing on the P3. The frequency display on the P3 is spot-on with what the K3 is set to. If I turn on marker A on the P3 then tap to QSY, the K3 obeys and follows. That kinda tells me the cabling between the two is OK. So, why do I not see any signal at all on the P3? Pilot error? Could be, but where…? __ 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
