[Elecraft] Obstinate email systems!

Hi Folks, I must have sent this announcement a dozen times with each of them getting bounced back to me. Now three of them have landed on the Reflector. Well it is better for at least one to get through than for none. I'll figure this out when my life is less hectic. Hopefully in a

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

Since I am off tomorrow I should be able to check into both nets. At least I can TRY to check in. I'll attempt with the K1 first on 20M with 5W and switch to the K2/100 if necessary. This will be my first Elecraft QNI since I first got my K2 last year! Looking forward to hearing everyone

RE: [Elecraft] KSB2 misbehavior

Thanks for the replies to my earlier post - can someone confirm that when cycling through SSbC from 1-1 to 4-1 what the states of the three compressor pins COMP0/COMP1/COMP2 are please? They start all high for SSBC 1-1, then COMP2 goes low, then COMP2 + COMP1, until all three are low for

Re: [Elecraft] Recommendation for a 200 Watt SWR/Wattmeter?

Hi Thomas, I'm very happy with my Diamond 600N, which I chose after reading the reviews on eham.com. You might want to read them yourself. The Diamond offers a lot of flexibility with three power ranges and a separate vhf/uhf input. In any case, do get an analog meter. It will be much

Re: [Elecraft] Recommendation for a 200 Watt SWR/Wattmeter?

I would normally agree with you about the analog display John, and that's why my LP-100 digital wattmeter project has a bargraph analog display as well as numerical readout, and it is MUCH faster than an analog meter... fast enough to follow voice peaks. The LP-100 has 36 bar segments, and

[Elecraft] CW using CAT in MixW

I just finished the KIO2 module. I tried sending CW using the KY command in HyperTerminal and it works fine. In MixW I tried sending CW via CAT command and it doesn't work. PTT, however, does work. I do have the CW via CAT command checkbox selected in options. I'm using the latest MixW program.

Re: [Elecraft] CW using CAT in MixW

Hi Kevin - yes, MixW can send CW directly with KY commands - I've played with it in the past - but - it's been so long ago that I don't remember the details! As I recall it was a matter of getting the correct syntax in the cw messages. Stay with it, it will work! HNY - 73 -- Don N4HH -

[Elecraft] Re: Ether Nets and Interferrence, redux

After returning from a rather long hiatus from ham radio, I discovered an obscene amount of interference on the ham bands. I later learned that it was largely the result of 6 Ethernet'ed computers in the house with cat 5 wiring running all over, and 3 runs going through the ham shack. In

[Elecraft] 10 meters on K1 - component values

Hi everyone, I've finished (for now) my experiments in getting 10 meters on my K1. It seems to be working pretty well, both on receive and transmit. I have it up to about 4.5 watts output. I'm sure that can still be improved but I've decided to give it a rest for now. Here are all the

Happy new year all! I am looking at the PLL Frequency Stability at 7182 kHz sheet which says Alternately insert the internal counter probe into TP1 (VCO) and TP3 (PLL reference oscillator) and make sure they indicate the same frequency (in the 12 mHz range). Here are my frequencies: TP1: 12092.59

[Elecraft] BL1 Stupid Question

I have a dumb question. I have a BL1. It has three connectors in which to make a connection. If I want to use 300 ohm or 450 ohm feedline, which connectors am I supposed to use? The connectors are marked 1, GND and 2. Would I use the same connectors for a dipole versus a loop? Thanks, James
