I down loaded the Beta 2.46 version with no glitches. I haven't noticed so far any problems created by it. However, when using the Noise Gate function, after quieting the back ground noise, in between words I hear a crackling or static sound in the headset. I haven't spoke with someone yet

Re: [Elecraft] Re: K3 Noise Gate Function

Roy, The crackling happened here too when I first tried the noise gate but it stopped when I turned the threshold a bit higher. I assumed it was background noise breaching the threshold and a sign I hadn't got the setting right. 73 to all Geoff G3UCK - Original Message - From:

According to the manual, it should be an NPO with markings of 2R7, 3, 3.3, or 3R3.  The picture shows one of those round NPO caps.  I can't find it.    I do have a very very small, pillow-shaped NPO marked 2.7C.  It's blue, not dark green.  It does not have a black mark on top.  The markings do

Re: [Elecraft] K3: Separate monitor level for phones/speaker ?

As a side-note; when I turn on SPKR+PH, the right-side of my phones goes quiet - receive audio moves to left only. Is this normal/expected?? Yes, if SPKRS=1 which should be the case if you are using the internal speaker. This forces mixing of all audio to the left (monophonic) channel. The

Re: [Elecraft] K2 Low/No pwr out on SSB except 80 and 40m

Stewart, There is no band dependency in the KSB2, so your problem is most likely associated with your filter setting for SSB FL1, particularly the USB BFO setting. While the settings given in the KSB2 manual are usually a good starting point, they are not optimum for any one particular set

Michael, Sorry to report that the K1 does not have any sleep or hibernation state - it should always be 'ready to go' as long as it is powered on. What do you do to recover once the problem condition is reached? Behavior of that nature *could* be the result of a poor solder connection that
