Hello,
I'm Fausto IK4NMF, owner of K3 # 5826 and P3 # 1612.
It would be possible to have a marker on the P3 corresponding to the frequency
of the notch?
This would make more rapid the notch adjustment.

I'm using the quick memories to store a band in each of the first ten
memories and four per-band memories for each band in M1-M4.
What is the significant of the VFO B display after I press the M-V button?
It now displays 01.TEPR with the 01 flashing while waiting for me to
press 0 - 9 or M1 - M4.
As I read the text, the shall operative words are: Amateur operators
shall ensure that their emissions do not occupy more than 2.8 kHz
centered on each of these center frequencies. This is consistent with
the ruling for each ~2.8kHz wide SSB transmitted signal to be within the
five 2.8kHz

I'm running MMTTY with my K3, interfaced with a SignaLink USB. No
problems receiving or initiating transmission, but ending transmission
is a problem. Entering the \ character in my MMTTY macros stops the

On my K3 I am not getting ALC at all showing on the meter. The signalink
goes into transmit and my K3 goes into transmit. I am showing on my
LP-100A an SWR and power going out to the antenna.
I have the Signalink USB and attempting to use it with my Elecraft K3.

Did you set the K3 to use the rear connector in DATA A mode?

The Owner's manual description of ERR TXF says that it means invalid crystal
filter bandwidth,
The crystal filter selected for TX (with CONFIG:FLTX) is either too narrow
or too wide. You must specify a filter that is 2.7 or 2.8 kHz wide for
CW/DATA/SSB, 6 kHz for AM, and 13.0 kHz for FM).
Found it in the KDVR (separate) docs, not in the K3 manual:
Press the XMIT button before holding AF PLAY, or the PTT button on your mic.

Hi Don. I suspect that *most* rigs do NOT shift the transmit frequency
when changing from USB to CW. My ancient TS-50S does not. But that
has nothing to do with the issue.
The Elecraft K2 and K3 dial always indicate the carrier
Thanks Dick everyone who replied. Making progress. I can now use the ATU and
XMIT without getting an error and able to get a signal out! All the cables for
PC connection should arrive early this week and life will get simpler than

Is there a way to lock the preamp and attenuator functions in the diversity
mode so I only have to hit the preamp to kill both RX preamps or add
attenuation to both channels without hitting the B set?
Thanks!

These are very good discussions. To add a minor note to Mike's warning
at the end, US Federal Government Agency rule changes issued late in the
year [sort of like now] often take some time to appear in the Fed Reg.
They take vacations around this time too. Patience here will be a
virtue.
Mike,
I actually was responding to a statement made in a post saying that most
transceivers shift the TRANSMIT frequency. If there are any that do, I
believe they are in the minority.
With the K3, if 5 memories are used for 60 meters, one can set channel
hopping, but that also makes it easy
Heh. Those of us above a certain (ham) age (more than my 35 years of ham
life) will remember when some HF activity was based around crystal
operations, not wherever we chose to park. It doesn't seem TOO long ago
either, looking back. A VFO for transmit was less common.
And Don, using the A/B
Well I did the TX gain calibration. Any other ideas? It can take 10-15
seconds to get the full power out. I thought solid state amps were

They are. There's nothing in the KPA500 that can cause a delay in gain
ramping up, so it *must* be in the drive from the K3. And that, as far as I
know, is always a TX Gain calibration problem.

Do you have the mic gain set so it provides 5 to 7 bars on the ALC
meter? If not, you are not driving the audio hard enough and the power
creep you are experiencing is normal for that situation - with low
audio, the K3 will power hunt to try to bring the power output up to

the receiver carrier frequency. On
