[Elecraft] CW Paddle for K2

2015-12-23 Thread Dauer, Edward
Seeking suggestions about a CW iambic paddle for the K2. The latest posts I found in the archives go back to 2008. Anyone have experience they could share with paddles since then? I would like something with less mass than a Bencher, to keep the rig portable, but one that won’t walk across

Ted, I built, use, and am very happy with the KK2B paddle from americanmorse.com - it is small but heavy enough that it needs no chasing across the desk. I use mine with a K3, KX3, and SoftRock Ensemble RXTX here at home via a homebrew switch, in tandem with a Begali Signature. That KK2B is

[Elecraft] P3 Turn on Blinding Flash

2015-12-23 Thread Steve Ellington
Just wondering: My P3's 12v DC comes from the K3. First I turn on my power supply then the K3. The P3 comes on automatically as per the setting. When the P3 comes on, the LCD display is like a flash cube! BRIGHT. Then it dims down to my normally low brightness setting. To me it seems like this

Ted, If you want to stay truly portable you might want to check into the "KXPD1-K2 Mounting Bracket"; I think that they are still available from Elecraft. It uses the K2 as the weight to hold a KXPD1 paddle so there is plenty of weight without needing to have heavy paddles. You can see them

If you have a KX3 with the 4-meter module installed (KX3-4M), you might be interested in an upcoming firmware release that corrects a problem with low power output on this band on some KX3s. The new firmware will be posted as beta on our website later today. If you'd like to test it right away,

Hello Elecrafters, If you are going to take the new KIO3B, and existing KIO3 board becomes redundant,  I would like to take KIO3 Audio I/O module E850236.  It is just a small piece of PCB and can be shipped easily in a padded envelope by airmail. Please reply off-the-list with your price. 73

Good enough. I'm not going to worry about it. It's just that most things like TVs etc. don't do that and you'd think such a surge wouldn't be healthy. 73 to all. Steve N4LQ On Wed, Dec 23, 2015 at 6:21 PM, W5RDW wrote: > Mine has done that since day one. I never gave it

Bill, I do have the same setup that you have (K-Line), but have been looking at the Expert amps. The user manuals http://www.expertlinears.com/products.html do have the information to wire a cable to interface the K3(S) with the amp. They apparently have someone that will wire a cable up for

I've not used the SPE amps. Basic interfacing should be like any third-party amplifier. For full integration, a la KPA500, check the manual to see if it will decode band data or do RF-sensed band switching. If not, you'll have to switch amplifier bands manually. Maybe another responder will know.
