[Elecraft] SDRplay and Win4K3

I've been testing the latest version of SDRplay RSP2 ( http://www.sdrplay.com/rsp2/. I've been using the original SDRplay for a few months now and like the 2mhz spectrum display using my K3's IF out and Win4K3suite. Win4K3 (http://va2fsq.com/ ) has added support for the new release SDRPlay RSP2

[Elecraft] NPOTA LOCATION

Guys, it's time to reset your LoTW Location in your logging program. I and others are getting NPOTA credits for parks during the ARRL RTTY RU contest last weekend. They don't count, but your location info may be wrong when uploaded to LoTW. Sent from my iPhone ...nr4c. bill

[Elecraft] FOR SALE: KX3 and PX3

Hello everyone. It is with reluctance I have decided to sell my KX3 and PX3. Both are in like-new condition and both were factory built. I will sell them together or separately. I have a 100% 500+ feedback on eBay as both a seller and a purchaser. Here is what I am selling: Included with

Re: [Elecraft] KIO3B RTTY AFSK problem with Transmit

Use AFSK A mode for RTTY. DATR A can also be made to work, but my experience with AFSK A is much better. FSK D does not use the sound card for transmission. Make sure your computer is producing enough output drive. On my Mac I need to go to System Preferences -> Sound and raise the output

Re: [Elecraft] KIO3B RTTY AFSK problem with Transmit

Dan, It sounds like you are doing things right. What is the Speaker slider on the computer set to? Open the playback controls - normally set it to about 75%. The "meter" in the computer soundcard display will not tell you the whole story. Go to the Playback Controls to see the slider

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 Running hot on 20m

OT: but I am going to add a couple cpu fans to the heat sink of my KXPA100 which will be installed under the backseat of my truck. That will ensure a little more cooling. The seat sets down on top of the fins so the fans will be positioned to feed from one end. The enclosure will be drilled

[Elecraft] KIO3B RTTY AFSK problem with Transmit

Did RU this past weekend and could not get KIO3B to XMIT-Receive is fine using MMTTY and N1MM. Ended up using my Signal Link for XMIT. Here is what I know. NO line in or out connections on back of radio (per earlier email I saw) Radio control, frequency, etc. work fine-just updated firmware USB

[Elecraft] K-POD CABLE LENGTH

Hello Everyone, I would like to know what is the maximum length of cable on a K-POD, we can use. The reason is that I want to use it from another room in my house...of course the K3S is in one room, and sometimes I want to listen on the radio...remote...with Ham Radio Deluxe.in another

[Elecraft] Tuneup, Rescue, Build your K2, K1, KX1, others

Hello, Does your K2 need a tuneup? Have you always wanted an Elecraft? A KX1, K1, K2, K3, whatever? I build and service them all! See what my clients have said about my construction and service work at http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/6768 Photos of the popular "Twins" -- the KPA100 and

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 Running hot on 20m

Optionally, one can replace the internal fans altogether (the heat sink is not sufficient for passive cooling under all conditions obviously). If your installation is static, or relatively static, you can duct cooling air from some place where the noise is "OK" to a properly located input. OR,

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 Running hot on 20m

With an adequate sized heat sink, one could build a legal-limit solid state amplifier with no fan whatsoever, but the most Hams want physically smaller equipment even if it requires cooling fans. It's not bad engineering. It is good engineering coming up with a product the buyer wants. I know

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 Running hot on 20m

I wrote an article on fan noise including in amplifiers. See http://www.eham.net/articles/38328. Ignacy, NO9E -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/KPA-500-Running-hot-on-20m-tp7625577p7625633.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Elecraft] KX1 low output on 7mHz

Recently finished the build of my KX1 and noticed that the power output on 7 mHz is lower than on 14 mHz. The manual states that it is typically the opposite, with 14 mHz 0.2 - 0.3W lower. I checked the voltage across a dummy load with my scope, converting P-P to RMS and the using the 50 ohm load

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-500 Running hot on 20m

Mike, I do a lot of RTTY and other sound card modes with my K3-KPA500 pair. I have the amp go to 70c sometimes, that is when the HIGHEST speed fan kicks in, NOT 65c. Not a problem, many RTTY contests and still works fine! The room ambient temp has a lot to do with the temp of the

Re: [Elecraft] kx3 receiver versus K3s receiver

To eliminate problems caused by the I/Q decoding and reduce costs, KX3S will include direct sampling. Please post April 1st. Ignacy, NO9E -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/kx3-receiver-versus-K3s-receiver-tp7625537p7625629.html Sent from the Elecraft

Re: [Elecraft] K3 DATA A Mode not working (Resolved)

Thanks Barry - K3NDM, for the assistance. Turns out WINDOWS 10 updates and not only shut off my sound card but changed one of the com ports on my Navigator.  Goes to show that you can't assume anything will be the same after an update.73,Bill - W0BBI
