I recall that there was a minor modification that was needed to use a W2 sensor
with the P3. I'm not sure if it still is; maybe it has been incorporated in new
sensors.

I use this 4-port manual LAN switch, which can support up to 4 sensors:
I have three. I built an electronic switch to automagically switch the
lines basis the band output. Video switch ICs.

I have decent results with WIN10 audio out set very low level. This allows Lin
In to be set to around 10 and gives reasonable resolution.

No slight to Joe, who knows what he's talking about, but why not use Jim's
suggestion.
I don't use any of the imaginary modes, but I do use VOX exclusively on RTTY and
PSK. I do wish VOX gain was remembered by mode, however. Request #39.

In that case it's probably statistically slightly more likely that a CAT

than whatever bit stream went across the USB to turn RTS off. One would be

And the ability to monitor amp-hours consumed is more than just a gee-whiz

Nick,
Yes, the K3S connects directly to USB, but inside the K3S is an FTDI USB
to serial converter. It has the RTS and DTR signals and they are
properly routed to the K3S. The RS-232 circuits in the K3S are retained
just like as they were with the K3.

You should really do what Joe suggested. It is highly unlikely that RFI
would ONLY affect the one CAT command. It more likely is some kind of
timing entanglement which will be difficult to diagnose.
DO try what Joe said:

I forgot to add: built-in tilt-stand for 3-point placement on rough surfaces,
and a form factor that allows for rapid-deployment, HT-style operation with

Stop using CAT Commands for PTT! Instead set CONFIG:PTT-Key to
RTS-OFF and use RTS. WSJT-X supports PTT Method = RTS by setting
the PTT Port the same as the CAT Port.

Hi Arthur,
I'm not sure if anyone will be videoing Don's talk (I'm just an interloper).
You might ask the hamfest organizers.
Regarding the KX2's optimizations applicable to SOTA, here's the short version:
Small size, low current drain, long battery life, high power output, 9-band
coverage,
The other thing, too, is if your antenna is just relatively close in
proximity to your shack, it won't matter how well balanced your feedline
is; you may still end up with cables inside your house that are resonant at
or near the frequency where you're transmitting, or at least near enough to
John,
The first step to solving RF-in-the-shack problems is to work on your
antenna system. Better common mode chokes on your feedline(s).
See the information by Jim Brown K9YC at
http://audiosystemsgroup.com/RFI-Ham.pdf.
If you still have problems after taking those measures, then use

Two things: one is to go through the usual steps around keeping RF out of
the shack. There are a lot of resources around this online regarding
baluns, "ugly baluns" and so-on.
The other thing I've done is exactly as you've said: several turns of
computer cables through ferrite. Watch your cable

When I transmit (using MSK144), the transmit stays on after the transmission
is complete causing spillover into the next sequence. This happens
randomly.
Anybody have any suggestions as to how to fix this?
