Re: [Elecraft] [KX3] Lithium Battery Video

I agree with all of that. The ability to store lots of energy in a very small form factor and deliver it quickly as needed (low internal resistance) has been and will continue to be an enabler for many of the electronic marvels we pursue (including portable electronics, electric cars, and

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 speaker/headphone question

That's the good engineering practice to protect the output stage from shorts. In that situation, 8 ohms will get more power than 4 ohms. It's the classic "maximum power transfer theorem," where, when the LOAD is variable, you get max power when the load Z is equal to the source Z. So it comes

Re: [Elecraft] KX3/Macbook contact logging options...

You can get WSJT-X contacts into MLDX automatically by using JTBRIDGE, free software that works very well. Unfortunately, it does not do FLDIGI interface. Jim Bennett / W6JHB Folsom, CA Jim Bennett Folsom, CA > On Feb 7, 2017, at 7:30 PM, Brian ve3bwp Pietrzyk wrote: >

[Elecraft] KX3/Macbook contact logging options...

Enjoying portable QRP phone with my new KX3. Recently began using WSJT-X and Fldigi (for the declining solar cycle) with a Signalink USB/MacBook. Was using MacLoggerDX for logging phone contacts and now looking for an easy way to log my digital contacts directly from Fldigi and WSJT to

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 speaker/headphone question

Hi Ron, Stan was asking about the KX2 which to my knowledge has no 2M/4/M module available. Wish it did :-). None the less a spectacular rig. Cheers, Glen VK1FB On Wednesday, February 8, 2017, Ron D'Eau Claire wrote: > To answer your question, there are 10 ohm resistors in

Re: [Elecraft] KX2 speaker/headphone question

To answer your question, there are 10 ohm resistors in the phones line - one in each channel. So you are losing more than half the audio power in the resistors. (On the plus side, you'll still have an audio output working even if you accidentally short the audio to ground!) If you are not

Yes, saw it too, really good reporting. There was a very good [in the "real engineering facts" department] article some time ago, prior to the Samsung debacle. It was aimed primarily at electric vehicle batteries, and touched a bit on large lithium-chemistry batteries for the home. Tesla's
