Ha! I would venture to say that anyone that says they haven't done this kind of thing would be fibbing. I've blown up lots of stuff: * When I was in high school electronics class, I wired an AC power switch in some long-forgotten transmitter in PARALLEL with the power line instead of

Re: [Elecraft] KAT-500 auto-tuning issue with SSB vs. CW

"It does not make any difference whether he is using RF sensing or not." Don, Since I have trained my KAT500, I had assumed the OP had done that as well. I was thinking that the problem was that the SSB phone transmission was not causing the KAT500 to switch to the memorized tuning

Thanks Michael, Andy, and all for the original thread. It made me focus on proper use of my KPA500 which has really done a great job for me since I acquired it and a KAT500 over the summer. Retitled this message because I do not want to hijack/derail the original conversation. What I want to

Re: [Elecraft] KAT-500 auto-tuning issue with SSB vs. CW

Andy, It does not make any difference whether he is using RF sensing or not. Train the Tuner in AUTO, and then switch to MAN mode. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/19/2018 11:30 PM, ANDY DURBIN wrote: "The OP does not say he is using a K3" I was mistaken. The OP does say he is using a K3S. However, the

Re: [Elecraft] Data troubles

Martin, Please check the "PITCH" setting vs. the mark tone generated by your AFSK software. The K3/K3S contains a very narrow audio filter on the input audio (CONFIG:AFSK TX). If the AFSK TX filter is ON and your software does not match the K3 PITCH you will see the behavior you describe. 73,

I used the AX1 with my K1 on November 15th chasing a SOTA activator in IL, I’m in FL. The AX1 was setup inside a screened in porch on a table top tripod, the K1 was set to 7 watts and tuned up on 20m at 1.1 swr. We made the contact, he gave me 339 RST, I was very surprised and impressed ! The

Sorry. But DATA A is for USB modes like FT8, PSK, etc. RTTY (FSK) is a LSB mode and should use the Sub-Band AFSK A on a K3. Sent from my iPhone ...nr4c. bill > On Nov 19, 2018, at 10:45 PM, Martin Sole wrote: > > Okay, but the K3 book states AFSK A mode can also be used for Audio-shift >

Re: [Elecraft] KAT-500 auto-tuning issue with SSB vs. CW

Thanks very much for all of the helpful and knowledgeable advice! I will do more reading in my Elecraft manuals and Cady books and adjust accordingly. This is a wonderful reflector! The one additional complicating factor for me is that there are so many interfering objects close to my SteppIR
