Re: [Elecraft] K3S & 2m Internal Transverter Calibration ProblemUsing External Reference

Are you seeing the 800Hz error in both band segments (144 and 146)? Looking at the schematics, there is an adjustment for each LO, but this must be a factory adjustment as there is no mention of them in manuals. Good to contact support. All would be interested in the resolution. 73 de Ben

Re: [Elecraft] K3S & 2m Internal Transverter Calibration Problem Using External Reference

Ben, The K144XV & Phase lock calibration steps have already been performed. The problem arises when using an external reference oscillator. Elecraft support emailed. Thanks, John WA1EAZ > On Aug 11, 2020, at 7:14 PM, w4sc wrote: > > Read the following: > > K144XV manual pp20 > K144XV

[Elecraft] K4 Questions

I just saw the presentation Eric gave on the K4. It is really impressive. However, I've never been able to get the answer to a few questions. First, is the pan presentation fixed as to frequency span or can the frequency span be adjusted; I typically use 25-50 KHz on CW or less on data modes.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S & 2m Internal Transverter Calibration Problem Using External Reference

Read the following: 1) K144XV manual pp20 2) K144XV Reference Oscillator Phase Lock Option Manual. Pp 11 Once the K3S 49MHz oscillator is calibrated, leave alone. The LOs (plural,,,116MHz and 118MHz) are locked to the 10MHz reference (which, depending where you are in the 2M band). If there

Hi John, In case you are only interested in 2 meters you can and have an accurate readout on the band Be aware that all hf + 6m will shift as well and will no longer be accurate. 73 Henk Henk On Tue, Aug 11, 2020 at 8:28 PM +0200, "John Stengrevics" wrote: Hi Henk,

Hi Henk, Thanks for that info. That does make me think I could adjust the offset on the Config menu to account for the 800 Hz, no? 73, John WA1EAZ > On Aug 11, 2020, at 2:18 PM, Henk de Vries wrote: > > Hi john, > > Correction of the frequency for HF/6 takes place at synthesizer/DSP level

Re: [Elecraft] K3S & 2m Internal Transverter Calibration Problem Using External Reference

Hi john, Correction of the frequency for HF/6 takes place at synthesizer/DSP level (Elecraft has not answered my questions where exactly) and takes the frequency deviation of the main TCXO into account. So this does not correct the TCXO itself. The 2 meter K144RFLK locks directly to the

[Elecraft] K3S & 2m Internal Transverter Calibration Problem Using External Reference

I am using an external reference to lock the K3S' frequency. The resulting frequency is 100% accurate on the low bands and on 6 meters. However, on 2 meters, the frequency is approximately 800 Hz low. The manual states that using an external reference will lock the frequency but that it will
