Replacement ear pads are available, but the internal wiring is very fragile. I managed to get the replacements on, but broke a wire. After three breaks and four re-solderings, there wasn’t enough wire left to work with, so I bought a new headset. The Koss UR-20 is the same headphones as the

My CM500 certainly has an electret insert and it came with a separate plug-in battery bias pack. Unfortunately the ear pads are starting to deteriorate. Have you had to replace yours? If so, with what? ISTR I read somewhere that new separate pads are not available. 73, Alan. G4GNX --

Re: [Elecraft] T1 Question

Jim, This is an interesting question. Eric and Wayne were authors of the design and updated the schematic (at least according to mine dated 2017). One of them may be able to tell us. The MCU type is listed in the schematic, but without knowing how big the memory block is, it is hard

[Elecraft] K3S Shutdown

I’ve measured the P/S Voltages, I have 14.6 Volts according to the K3S. I am beginning to think it’s the attached Win 10 computer. This afternoon the computer went into sleep mode and the K3S shut down. Maybe that’s it. Vy 73 de BobDJ0RD/WU5T

The specs for the T1 QRP antenna tuner indicate "Tuning times (typical): 2 to 8 seconds for initial tuning; 1 to 2 seconds to re-tune from memory” and "Many tune-ups are saved for fast re-tuning” However, I can’t find any documentation as to how many memories this thing actually has. Does

Re: [Elecraft] [Elecraft-K3] K3 Config and Main Menu Dump?

You're welcome, Mike. With Wayne's permission, I did a copy and paste from the PDF manual into Excel, but that was several yeas ago, so it doesn't include the most recent firmware updates. With my K3S, I keep track of the settings the old fashioned way, by writing them down on a printed copy

Re: [Elecraft] K2/10 (S/N 7967) - SSB voice on transmit issue

John, It sounds like you need to adjust the BFO settings for the FL1 SSB filter. You can do that in receive. It is best if you do that using a visual aid like an audio spectrum analyzer to be able to see the position of the filter passband in the audio spectrum. Spectrogram is one such

Tom, There is/was a program called K3 EZ that let you see and adjust the EQ. A screen shot of each tab could be helpful for what you are doing. I do not have the software anymore, and don't know if it is still available. Maybe someone here has a copy. It was free. -- 73, Carl AB1DD

This is mentioned in the online manual. However there's no suggestion as to how it would interact with an external device. Obviously some code inside the K4 would need to do some signalling, perhaps written by an approved ISV. How would it physically transmit commands? USB, Ethernet? I don't see

Hello Elecraft Community, I have recently built the K2/10 and have enjoyed listening to the receiver. I have more recently added the KSB2 SSB adapter and have noticed my voice is either very high-pitched or low-pitched on an external receiver while using a 50-ohm dummy load. After spending

The easiest way to do this is simply to save the preferred/standard configuration using K3 utility. And after other fingers have been at the radio, restore that saved configuration. There’s no reason to have to look through individual menu settings. Grant NQ5T > On Nov 2, 2020, at 9:57 AM,

[Elecraft] K3 Config and Main Menu Dump?

Is there a way to read back the K3 Config and Main Menu settings into a spreadsheet or CSV file?  I have two club K3 stations that occasionally experience some changes to the menus.  It would be nice to be able to quickly verify what the changes were, and if necessary restore the menus. Thanks
