[Elecraft] K3 Hanging on mode switch

2021-02-27 Thread Donald Wines
My trusty old K3, SN 123 in operation almost daily since late 2007, and has performed almost flawlessly since. It has been updated regularly with most options and could be considered “almost K3S”. It has been back to the mothership once about 10 years ago for a quick fix due to lightning ESD.

Grant, Something else I've noticed since getting the KXPA100 is the Select knob on the PX3 gets flaky if it's turned too fast. It seems to work fine if you turn it slowly. For instance when setting the Ref Level if the Select control is turned very fast the display just jitters and doesn't change

Grant, Don’t know if it’s normal behavior but my setup is exactly like yours and the behavior is the same. Especially noticeable at a high tuning rate. I bought the KXPA100 from an individual but it had never been used, essentially new. Don, K5DW Sent from my iPad > On Aug 18, 2019, at 1:16

Susan, are you running through an interface? What kind of cable are you using? HRD requires that you use a comm port that is not shared with other processes. I'm running Vista on a Dell laptop with HRD v5/DM780 through a Navigator interface to the K3. Have no problems except as Nick has already

I haven't been on sideband for several months and this past weekend I decided to try to pick up a country or three during the contest. I switched the K3 over to USB on 15M, put the Heil Proset on, turned on VOX and gave a little whistle and nothing happened. Tried PTT with no luck there either.
