Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 Remote Software Setup

Hi Rick, Thanks for taking the time to write a long and extremely helpful reply to my plea for help. I'm new to networking and port forwarding. Learning by doing here. Great to have an Elmer step up. 73, Larry, K4KGG __ Elecraft

[Elecraft] KPA1500 Remote Software Setup

I am trying to set up the KPA1500 Remote Software to access my KPA1500 from a distant location over the internet. Some questions: Will I be successful using a reserved IP rather than a static IP? The laptop I plan to use as a server is on the same LAN as the KPA1500. When I click the Host

Re: [Elecraft] Will there be a K4

Hi Eric,         I own an early K3, early KAT500, early KPA500, and early KPA1500. Each a great product with great documentation and customer support. I now also own a  FLEX 6600. SDR is the future of radio. The P3 just is not state of the art, and it's poor value for its cost. Its shortcomings

[Elecraft] KPA1500 Delivery Data Point

        Fri Apr 20, late afternoon, I received an email from Elecraft that my KPA will ship in about 10 business days. My order was submitted on the morning of Aug 25, day 2 of orders, with a deposit of $1000. Of course I'm excited. I send this mail to offer hope and a data point for those

Re: [Elecraft] Upgrade to KIO3B?

Don, Joe, Thanks for your replies. I'll stick with my USB sound cards for now. K4KGG, Larry __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help:

[Elecraft] Upgrade to KIO3B?

Group - I'm wondering whether an upgrade to KIO3B would be a step forward or a step backward for me. My current setup, which works FB, uses two outboard USB sound cards. One outboard sound card runs CW Skimmer using a Softrock SDR, K3IF out, and one laptop USB port. The second sound

Re: [Elecraft] A K3 Pileup Wrinkle with CW Skimmer

For those who are so disabled as to require an external crutch to copy their own call and 5NN, it is a simple matter to reverse channels in the sound card (at most it requires a reversing cable) to decode audio on the sub Receiver. Ah, the old CW snobbery! When is the notion that paddle

Re: [Elecraft] Using K3 with Skimmer

Pete - I use Skimmer with my K3. My SDR is a Softrock. Yes, it works on all bands when setup properly. I use LP Bridge to create the virtual COM ports to interface Skimmer and DXLab or N1MM+ simultaneously with the K3. I highly recommend LP Bridge if you're not already using it. The

[Elecraft] K3, KPA500 KAT500 Firmware Upgrades

Group - My K3, KPA500, KAT500, two USB soundcards and an SDR are all cabled together and playing well. I would like to upgrade the firmware in all 3 K line devices. Is it necessary to completely or partially remove cables before attaching my computer via USB - serial port cable to

Re: [Elecraft] K3, KPA500, KAT500 Firmware Updates

Group - Thanks to all for your replies. I'll try the updates without removing the cables between the devices. K4KGG, Larry __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

Re: [Elecraft] CW Decoding - Your Brain is best

Your brain IS best at CW decoding - but only after you've spent many hundreds of hours training it. You can work CW DX NOW by getting a Keyer and learning one thing in CW - the sound of your callsign. Let CW Skimmer decode for you. It's not as good as your brain, but this setup will

Re: [Elecraft] CW Decoding - Your Brain is best

I respect the hams that have spent many hours developing and improving their CW skills ... until they attempt to discourage hams who choose to come at CW with a different approach. The conjecture that those of us using decoders cause more problems than those audibly decoding is just

Re: [Elecraft] High Sierra in qst

Eric, Group - I own a High Sierra screwdriver antenna purchased in 2001 and used portable on the back of my RV all around the US and Canada. The antenna has needed several new contact springs, but has provided reliable service given regular maintenance. However, my experience with

Re: [Elecraft] K3 Beta 4.42 and LP Bridge

I, too may be having this problem. I upgraded to K3 Beta 4.42 prior to putting my KPA500 in service. I had been using LP Bridge for years with great enthusiasm. Since installing the K3 firmware upgrade, LP Bridge fails and closes each time I attempt to use it to send RTTY with HRD

Re: [Elecraft] New K3 guide by KE7X

KE7X new book is a spectacular addition to K3 documentation. I own K3 S/N 0799. I've followed this list, read and reread the manual, spent many hours with the K3. Fred's explanations of some of the more difficult to understand K3 features are lucid. He uses figures, images text and
