[Elecraft] KX3 Anomaly

I am having an unexpected response from my KX3 and wonder if it portends some failure: in CW mode, when I hold the CMP/PITCH button down I hear the tone, the display briefly reads 500 Hz, then displays HIGH CUR...this doesn't seem right. Comments, inspiration, whatever? Bert N4CW/K1IMI

...can't use the serial port to key the KX3 in similar fashion!). Other'n that, it's both fun and a challenge to operate QRP in a contest using a KX3. Thanks, Elecraft! Bert, N4CW __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net

Re: [Elecraft] Using SB 200 with KX-3

Ken, Try driving your SB-200 with just 10-Watts output from your FT-897D. RF is rf, no matter the source for such purposes! It would help if you had an accurate Wattmeter to see the results! I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Bert, N4CW In a message dated 2/7/2013 11:56:53 A.M

[Elecraft] KX3 N1MM Error Message Refined

and found that it was set to CW mode. This is happening with the N1MM configuration set to SO1V... So the KX3 seems to be doing its thing okay; the problem appears in how all that information coming down the USB cable from the rig is being handled by the software. 73, Bert, N4CW

[Elecraft] KX3 Mode Status and N1MM

the error message is displayed. If I change the mode to AFSK-A, or any mode other than PSK-D, the error message goes away. Now you'd think that while I was in SSB/USB mode, that the PSK-D setting information wouldn't be sent to N1MM... Am I doing something wrong? Bert, N4CW

Re: [Elecraft] New Output Power Issue, and a new question

, down, down to 14.something when I let up on the hand key. I kept the key down just 15 or 20 seconds, not wanting to tempt fate!!! Power output stayed at 100W throught the procedure. H I'm satisfied with those readings: everything works just fine! Bert, N4CW

[Elecraft] KX3 Turns Itself On

into the shack to find the KX3 on... I thought I'd forgotten to shut it off. Just in case, I checked to see if the Alarm was set on in the KX3. It wasn't. Darn if the KX3 didn't turn itself on tonight too! So what did I miss? I think I read all the instructions...more than once. Bert, N4CW

[Elecraft] KX3 Power Sense

Watts...fine! Now, if I turn off the KX3, plug in the 13.8 Volt source back into the KX3, and then power on, output is still at 5 Watts. I have to readjust PWR to 10 Watts to get 10 Watts out. Is that the way it's supposed to work, or am I missing a setting somewhere? Bert, N4CW/K1IMI

[Elecraft] KPA500 Power Output

in an earlier posting I noted that at 150W output (in BPSK31), the amp was very inefficient and the fan was pretty loud. If I can't derate the output and I can't run full output, what do I do with the KPA500 in the digital modes? Bert, N4CW
