[Elecraft] IF tap?

2012-01-02 Thread Steve KC8QVO
Is there a good place to tap the IF stream for an output? I have a spectrum analyzer and was thinking of running an IF-out to the analyzer, it doesn't matter what frequency if its under a gig. -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/IF-tap-tp7144523p7144523.html

Steve, You did not say which transceiver you have, so we can't really answer except to say that the K3 does have an IF output if you install the KXV3 option. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/2/2012 1:51 PM, Steve KC8QVO wrote: Is there a good place to tap the IF stream for an output? I have a spectrum

Is there a good place to tap the IF stream for an output? Are you asking this about a Wells-Gardner BC-348-R? For some reason, it always seems to help if the applicable radio is identified. :-) Mike / KK5F __ Elecraft mailing list

I figured the radio was implied since I posted in the K2 forum In any event, its a K2 SN 6950. I'm just looking for a constant frequency I can use post-VFO to run through my spectrum analyzer so I can see the band I'm on. -- View this message in context:

Steve, One cannot usually use a spectrum analyzer in situ like you would an oscilloscope - the spectrum analyzer has a 50 ohm input and will load the circuit under test significantly. That is why you need the buffer amplifier. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/2/2012 5:35 PM, Steve KC8QVO wrote: Just

I have programmed FN4 and FN8 as Fred does. I originally did it in an attempt to cut down on any possible long-term wear of the Tap=QSY button but have gotten used to it and prefer using FN4/8. Also, as mentioned, it eliminates the problem that some people have caused by turning the knob

Jim, I don't have a P3, so cannot comment directly on that aspect, but there seems to be some confusion between DATA A and AFSK A in your latest e-mail, which may obscure your message. The mode normally used for PSK and other sound card digital modes is DATA A. DATA A is an upper sideband
