Re: [Elecraft] K3/P3/Microkeyer hookup

I do not own a Microkeyer but I do have several DigiKeyer II's that I use for FSK and CW. My MicroHam cables are clearly marked where to plug them into a K3/K3S. I move my transceivers around a number of times a year, the markings have made setup quite easy. If you do not have MicroHam

I will add that I only need the DB9 hookup. Microham RS232 to P3 (PC)? Then P3 (TXVR) to K3 RS232 ? I have looked at app notes and past listings and cannot for the life of me get my stuff hooked back up correctly. A bit of guidance would be appreciated. Thank you -- Randy Lake N1KWF 73 Gunn

OM-Power includes TCP/IP support built into the 2000A+ and via an optional control head with the other autotune amps. They use Lantronix XPort. 73, Josh W6XU On 6/19/2017 6:07 AM, Mike va3mw wrote: Another reason to start moving to a LAN based solution as it is so much simpler to share

Another reason to start moving to a LAN based solution as it is so much simpler to share frequency data. If vendors supported it at the box level cabling nightmares start to go away. I'm now running raw socket connections where I can to rs232/ip converters. Mike va3mw > On Jun 18, 2017,

Re: [Elecraft] K3+P3+Microkeyer II

Again, that makes no sense. OM Power supports ELECRAFT directly and provide a pair of serial ports for doing so. No Y cable is necessary (and a bad idea). This is how OM Power describes using their product. It works fine. You're coming up with a workaround for a nonexistent problem. 73,

Re: [Elecraft] K3+P3+Microkeyer II

microHAM has provided "cross brand" support for mixing transceivers and amplifiers for a dozen years or more starting with the original microHAM Band Decoder. Icom has been the default interface for serial (CAT) controls while Yaesu (BCD) has been the default interface for "Band Data" control.

Re: [Elecraft] K3+P3+Microkeyer II

I have no idea where you're getting this idea to interface as if it's a PW-1?? OM Power has supported Elecraft for many years. Why not review the OM Power manual's recommendation before making up an answer? 73 Josh W6XU Sent from my mobile device > On Jun 18, 2017, at 6:37 AM, Joe Subich,

Re: [Elecraft] K3+P3+Microkeyer II

Patch the OM Power between P3 and microham box. TCVR goes to P3 and PC goes to microham. Then select Elecraft and baud rate from the menu. You should immediately see it following frequency on the display. OM Power echoes serial commands through and monitors the data. I don't have your model,

Natale, Put the "Y" cable at the PC connector on the P3. As far as how to set your amplifier, I leave that to others familiar with that amp to answer. 73, Don W3FPR On 6/18/2017 5:45 AM, Natale Borghetti wrote: I have installed K3+P3+Microkeyer II and as result I have all the com ports

Can I use the key line interrupter (KPAK3AUX) between the K3 and the ultrabeam controller? I´m looking for a way to protect the beam( keying while elements are moving) without buying a microham device(rather expensive), or is there another way I could go? 73,Chris-OE5CSP -- View this message in

Re: [Elecraft] K3 + P3 + Microkeyer

If the Ultrabeam controller provides a PTT interrupt circuit you can use the KPAK3AUX Key Line Interrupter to disconnect the Key line in the KPAAUX cable and route Key Out from the K3 through the Ultrabeam controller to the PA Key jack on the KPA-500. 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 6/16/2012 4:31

Re: [Elecraft] K3 + P3 + Microkeyer

You can add as many Y-adapters as needed to the K3 AUX connector. In some of my setups, I have as many as four, due to the number of devices connected to the AUX signals. Just be sure you get Y-adapters that have all 15 pins wired through and none shorted to each other. Ed W0YK Robby,

Hi Guys If we add the K500 to the line up above of K3+P3+MK11, how does the K500 fit in please and will I need any additional cables beyond the KPAK3AUX that I have ordered with the Amplifier? Similarly how does the SteppIR controller then fit in? 73 de Ray G3XLG

Re: [Elecraft] K3 + P3 + Microkeyer

The KPA-500 does not figure in the K3+P3+MKII chain ... As long as you have the DB15HD Y cable (part of the KPAK3AUX cable set), you can connect the KPA-500/K3 AUX cable to one leg and the MK II ACC plug to the other and there will be no issue. If you use the MK II PA PTT output for amplifier

If I remember correctly, microHAM specifically advises *against* connecting like that and doing updates through the microHAM device. It would seem prudent to disconnect your microHAM device and directly connect your P3/K3 combination and effect updates in that manner. Art - N4PJ On Mon, Jun 4,

An RS-232 A/B switch can make that changeover easy - the common of the A/B switch connects to the K3 (or P3) and one side connects to the nicroHam while the other side connects directly to a serial port (or USB to serial adapter). A simple flip of the switch changes it from normal

Re: [Elecraft] K3 + P3 + Microkeyer

I do it that way myself ... each K3 (+P3) has an RS-232 A/B switch on it. The computer serial port has an A/B/C/D switch that connects to each of the A/B switches, the programming cable for the XG3 and for now the LP-100 (but normally my general purpose test port). 73, ... Joe, W4TV On
