There have been some recent changes to the Unified Microsystems device. Contact the owner before ordering to ensure compatibility with the K3. Mine is now working properly and I'm very satisfied with it. 73 jim ab3cv On Sat, Dec 26, 2015 at 11:55 AM, Ed wrote: > I am using a "Unified Microsyst

I am using a "Unified Microsystems BCD-10". I believe that it has been replaced with the "BC-14. It is designed to convert the BCD output to binary and does what you are looking for. http://www.unifiedmicro.com/ Ed __ Elecraft mail

One correction. The CONFIG:KIO3 setting can change the band outputs to specify which transverter you are using instead of which HF/6M band you are using. See page 19 of the manual. I am using the band outputs as input to a Arduino based homebrew antenna switch with on problems. 73 Bill AE6JV

Charles, There are no CONFIG settings related to the band data outputs. What are the characteristics of the inputs of your external device? The K3 band data outputs have pullup resistors to provide +5 volts or zero volts to an external device. If that device requires +12 volts and zero volts,

hello all and merry xmas! For various reasons I need to interface an external device with Band Data from my k3-100 via the ACC port. The cable I have is sending the correct pin signals to the device, which expects Yaesu Band Data compatible protocol. AFAIK and can verify on the web Elecraft 0123

I think you need Microham Station Master. It will do need all you want + much more. IMHO K3 already does enough. Ignacy -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-and-band-data-future-tp7567293p7567308.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.co

[Elecraft] K3 and band data future?

2012-12-17 Thread Brian Alsop
I'm wondering if others might benefit from an additional bit being added to the ABCD band data making it ABCDE. This could permit: 1- 32 choices (programmable by the firmware program?) 2- phone/cw antenna automatically being switched or another antenna being switched to at a certain cutoff fre
