Re: [Elecraft] K3 to Yaesu Quadra Band Data 2 question

I'd like to have my 2nd K3 control the Quadra via the Quadra's Band Data 2 connector. I'm wondering if this is possible, Yes. Note however, there are some issues in using two exciters - particularly the lack of switching for the TF (tuning) output from the Quadra. There are a couple

Additional Quadra information . . . According to a phone conversation I had several years ago with Yaesu Support, the Quadra's INPUT 2 was intended to accommodate a six-meter exciter, not another HF rig. Because of internal changes made by Yaesu during final design planning (literally at the

However, I have received emails from a few K3 owners saying they indeed HAVE successfully used INPUT 2 with a second HF transceiver but none have testified to resolving the issues Joe alludes to below. The Exciter 1/Antenna 1 default is a limitation of the switching in the Quadra that is not

Hi Guys, Wondering if anyone has successfully used a K3 to control a Yaesu Quadra by using the Quadra's Band Data 2 jack? My K3's has been controlling a Quadra via the Quadra's Band Data 1 and it works well. But I'd like to have my 2nd K3 control the Quadra via the Quadra's Band Data 2

The K3 ACC connector appears to provide Band Data and PTT out signals suitable for driving/Controlling the Yaesu Quadra (VL-1000) amplifier. Is it possible to program one of the DIG signal lines (other than DIG0 which is used for FSK input) to work with the Quadra's F-SET output? F-SET is

I asked about a programmable function for low power carrier output for the K3 to act in the same manner as the Kenwood TS-480. The '480 can provide 1 - 100 Watts of carrier when on any mode and the PF button is pressed. The power level is set in the same manner as the normal power setting and

Hi Dave One nice feature that i like in the K3 is the built in 2 tone generator. Maybe at some time in the future this feature could be expanded to incorporate a variable Audio tuning pulser feature with several selectable tones. A tuning pulser with a variable duty cycle would be nice.
