I finished the SSCW on 40 and while in QSK noticed my own echoes. I thought
that the K3's QSK or sidetone had weirded out and was confused and bummed out
about it until I listened on a 2nd receiver and figured out that it was my own
echoes, although I didn't believe what I was hearing. I've
That would be from me… Amazingly, this was on 80 meters, and was heard all over
the bay area up into central CA. At times the “echo” was louder than the direct
signal!
There are at least two recordings from that event. Very strange, and extremely
interesting. While it was ongoing, both 40 and
over the
weekend when I saw my TX signal in the P3 without the P3TXMON.
Thanks for the info Al.

Hi Bud,
I could see this these days, but it was my signal coming back from
around the Earth when transmitting on 21 MHz. It was a good
propagation with K=1 and SFI=121. I could hear it too.

This has been mentioned before but - if you want to consistently
see your own signal (for adjusting audio, compression, Etc.)
Here's how:
Transmit a SSB signal into - say, a dummy load - and while in
transmit mode, do a reset on the P3. ( I have one of the function
keys set for a handy RESET.)
I wonder if this phenomenon could be related to N1MM+. I have never seen
this happen before (without N1MM+ running). I was using N1MM+ logging with a
lot of functions running. That might explain the delay. Interesting.

The K3 is supposed to send a command to the P3 to tell it whether it is
in transmit or receive mode. Apparently sometimes that isn't happening
for some reason. It could be an intermittent RS-232 connection between
the K3 and the P3 or perhaps some software running on a PC is

I noticed this weekend that occasionally during transmit instead of the scan
freezing in place it would continue scanning showing only my transmit signal
with only that signal appearing in the black waterfall.
I don't have the P3TXMON. It never did this before.
