Re: [Elecraft] K3 Strange Power Output Problem

I had this same problem operating split while listening to 18.150 and transmitting on 16.298.5 the K3s would show zero output. However operating split from 20 meters to 16.298.5 worked. Yes I have the KBPF3, The other freq’s we used split worked fine. Dale, K9VUJ/AFA5DJ

Hi Bob, Thanks, I'll try your ideas. We have a year to get ready for our next NSS operation... NSS was a Field Day style operation with AB-577 towers, all of the NSS towers and buildings were demolished 20 years ago except for three 600 foot towers that are all in the red zone of a

Don, I'm puzzled you when you say "If it were a K3 problem, that aliasing would also be happening with other data modes as well. Other soundcard data modes do not have a problem with a TUNE at 1000 Hz" I can reproduce this problem with my K3 with MMVARI on other data modes. I have tried

Alan, How high is the input level to the K3 Line IN? I am wondering if you are driving the transformers in the audio in slightly into saturation. Try lowering the soundcard output and increasing the LINE gain. 73, Don W3FPR On 5/14/2018 3:05 AM, Alan Ibbetson wrote: Don, I'm puzzled you

This problem has been reported in the past, and is known to be a K3 problem.   Just choose a slightly different  audio frequency for the tune up.     It does show up with other sound card modes. As far as I know ALL K3's have this "problem". My K3 (sn 5540 or so, not at home and don't remember

It's been about 2-1/2 years since I got back on HF and purchased the K3S and P3 at Foxboro from Eric. I just don't know what to say. In 58 years of playing radio I still smile every time I turn the rig on. It has performed flawlessly and I am amazed (even as an EE) at the features it has.

Thanks for this, Gordon. I failed to search properly and missed that previous thread. Elecraft ought to at least acknowledge and document the issue even if they don't fix it. I did some googling and I now see that this is a well known and widespread problem. It seems to have a well known set
