You could use a device such as the KD9SV FES "short for Front End Saver" The
Device removes and grounds the receive antenna input during transmit. Yes it is
fast enough for QSK. You can also run your PTT line to your amplifier through
this
device. If the Device fails to work that prevents the
Thanks to Rick, N1RM, and his expertise in tracing circuits, my K3 is back
in FB working order. We found that a switching diode on the bottom
(fortunately) of the RF board had failed. (I think it was D25.). It was a
low cost fix, and with Rick's surface mount skills a replacement was soon
Frank,
My read of your comments is that it is all OK. If you are getting
power out, you're on the air. Nothing to do but operate. Pick some
strong station calling CQ and give him a call. And, see what happens.
There should be nothing else on the rig to fiddle with at this time.

Yes. That's built in, and it's one way we demo the K4 at hamfests.

Line Gain on the radio is typically is set for 30 to 40 using the MIC

to show 4 to 5 bars and then set the PWR value on the radio to

First, let me back up and say that I'm operating with the K3S in
transverter mode on 630m with an external power amp. I've successfully
used CAT control with WSJT-X on a MacBook Pro to tx/rx JT9 and WSPR. My
objective now is to use the K3S in VOX mode with a Windows 10 desktop

Hi all,
Just curious, I haven't seen much of anything on the KX2's here.
My first Elecraft rig and really having a good time learning.

Rich,
I don't think CAT control is necessary in this case, because in this
configuration, all of the tx/rx is on one band (630m) and one frequency
(474.2 kHz, used by JT9, WSPR and other digital modes, unlike HF bands
where they are on different frequencies). I haven't yet found anyone
else
Hi Gordon,
It's a safe bet that there are a thousand or more KX2 owners represented on
this list. There are also many frequenting the KX2/KX3-specific list,

Although several others have had success with VOX, I find the most
reliable is to use PTT via CAT command. Set it in the application and
you will have no problem.
If your problem is related to audio levels, refer to my website

Hi Gordon,I have a KX2 s/n under 250. I'm not a hiker but I operate on the
ocean beaches in WA state and up at Mt Rainier NP. In the field I use the AX1
ant on a camera tripod. Works very well. The only mod was the 2nd harmonic mod
to the transmitter. Excellent portable/field radio!Enjoy 73Jim
Don,
Thanks for the comment.
CAT has always been the PTT method I've used with WSJT-X, and it's been
very successful. It would normally be my first choice.
However, I just ran across this interesting configuration that some
number of 630m ops are using, using other brands of rigs. Since all

Look on the Elecraft site under Support, KX2 enhancements. I hope I have link

I also get excellent results pairing a 39’ vertical with resonant dipoles and
inverted vee’s spread around the yard not far away. Because of the close
proximity and QRO, I have a RF protector/limiter on the vertical.
