Hello Eric,
As mentioned by other group members, this topic appears from time to time. I
am the one in this forum who insist on the NR of K3 is not as good as my big
ICOMs.
I eventually find the answers for myself. I am a 99% SSB operator and my ears
can still hear above 12Khz. As a
Fred,
~90% of the really good ham apps initially written for Windoze runs in
Linux, sometimes much faster than in its native environment. The only
problem is to know HOW...
This list isn't a good place to advocate Linux (or any other OS),
however there is a general rule:
1. Try
2. If does
Sam,
I created an Elecraft folder in my directory and copied there the
utilities. Good idea is to use a file manager, I prefer Krusader because
it is a twin panel manager similar to Total Commander for Windows or
Norton Commander for DOS. This allows you to work with archives in the
same way
I'm not sure if I'm hearing a spurious emission or not. As an example
(and I know this may sound weird to some folks - that's just the way I
am ;) ):
The following paragraph is *not* the problem - it's what the problem
sounds like to me.

Johnny,
I agree with both you and Eric.
On CW I like the NR, APF and notch filter. Overall no complaints on CW.
Since I have had my K3's my complaint is with the NR on SSB. I agree with you
about the NR on the Icoms. Wish the K3 operated similarly on SSB. I find the
Icom NR less fatiguing with
Number 4 under OPERATION/TRANSMITTING on page 11, When driving the KPA500
with an Elecraft K3, use the K3's per-band power control to set the
amplifier output just below the desired peak output on each band.
That requires that you use the AUX to ACC cable between the K3 and the
KPA500 as shown
Eric -
What NR settings are you using on CW? I can't get rid of the background
white noise with the K3 NR like I can with my Orion NR. I wish I could!
My K3 is never 'silent' with NR turned on.

John,
I have adjusted my Rx EQ to attenuate the higher freqs. Also, I
usually have the RF Gain and preamp set so that noise floor is just
audible. My Preamp is almost always off.
With AF Gain at 12 o'clock and RF Gain at 3 o'clock, engaging NR at
the 1-2 setting is VERY quiet. (This probably
KX3 beta firmware rev 1.61 (with DSP rev 1.23) is now available. See release
notes below.
You'll need the KX3 Utility application to download and install firmware. For
full instructions on loading beta releases, refer to our KX3 software page:

73,
I have a KRC2 that is presently using the AUX Bus input to drive an Array
Solutions remote antenna switch . At 100 watts , it is usable but at 1500
watts is unusable. This evening I even unplugged the 12vdc supply and it still
drove the K3 nuts - froze it once and several times it would show

I live in a high noise environment for 40 and 80m and find I can never get a
useful result with the noise reduction on the K3, subsequently I never use

these frequencies where noise is prevalent. In an otherwise excellent

_I have a pretty high line noise problem here on six meters and the NR doesn't
make much of a dent in it. However when I tried the noise blanker it worked
great -- 10_12 DB of noise reduction as shown by wsjt. Try it. Start with the
IF blanker first and then add in some dsp.
Also, make sure

I tried different coax cables. I tried bypassing the wattmeter. I
tried just going directly to the antenna - any of the antennas and had
the same result. I tried different QSK delays and turned VOX off.
Nothing seemed to alleviate the issue.
I cannot tell for certain, but I do *not* think
So, today I received the latest CQ Magazine in the mail and see this
interesting article about a movie with Harrison Ford and other notable actors.
Apparently, ham radio plays a part, thus the article. The author was asked if
he had any high-end radios that could play a part in a movie.
Actually you ought to start with the DSP first. IF NB is a last resort
because it can generate trash when a strong signal shows up outside the
passband.

My KAT500 is running the latest firmware, 1.32, which I loaded a few
weeks ago. For the past year or so of operation it has worked
flawlessly. Now, not sure why, I am encountering various anomalies.

Do you have the correct sound card chosen in DM780? By default, it chooses
the default system audio device. You need to launch DM780 and tell it to
use the USB Audio Codec device (how Windows sees the SignaLink USB) for
both receive and transmit audio. The setting can be found in DM780
From what I read, it was released August 16th (I think I got the date right)

My favorite was the Sky King episode where the short wave set was a National
