[Elecraft] K3: LP-Pan 2 and the Blob

2015-05-25 Thread engineercm
Today I set about to get my new sound card/K3/LP-Pan 2/NAp3/new shack computer working in harmony. Alas, it was not to be. I've got the levels set correctly (thanks to Larry) and signals are apparent on the band. What is perplexing is what I have named The Blob (see attached screen shot). It

Re: [Elecraft] K2/100 twins configuration

2015-05-25 Thread Matt Maguire
There is a cable from KPA100 called KPA100-J4 that normally connects to the K2's P3 connector halfway along the right edge of the K2's RF board (when looking from the front of the radio. In a twins configuration, my guess is that this cable would not be connected, in which case you would need

[Elecraft] K2/100 twins configuration

2015-05-25 Thread Brian Denley
How does the K2 get it's power when only the high current supply is connected? I ask because sometimes my K2 doesn't - unless I connect a supply to the K2 directly. Is it through the KIO2? I also notice that when the power is lower the 11 watts, the SWR lights on my KAT100 do not light - but

[Elecraft] Blown finals

2015-05-25 Thread artus
Folks, I have a K2 that's a couple years old. A friend and I were working with it a couple weeks ago and switched an antenna connection -- the K2 went blank. After a bit of trancing it was apparent that one of the finals went. It was not in transmit. Pulling the bad final resulted in the K2

[Elecraft] K3, diversity and noise reduction

2015-05-25 Thread Tony McRae
I have been watching some youtube clips showing how by adjusting the phase and amplitude of two received signals on a diversity receiver local noise can be reduced by more than 20db. This would be particularly useful to me as I have the dirtiest plasma TV on one side of me and a gaggle of

For those of you running a K3 + RemoteRig station with multiple users, this may be of interest. Although we could not get the K3 Utility to communicate with the tower site K3 using RemoteRig's spare COM port, another list member suggested Win4K3 Suite software. I can report that the software

Check the bias voltage. If it's too high, it can blow the finals. Sometimes the circuit that provides the bias can have a shorted transistor and drive too much current into the base of the final transistors. Jack WA9FVF Willco Electronics - Jack WA9FVP Sent from my TRS-80 :-) -- View
