John,I have the Sony WH 1000X M2.    They are the most comfortable cans ever for me.   Noise cancellation is excellent esp as regards the KPA 1500.   I hear better with them and do so in comfort.   Never had the least bit of RF trbl from 160 to 6.73 Doug EI2CN   Age 77    like a kid againSent

[Elecraft] K3S RX ANT COR?

2021-11-18 Thread eric norris via Elecraft
Is there a COR protecting the RX IN on a K3S that does not have a KAT3 or a KRX3 installed?  I can't find a definitive answer in the manual or the Nabble archive.  Thanks. 73, Eric WD6DBM  __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

[Elecraft] Headphones (Again!)

2021-11-18 Thread John Reilly
I recently purchased a Bose QC-45. I used it for about 5 minutes in a CWops contest, and got RF in the left headphone. I disconnected it, and returned to my Bose QC-35's. The QC-45's have been returned to Amazon. I had a similar problem earlier in the year with the Bose 700 headphones. I

Bill, What is the level of the MCU (before you changed it), and what level did you try putting in? And what is the serial number of your K2?  Those may help to solve the problem. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/18/2021 3:55 PM, Bill Coleman wrote: U6 is kinda expensive to just replace…. I do have an

Matt, I Forgot to mention that to Bill.  The special cable does not have to be very long, but it must be present.  Only pins 2, 3 and 5 should connect to the RS232 connector on the USB to serial adapter.  Failure to follow this will cause several "strange happenings" with the K2.  The subject

Don’t forget, you can’t plug in a USB adapter directly into a K2, as the wiring is not standard RS232C. You need to make up a special adapter as described in the manual. Probably you know this already, but just something else to check. 73, Matt VK2RQ On Fri, 5 Nov 2021 at 06:31, Bill Coleman

U6 is kinda expensive to just replace…. I do have an older revision of the firmware for U6. I did try before substituting the KPA100 U4, and it didn’t address the issue. I guess this will require more sleuthing. > On Nov 16, 2021, at 12:35 PM, Don Wilhelm wrote: > > Bill, > > Plug the

For completeness I thought I would copy my original message for the doubters. "I received an email from a German ham telling me that he's observing the same thing that I reported a couple of years ago. Specifically an audible "clicking" sound in both my K3S and KPA500 that coincides with CW

[Elecraft] CW Side Tone in TX Test Mode

2021-11-18 Thread Mike Harris via Elecraft
Didn't see an answer to the question. I can confirm that my K3 with USB upgrade does output the CW side tone audio. This was confirmed by Launching Logger32 and looking at the audio in the MMTTY RX waterfall display. A simple test that probably took less time than launching an email.
