I have a friend (a new Elecrafter) who has a K3/0 Mini, and is connected to the RemoteHamRadio service. How is the connection to his logging program done? A USB to serial cable to the COM1 connector on the RemoteRig box doesn't do it. 73, Mike NF4L

[Elecraft] K3 logging, digital software

My favorite logger (for Mac) has a new version, RUMLogNG. It has a control screen for the K3/KX3 and one for the P3/PX3. Tom DL2RUM is still working on it, but it's very nice. It uses Fldigi for digital modes, and transfers data using an Applescript. With a lot of help, I put together a web

[Elecraft] K3 and FLDigi

I've been using CocoaModem, but since Chen isn't supporting it anymore, I feel the need to move on. I'm trying to get fldigi working, hopefully with RUMLogNG. It decodes CW but not RTTY, and doesn't transmit either. I suspect off-line would be best. 73, Mike NF4L

I'm trying to help a friend get his new K3/0 mini and RR box connected. He's using Win8 and Xfinity. The RR box isn't talking to the Xfinity modem/router. The LED on the RR box is solid green, the LED on the modem is blinking amber. Looking in the modem settings, the RR box doesn't show up in

[Elecraft] [K3]Split

Someone made what I thought was a really good suggestion. I think it got lost in the noise. I wish I could remember who made it. Fix not being able to change modes while in split. How about it Wayne? 73, Mike NF4L __ Elecraft mailing

Re: [Elecraft] A way to show both SPLIT and NON-SPLIT warnings

If it's an option, OK, but I am convinced that if an op misses the existing two indicators on the LCD display, and the Δf yellow LED, then more indicators aren't gonna help. And I am unanimous in my opinion. I'd much rather see the effort go into separating VOX for data from VOX for SSB. 73,

Re: [Elecraft] Split operation - display of Transmit frequency on keydown

G! No! If someone, looking at the display, doesn't notice the SPLT, or the down arrow, then I don't think another indicator is gonna do any good. I think the problem lies in NOT looking at the radio in the passion of the chase. If the radio is in split, and the VFO's are equal, then

This morning I noticed something strange with #3539. On 80 160, tune only put out 10W. The level is set for 44W. Full output is 44W, power set to 100W. SWR with the AT in bypass is 1.3 on 80M, 1.2 on 160M. All this on ANT1. Power out on 40M up is as expected. I connected a dummy load to
