Re: [Elecraft] Operating KX3/KXPA100 on LiPO3 batteries??
Here’s an excellent explanation of LiPo batteries that I read last night. Take a look and become knowledgeable about them. https://rogershobbycenter.com/lipoguide/ On Wednesday, July 25, 2018, Erik Basilier wrote: > I have the 20Ah Bioenno battery and am very pleased with it.

Re: [Elecraft] Strange CW at each button push
Thanks guys. That is very fast response. I have as a result of these suggestions, updated to the newest revision of the firmware. I had thought that the radio was giving me information through the tones, but I couldn't find it. I turned off the SW TONE, and that will probably do it. I will see on my next activation of a summit. Thank you each of you for the help.

[Elecraft] Strange CW at each button push
On my last two SOTA activations, my KX2 appears to be working valiantly. At some point, however, I find that I cannot push any button without it giving me a short CW message. I am not up on CW yet, and during a SOTA activation, there is no time to try to understand what is happening. It doesn't act up when at home!? When on an activation, I merely turn the radio off and back on. That clears the problem temporarily. I am on firmware rev. 02.86 Rich Day KK4DZE __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
