Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod button problems

Hello John & the Elecraft Gang, I have a similar problem with one of my KPOD switches. (I also use the KPOD for RIT when I'm running in CW and RTTY.) In my case, I have F3 programmed to toggle in and out of Diversity RX. Tap F3 = DIV; Tap & Hold F3 = clear DIV. For many years this worked like a

Re: [Elecraft] K3 problem solved.!!!

Josep, Apparently the 100 Watt PA has been disabled. Go to "Config" (Press and hold MENU), rotate VFO B until you see "KPA3", then rotate VFO A to select "PA nor." Remember, it is always a good idea to back up your K3 configuration. Use the K3 Utility to do a Config Backup. If you ever have a

Jim, You are correct! It is clearly not the same problem. I was trying to correct my "bad memory" offering from last evening. Thanks, Jim - WS6X -Original Message- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net On Behalf Of James Bennett via Elecraft Sent: Friday, April 01, 2022 3:36 PM To:

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 Issue

"However, what I'm seeing is that when the amp is in OPER mode, my receive signal strength drops way, way off to the point I have to go full AF volume to hear signals. If I put the amp in STBY, signal levels go back to normal." These exact symptoms have been associated in past reports with a

[Elecraft] OT: CW Touch Keyer P1PAD

Sorry for the intrusion. (In my defense, I HAVE used this paddle to key 5 Elecraft radios over the years!) In my recent move to a new QTH the manual for my P1PAD touch paddle seems to have taken flight. Does anyone in this group have access to the manual? Would you please contact me off list?

"When I engage OPER the input signal is attenuated by ~20 dB." Thanks to all for the prompt and informative replies. Apparently the culprit has been found. Several reported the exact same issue, one as recently as one week ago. According to one reply, an Elecraft Tech told him, "This is a known

[Elecraft] KPA500 Question

I just purchased a used KPA500 (SN 0456) from a close friend. The amp was just back to the factory for several repairs and was thoroughly tested. The report reads, "KPA500 #0456 meets or exceeds all factory specifications." My friend unboxed the amp and made several QSOs to be sure all issues were

Hello Again, Sorry for being so “mysterious” yesterday. Several of you have written, some with helpful suggestions, but many being curious about what I thought was “suspicious” about the KAT500 transaction. Briefly, I have learned when you place a “WTB:” ad on QTH.com, you often encounter

Re: [Elecraft] K3s Notch Filter

Hi Bernie, I think the trick is to press and hold the "NTCH" button to enter the manual notch mode. If you only tap the button, even though the display reads "Manual" and the icon appears, it is not really in the manual notch mode. For example, my CW sidetone pitch is set to 560 Hz. If I tune a
