2012-01-17 Thread eric manning
Does anyone have a circuit which will convert K3 band data to the analog voltage levels expected by the ICOM IC-2KL amplifier? I keep forgetting to do band changes on the amp during contests 73 Eric, VA7DZ -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by

When I want to QSY to 6 meters, I expect to punch a button that says 6M or 50. If a friend comes over to operate my K3, I don't want to have to point to a yellow sticky note hanging from a shelf, and then spend 10 minutes briefing them on the intricacies of using the user-programmed memories.

I'm a little mystified by the passion some folks seem to have about accelerating the band switching process. Do you really switch bands that much? I suppose some do. The issue (at least for me) isn't speed. The issue is reliability and user friendliness. The reason why so many of us are

Hi Everyone, In hanging around the K3 booth in Dayton this year (some would say I was 'lurking' around the booth) I overheard several K3 prospective owners pressing Wayne on the absence of dedicated bandswitches and bandstacking registers. Having been a user of Icom and Ten Tec gear for

I posted this idea on May 9. I got several favorable replies and thanks for it. I still find it very efficient, so I offer this again. There is plenty more memory space left to add data bands. - A complete BAND SWITCHING scheme using 23 memories I tried
