[Elecraft] K3 and Microham MKII
What are the correct setting to get the K3 to work with the Microham MKII. I see K3 and K3 (patched) with no info at all about what K3 patched even means. It used to work with just K3. Work has been hectic and finally I get a chance to work CQ WW CW and the MKII will not connect with the K3 John __ 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
Re: [Elecraft] K3 and Microham MKII
What are the correct setting to get the K3 to work with the Microham MKII. I see K3 and K3 (patched) with no info at all about what K3 patched even means. Either will work. The (patched) version clears the CAT queue more quickly if the K3 stops responding (user turns it off but leaves a logging program polling) and will recover more quickly. Make sure the K3, MK II and logging software are all set for the same data rate. 73, ...

Re: [Elecraft] K3 using Microham MKII
style type=text/css - /style Hi John, First try to set up the Microkeyer without any external programms. Make sure K3 in enabled in the Programm. You should see the K3 Frequency in the Microkeyer Programm... For the cables.. only the usb cable goes to the computer Be sure install the drivers in the computer.. if yes .. You have to set the audio in Windows to the Microham Codec.. If the drivers are installed correctly, windows should see them.. If you have the original K3 Cable just follow the manual.. My setup works 100% with the MKII and several programms like RCKLOG, HRD, MixWin. If you have questions ... go ahead.. 73 de Tom HNY What connections are required to run PSK with the Microham MKII interfacing to the K3? Where to the audio cables on the MK II DB37 connect? I cannot find any info for connecting the MKII to the K3 in the Microkeyer II doc, or if it is there, I donrsquo;t see it. Also, I am using one of the new Sony desktops VGC-LT35 and HRD current release. I do not see the Microham soundcard listed on the Sony but I see the Line light blinking on the MKII so I guess it sees the soundcard but does not recognize it as Microham CODEC. Worst case Irsquo;ll put my old Sony laptop back to do PSK because it sees the Microham CODEC soundcard for sure.

Is my DB37 cable incorrect? No, you simply have the very first version the factory built. -Original Message- From: John Gaynard [mailto:jgayn...@columbus.rr.com] Sent: Monday, January 05, 2009 11:56 AM To: li...@subich.com Subject: RE: [Elecraft] K3 using Microham MKII Joe Both Line-in/out plugs are stereo plugs on my K3 DB37 cable.

On some early versions of the DB37-El-K3 cable set the Line In and Line Out plugs may be marked incorrectly - the Line Out jack has the pigtail with a separate 3.5mm female jack (Sub RX/Right audio out).
