I think I am having some issues with my KXPA 100, possibly the ATU. Could
someone please verify or refute these findings? Here is what I am seeing:
1) 25W and SWR LEDs linger on for 1.5 to 2 seconds after key up. They just stay
on, then fade, flicker, and finally go out.
2) The ATU seems to

Don,
When the first set of pictures were taken the audio output was in attenuate
mode with a minimal AF setting, the signalink Rx gain was set to 25% ish,
and the PC mic input gain was set to 25%. The only thing that changed
between pictures was the VFO. Last night I had a little time to double

Further to my message attached - I decided to download the KPA500 Remote

I had been using for the KPAUtil approach - and it seems to work just fine. It

I'm running NAp3 v2.2.4.2 on Windows 8.1, connected to the RX I/Q port on my
KX3 at one end and to the Line In jack on an iMac on the other end. As some
other folks have seen, there is an initial issue with images or duplicated
signals when NaP3 starts up. Ken (W0CZ) tipped me to a way to get

Hi Jim,
I'm running NaP3 v2.8.8 on Win7 Pro 64bit with my K3, so this may not be
applicable, but it could be worth a try.
In the NaP3 help file under the Menu/DSP contents
where it tells you how to do the calibrate that you have previously
done. It also tells you how after you have done your
Hi
That's interesting. In principle the automatic Iq routines should just handle
this IF the signal is on the Iq signal itself since it would also have an image
and thus the routines would just suppress it. Since it doesn't perhaps the
signal is just getting into the sound card and thus NaP3
OK - just pulled the IQ line out of the back of the iMac. Nothing showing on
the pan display, even when I key the KX3, so this signal is for sure coming
across that line from the KX3.
It's strange how the WBIR stuff is working, too. I tried setting it to Fixed
after doing a Calibrate. If I
Computers have sure complicated our hobby, Jim.
Never such issues with my good, old K2. So far
I've not ventured into that realm with my K3 nor
KX3, except for the Elecraft utilities. But my day

I can and do understand the achievement to get a new mode working, which is

There is a lot of activity on PSK31 mode using canned macros as you

there is a lot more to digimodes than just that.
