Re: [Elecraft] KX3/KX2 Cruiseship Operation

2005, Ft. Lauderdale-->6Y-->P4-->HP-->TI-->XE [x3]-->Los Angeles.  Bought the KX1 to take on the trip 15 day trip. I wrote to Princess Lines with the radio specs and photos.  Answer by telephone was "Absolutely not!  It might interfere with operation of the ship and you could start a fire." 

[Elecraft] KX3 manual information

I would like to point out there is no errata for the KX3 owners manual which was printed about 2 years ago according to the Elecraft website. Lots of firmware changes in 2 years! So an errata page does not solve my problem. It is hard for me to believe there is no up-to-date information available

Re: [Elecraft] Kx33 PSU for KX2?

Hi Bret, The short answer is yes. I have a Kx33 to power my K2/10. If I remember correctly, it is rated 14.4 V at 4 Amps. For K2 owners who have the internal battery, he has an adapter you can purchase that will reduce the voltage to 13.8 Volts for battery charging. It is a very good power supply.

[Elecraft] KXPD2 - Iambic B

Just starting to use my KPXD2 paddles on my KX2. I have them set to Iambic B. The left paddle will give only dits if pressed and held any length of time. The right paddle when pressed will give either dahs or fits and dahs, depending on length of press. I can do a R or K by pressing the right

Yes, there is the WSPR map site, where all activity for WSPR is listed. http://wsprnet.org/drupal/wsprnet/map And also a great daily report and blog by John WB5NJD http://njdtechnologies.net/category/630-meter-daily-reports/ You can see there are 80 to 90 people active almost daily, many

Re: [Elecraft] Back to VFO linking.

VFO A controls both receivers in diversity mode, but VFO B can be tuned separately. Typically it would be used as a holding register for another frequency of interest, or for the transmit frequency in SPLIT mode. See the third paragraph on page 40 (under “Diversity Receive”). 73, Wayne N6KR

Freshly updated K3 by factory. Yes, I know the VFO lnk is now a menu item… but: 1) use menu to turn VFO linking on. works as expected. Turning VFO A properly changes VFO B. 2) turn SUB ON. works as expected, can adjust VFO B separately, and then VFO A will move both properly. 3)

Re: [Elecraft] Kx33 PSU for KX2?

Bret, I boought a KX33 for use with my KX3 and it worked fine, both here in the US at 110 volts and in the Philippines at 220 volts. It is now used to power my KX2 here in California. Works very, very well. Jim Bennett / W6JHB Folsom, CA > On Sep 21, 2017, at 12:29 PM, MaverickNH

Re: [Elecraft] Up-to-date KX3 menu printout

Keith, Menu items are added/subtracted only infrequently. Minor changes to a particular menu item may happen more frequently. Look at the firmware release notes - any changes to the menu will be noted there. That is the source of the very latest information. You can write any change

[Elecraft] Kx33 PSU for KX2?

Saw a post from Howe at ProAydio Engineering "...and we have supplied many Kx33 14V supplies to KX2 owners who want to use the rig at 10W power when AC power is available." I didn't want to take this out of context, but can the Kx33 PSU be used to safely power the KX2 from my 110V US wall outlet?

Could anyone please direct me to an up-to-date menu listing for my KX3 that I could print? I have seen several and looked at the KE7X books but none seem to be up-to-date as of MCU version 2.76. I hate looking all over for corrections to the old menu versions available on the net. For that
