Re: [Elecraft] MSD question for PX3

2018-12-20 Thread Bob N3MNT
Does the PX3 work with just the USB stick by itself. If so, PX3 USB circuit may not be capable of supplying the current the card reader needs. -- Sent from: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/ __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

[Elecraft] MSD question for PX3

2018-12-20 Thread Mike Parkes
Hello group, happy holidays! Hey I am trying to get the PX3 working with a usb sd card reader (which works fine on the pc)... and when I plug this into the USB port on the px3 the display just freezes up, no "M" appears on the display. I have tried plugging this in both with and without an SD card

Mike, What happens if you plug a regular USB flashdrive into the PX3? The USB SD card reader may be different (I just don't know). While there is space in the computer to handle drivers for an SD card reader, the PX3 is more limited in its capability, the support for flash drives must be coded

Are you going to use the KX3, KXPA100 and the KPA500 all together? I can't help with that as I don't have the KXPA100. I use the KX3 with just the KPA500. You get about 250W out with 12W in. You use the ACC2IO cable that comes in the right angle cable kit or standalone and an RCA to RCA cable.

John, The Key Out signal is on the ring contact of the ACC2 jack. You will need a 2.5mm stereo plug. Of course the shell is common, and the tip is the GPIO - see page 5 of the KX3 manual. If you have both the KPA500 and KAT500, the Key Out signal must connect to one of the AMP KEY jacks

I'd like to thank W4NZ and DL5RBW who correctly identified the problem as a bad FET in the LPA. Identification and replacement of the offending part (a G-S short) took only a little longer than that needed to remove and replace the bottom panel. 73, -- Dick - K4XU

I recently purchased a KPA500 with the cable to connect to the KX3. Can someone tell me where the plugs on cable that connects the KPA100 amp plug into the KX3? I have been told that that cable can be used to connect to the KPA500 without the frequency control. John Ad2F

I failed to mention that I am using the KX3 with a PX3. That is the combo that need the plug information to connect to the KPA500. John AD2F __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help:
