[Elecraft] Measuring performance of roofing filters

All, Reading all info about the roofing filters... Many opinions but I still miss a few things here to decide on which roofing filters I'm going to buy. I'm a guy who likes to see the figures. (In the Lord we trust, others have to bring data...) Here's an idea. The following measurements for

Would not it be nice... if someone measured the IMD dynamic range of the K3 with the interfering signals placed within the bandwidth of the first IF (roofing) filter? Or has that one already been published somewhere? Or is that impossible to measure? Arie PA3A

RE: [Elecraft] K3 Transmit IMD

If we distort our SSB audio by compression etc, then let's hope that the sideband filter will limit the bandwidth. (I don't know where the compression or whatever is done in a K3). But if the PA distorts the signal even more, there is no filter to limit this within a few kHz. So I think the IMD

RE: [Elecraft] 6 khz cw question

RE: [Elecraft] K3 filter selection

Chris, Many people like the 1.8. I have the 2.1 Inrad combo in my ol' MP. Pretty narrow to my ears. And I can use the shift width controls to decrease the bandwidth some more. I ordered the 2.1 for my K3. If I need to knock out something, I'm convinced that the DSP filtering will make it so.

RE: [Elecraft] Sub-rx install video/pix?

Brian, I am planning to do so. I will publish the video of the KRX3 assembly... As soon as the KRX3 arrives. Expecting it within a few months. (Ordered it Feb 2008) 73, Arie PA3A -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens alsopb Verzonden:

RE: [Elecraft] KRX3 questions

Lyle, I can understand why the beat effect can happen at certain frequencies. I read the message about the rounding errors. My question is: can you give an indication of how often this happens. Of course it depends on freq and filter offset but still, can you give an idication how bad it is.

[Elecraft] KRX3 in diversity and beatnotes

(was subject KRX3 Questions) Thanks Bill, I think I have to restate the question for the group. Just suppose that main and sub receivers have filters with different off-sets. It is stated that in some cases a 1Hz beatnote occurs due to rounding errors. Question is: How often does the 1 Hz

RE: [Elecraft] Kent Single Lever Paddles

In my shack: On my left hand: iambic B ,if possible with auto character space (depending on keyer used K3, K2, deluxe keyer late 70's, super-keyer late 90's, Winkey) On my right side: vibroplex bug (only one). In the middle a keyboard connected to N1MM and winkey for contesting (but that does not

[Elecraft] Manual Notch

Maybe this has been discussed before... Using the manual notch to dip a unwanted signal works great. I would expect that the AGC would react to this notching by increasing the gain of the rx again. It seems that this is not so. Is the notchfilter just an AF notch filter and not a IF notch (DSP IF

RE: [Elecraft] Manual Notch

Thanks Lyle, That's the thing I was describing indeed. Any plans of moving the notch upstream as if it were notching in IF (like in a analog rx) ? Arie PA3A At present, the NOTCH filter, whether automatic or manual, is after the AGC loop. 73, Lyle KK7P

[Elecraft] KRX3 in diversity and beatnotes - again

Have not seen any answer to this question yet. Here it is again. Just suppose that main and sub receivers have filters with different off-sets. It is stated that in some cases a 1Hz beatnote occurs due to rounding errors. Question is: How often does the 1 Hz beat 'note' occur? Is it on almost

RE: [Elecraft] Manual Notch

Lyle, Is anybody at Elecraft AT PRESENT working on bringing the notch upstream as if it were notching in IF (like in a analog rx) ? 73 Arie PA3A Hello Arie! Key phrase is at present :-) 73, Lyle KK7P ___

RE: [Elecraft] K3 Digital audio out ?

I bought the K3 for its raw hamradio-transceiver performance. 73, Arie == Hi, is there any possibility to grab a digital audio out signal (e.g. a PCM stream) out of the K3 ? Backgound is to get a digital audio out signal to send it via VoIP e.g. via

RE: [Elecraft] still have a problem.... still TX on power on --K2

Sorry to come in this thread so late. Missed it because of a holidays. Jean-Francois, I had the same thing about a year ago and had to replace the main control processor and the sub processor on the ssb board. They share the ptt line that is directly connected to mic - jack without any

[Elecraft] K3 AGC behaviour, in particular for pulse noise

All, I would like to share the following experience on the AGC settings of the K3. Situation at my QTH: There is an electric fence nearby my home that gives a pulse type of noise. The K3 handled that pretty well with the AGC PLS setting to ON. Switching the AGC PLS to OFF gave me a lot of

RE: [Elecraft] CQWW RTTY - K3 Experience

I had a few spare moments this weekend and took the CW-paddle for about 100 RTTY QSO's during the CQWW. Boy, that was very easy and, most of all, FUN. Only had to change my routine from 5nn a4 to 5nn 14 :-) Using the CW memories made it even more easy. I think it must have been a bit strange

RE: [Elecraft] CQWW RTTY - K3 Experience

Yes Bill, I used the IM during paddling and using the memories. If using the paddle, be sure to really send ..-- A bit too slow with the paddle and it sends IM. :-) The high speed of the memories: good idea! Implented for next time. 73 Arie PA3A
