Re: [Elecraft] K4 and RTTY question

I don't think the logging software is the problem. Since the KY command works for both CW and RTTY, I tried an experiment: I switched the mode using the K3's front panel from Data to CW and the problem did not occur. (I listened to the monitor output.) The UI for the program still showed RTTY,

Hello, Does your K1 or K2 need repair? Tuneup? Want to sell, but it needs some attention before offering it for sale? In addition to tuning your rig, I can also rescue a building project you might have started some time ago. See what my clients have said about my construction and service work

FWIW:  The KX3 shares the same wonky behavior. Plus inconsistent quirks about forgetting "Scale" and "Ref" settings.  Esp after band/mode changes. Supporting and remembering separate settings for:  CW  vs. "voice" widths for "Span" would be a welcome improvement. Bruce  W2SE On 7/18/20

My intent was not to emulate the exact H/W and its problems, but the APIs used (eg, programs using TinyFSK send [ , then text and ] to end the TX). I know TinyFSK has issues. But I was not intending that Elecraft copy the problems. I just wanted something similar to what TinyFSK does ( send

Christophe, You likely do not have the proper sidetone source selected. Go to the STL menu and set the parameter to about 30 - then tap DISPLAY to toggle between U6-25 and U8-4. Stop when you hear sidetone and exit the menu. 73, Don W3FPR On 7/20/2020 3:50 PM, Christophe aufacf wrote:

Personally, I'd like to see the K4 support something like the TinyFSK protocol for doing RTTY. It could present multiple serial ports. one for CAT, one for FSK and one for Keying. The FSK could emulate tinyFSK and the keyer could emulate the K1EL keyers. That way programs don't need to

Personally, I wouldn't be concerned about the radio just yet. There's a couple of other variables to check first. How's the air flow around the radio? What's the ambient temp right around the radio (not the room, but right next to the radio)? Any thing sitting on top of the radio? Heat

Hi Wayne, "The improved resolution ensures that the correct bin is detected when you get within +/- 1 kHz of the target ATU LC data bin rather than +/- 8 kHz." It has always been possible to provide the KAT500 and KPA1500 with TX frequency to 1 kHz resolution using the serial interface.
