It'd certainly be of interest to me!!! 73, doug
From: wayne burdick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sat, 2 Oct 2004 23:50:06 -0700 Hi Eric, Great idea, but the KX1's final amplifier operates class C. To make the KX1 transmit on SSB would require class AB PA bias and the addition of a balanced modulator. This is not readily accomplished with either internal mods or an external adapter. However, it may be possible to operate the KX1 in any low-data-rate, dual-tone FSK mode. This is compatible with a class-C final amp, and should require only a firmware change. The KX1's key jack would serve as the data input/output port for connection to a computer. Unfortunately FSK (e.g. traditional RTTY) is not quite as popular as PSK31 for QRP use, even though good reliability is possible with some variants. Would this be of interest? 73, Wayne _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
