Are you sure the K3 front end is overloading and not the LP-PAN system (QSD, attached soundcard)? Are you experiencing symptoms that suggest reh K3 front end is overloading other than the LP-PAN display (which may be displaying the LP-PAN system, and in particular the soundcard ADC, overloading)? You might try adding an attenuator between the K3 IF out and the LP-PAN IF in and see if the overloading disappears. If so, it might indicate the LP-PAN system is overloading rather than the K3. 73, Lyle KK7P PS - The K3 blocking dynamic range is 20 to 30 dB better than PC-based SDRs. So I suspect you are seeing a weakness in the PC-based SDR system rather than the K3, but I've been wrong before! :-) ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
