[Elecraft] KX3 150Hz tone
Happy 2015 everyone! Last year at Dayton I wanted to talk to a couple .mil comm guys. Lots of them had radios in the 6m band (which my KX3 supported) but they have a PL tone of 150Hz. How hard would it be for Elecraft to put this into the next firmware update? I think it would be awesome to get some KX3s on some green gear nets in the future! Take care all and hope you have a good new year! http://a.pomf.se/tejvqf.jpg __ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] KX3: RX audio Line out? Feature Request.
This would be amazing and a huge help with digital modes. On September 25, 2014 4:25:32 AM EDT, Dave B g8kbvd...@googlemail.com wrote: One for the KX3 Firmware guru's I think. Looking at the schematic, there might be a way to uncouple the Headphone Right and Left levels, and set them indipendantly, while also leaving the speaker amp enabled. That would allow, when a cable is plugged into the Phones jack, the Audio DAC Left to still run the speaker (level set by the front panel AF gain) while Right is used as a fixed level Line output at some other (menu set?) level, for external digimode decoders. (However, I've not looked at the data sheet for the TLV320AIC3105 audio codec chip used, yet to see if it could support that, I just suspect it might.) If it could. Howabout that as a feature request? We woudnt need to faff about with 3.5mm jack splitters and an external powered speaker just to still hear what's going on, while plugged into an external decoder. Or is there an existing menu feature I've missed that would do that already? And yes, I am aware that many PC's allow you to listen to an input, but not all OS's support that on all platforms. Nor do many hardware based digimode devices (TNC's and the like.) If (a big IF) that was to be possible. Storing such settings in a memory along with frequency/mode etc would be fantastic! (A Line IN would be nice, but I don't se any other already connected ways to do that, though there are plenty of spare inputs to the audio codec chip.) 73.

[Elecraft] KX3 setting per band
Hello all! I was wondering if I am over looking something, or if it hasn't been implemented yet. Is it possible to set modes (AM, FM) per band? I only want to leave FM on for 10m, 6m, and 2m when my board gets here Monday :) Likewise I only want to leave AM on for 80m and 10m (wwv). So far all I am seeing is that it is either on or off. Any help would be great! __ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] [KX3] Case for KX3
I use a Maxpedition 5 x 12 bottle holder for my KX3 and accessories. I use a 4 x 10 pouch for a123 systems battery and power accessories. http://s1166.photobucket.com/user/jnu5/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20140804_170626_zpsmuw0a3wl.jpg.html On 08/19/2014 08:03 AM, Gerry leary wrote: Check out Roses custom cases.

I have used many of their products for a few decades and it's all holding up well. REI also has some of their bags, as well as some photog type bags from MountainSmith. Seeing a few comments about them, I ordered a StrobeStuff bag from ThinkTank, but returned it. I felt it is far bulkier than need be and doesn't offer protection for much beyond light bumps or scrapes, and I found it clumsy to get a KX3 into it, even w/o heatsink, SideKX's or Lexan cover, because of the center opening zipper. Might have been easier with a Lexan cover installed, preventing it from trying to hang up on the zipper. A snug fitting Polarfleece type stuff bag or something like a thick sock would offer about as much protection with minimal additional bulk, if one were going to carry it packed away in a backpack, for example. For carrying just the KX3 and a few accessories, on a bicycle, motorcycle or in the trunk of a vehicle, something like the Pelican 1200 or a well padded photog type case or pack is probably the best insurance. I've taken expensive camera radio gear off road on the back of a dual sport motorcycle in Pelican 1200, 1300 1400 cases with no co n ce rns about the welfare of the contents. 73 de Dennis KD7CAC Scottsdale, AZ On Aug 18, 2014, at 5:27 PM, k...@qsl.net [KX3] k...@yahoogroups.com wrote: Sorry, Jim, but there's no model number anywhere on or in the bag. I've owned this bag for many years, so it's likely been discontinued. I used it to transport an Icom 703 for a long time before I got the KX3. I just reconfigured the dividers as required. My suggestion is to visit a large camera store (the kind of place where professional photographers shop) and see what they have to offer. That's how I found my bag. Maybe look at the web sites of some of the big national camera stores, like B H Photo Video, Ritz Camera (where I buy a lot of my photo gear), and so on. Your bag is out there... 73/72, Dean K5DH __._,_.___ Posted by: k...@qsl.net __ 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 Message delivered to gerrylear...@icloud.com __ 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 Message delivered to kf5...@gmail.com __ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
