[Elecraft] K3 Button Function
Ed - W0YK P.S. As a K3 field tester, does that make me part of the "K3 finalization team" and therefore disqualified from answering the question? ;>) Thank you Ed. Didn't want to incur any wrath for slowing down the "team." :^) As I learn about the K3, I am amazed at the thought that went into the applications and ergonomics. You and the entire design/test team sure have done your homework! When the manual becomes available, I'm sure that I'll learn enough to hit the ground running when my rig arrives. Thank you again.

Re: [Elecraft] K2 Keying current?
Thanks for all the responses. I got this working pretty quickly yesterday. It took two iterations ... first time, I made the cable a bit too short in my effort to keep my desk neat - and had some of the connections off-by-one on the DB25 :-) The computer would key the radio but never unkey. I figured that out and added a foot of cable and N1MM logger is happy... 73 de chris K6DBG P.S. http://pages.cthome.net/n1mm/html/English/Interfacing.htm has schematics, among other places.

[Elecraft]K2 Scan not staying on freq long enough
Today I tried scanning for the first time with surprising results. Instead of staying on a signal for about 25 seconds, my K2 stays on a signal for a random 3 to 18 seconds (usually less than 5 seconds). These CW stations heard by scanning are often very strong and over 15 wpm with no breaks in transmission expected. The random nature of the pause time with good signals is also a surprise. I setup the scanning with DSP on and off with no difference in results. The scan rate was also varied with no differences observed. Does the procedure you have followed give the 25 second result described in the manual? Any ideas of why the K2 #6155 with 2.04P firmware might act this way? 73 -- Arthur [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] (files >5Mb) ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

[Elecraft] Looking for a used K2
Within a month I will be "in the market" for a used K2 with the following options: SSB, 160M, 20W internal ATU and a K6XX Visual Zero Beat Indicator (I will probably need to add this option myself). I would prefer a unit with a serial number above 3000 but will consider an older unit which is suitably priced to allow for upgrades. If you have or know of such a unit, please reply directly to me with description of options and desired price.
