Re: [Elecraft] [K3] [KRC2]
Yes. Use the auxbus connection rather than RS232. You can also use the band out lines with pull ups. If you have a transverter, do not loop the signals besides auxbus through the KRC2. The KRC2 loads the K3 on and Key signals too much. The KRC2 does not understand 6m, at least my version with the accessibility firmware does not. 6m will appear as an undefined band, which happens to correspond to 160m. I am sure Elecraft are working on new KRC2 firmware.

This effectively means you have a choice of which HF band to work as 6m. To select this you need to use an invisible feature in the menu for the KRC2 on the K3. Press Button 1 (A/B, 1, B.SET) on the K3 to toggle 6m being mapped to 10m or 60m.

Re: [Elecraft] New K3
Mic gain should NEVER have any influence on Vox gain. Mic Gain should always be adjusted to provide 4+ bars of ALC indication on the K3. This indicates sufficient audio level for proper operation of the transmitter, including VOX, CMP, AM modulation and FM deviation among other things. The VOX system gets its audio signal after the Mic amplifier, so this setting also normalizes the VOX system. Thus, one VOX setting is all that is required no matter which audio source (FP MIC, RP MIC, LINE IN) or microphone you are using. If VOX Gain was not taken after applying Mic Gain, you'd have to adjust Mic Gain *and* VOX gain every time you used a different microphone or other transmit audio source. We have many users who routinely use different microphones on their K3s, so normalizing the VOX system gain was a deliberate system design decision. 73, Lyle KK7P ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] KAT2 J8 tolerance?
Phil, Yes, it is a tight fit with those many pins, but it will go on, and it will come off too. Make certain all the pins are started before applying pressure and apply pressure from both ends of the board. To remove it, 'wiggle' the ends of the boards alternately so it is removed straight. It requires less force after 2 or 3 times. 73, Don W3FPR Phillip Heller wrote: Just finished the KAT2 for K2 #6662. Unfortunately, J8 is just too tight on CTRL P4.

Re: [Elecraft] FT9000 vs the K3?
Hi OM, First of all, you should ask this question both in FTDX9000 and K3 mail reflectors. I believe you will get different answers. For FTDX9000, you have to look for the latest version with PEP modification.. Otherwise, older version will disappoint you for sure and cannot be compared with K3 in any aspects. Ok, back to your question. K3 is excellent in its performance and specifications, good for both station and portable operation. However, if you look for operation convenience, you may look for a bigger rig with bigger size + 200w + internal power supply unit. This will be up to your personal preference. One thing, I would like to point out that the price of a full option (adding up every bits) K3 is high end as well. Of course, K3 will give you the full liberty to choose what options you would like. If you have any question, please contact me OFF the list. 73 Johnny Siu VR2XMC K3, K2, FTDX9k, IC7800, IC7700 --- 2009年1月23日 星期五，Lance Collister w...@q.com 寫道﹕ 寄件人: Lance Collister w...@q.com 主題: [Elecraft] FT9000 vs the K3? 收件人: 'Elecraft Group' elecraft@mailman.qth.net 日期: 2009 1 23 星期五 下午 12:00 Hello!

Re: [Elecraft] OT: Test Equipment
Not sure what you plan on using it for, but you might just be happy with your antenna analyzer output. Antenna analyzers I've looked at (MFJ-259B, AIM4170B, AA-200) have a pretty well regulated RF output level across their full range. The MFJ-259B and AA-200 have 2Vp-p output levels, and the AIM-4170B has about a 20mVp-p output level. The MFJ-259B drifts around a lot, and needs to be run from a fixed voltage external power supply for best frequency stability after warm-up. The AIM4170B and AA-200 are synthesized and let you sweep as well. The AIM4170B even lets you zero its accuracy to WWV. Then all you need are some step- and/or fixed-attenuators to get the level to where you want it. I'm sure that the phase noise isn't HP-quality, but you can do a lot of normal ham-stuff. I use the high level outputs with an oscilloscope for filter work. Phil - AD5X___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

[Elecraft] K3 Filter Plots
I finally got around to downloading and trying KS7D Mike's K3 Filter Tools program. I had previously measured the response of one of my filters by manually sweeping the K3 VFO across the XG-2's 50 microvolt signal and writing down the AFV outputs from the K3 display. Then I discovered that I had forgotten to turn off the AGC, and never bothered to repeat the measurements. Now, with Mike's excellent program, I have some nice plots of my K3 filter responses, with and without the effects of the DSP filters. I have the XG-2 connected to one of the antenna inputs of my KD9SV receive antenna box, so I can switch it into the K3 without changing any cables.

But this goes way beyond the simple signal processing used in, say, the K3's present CW decoder or the one used in HRD. (I studied natural language recognition in college and was anxious to play with either neural networks or traditional AI methods as the foundation for CW decoding, but my other classes got in the way :) One idea from the early days of AI is the so-called blackboard model. Imagine a garbled sentence on a blackboard, with various experts offering their opinions about what each letter and word is based on their specialized knowledge of word morphology, letter frequency, syntax, semantics, etc. You weigh these opinions based on degree of confidence, and once there's enough evidence for a letter or word, you fill it in, which in turn offers additional information to the highest-level expert, who might be considering the actual meaning of a phrase. His predictions can then strengthen the evidence for lower level symbols, and so on. Such methods are very algorithm-intensive, but might be useful for some aspects of CW stream parsing. A neural network could handle this, too, and has the advantage of self-organization. This is how I'd approach it (assuming unlimited free time--not!). You could use any of several different types of networks that have been proven successful at NLP (natural language processing). For example, you might take the incoming CW, break it into samples (say a few samples per bit at the highest code speed to be processed), shift the serial data representing 5 to 20 letters into a serial-to-parallel shift register, then feed the parallel data to the network's inputs. Or you could use a network with internal feedback (memory), with just one input, which itself could be fuzzy (the analog voltage from an envelope detector) or digital (0 or 1 depending on the output of a comparator, looking at the CW stream). The output might be a parallel binary word, perhaps ASCII, or a single output with multiple levels, where the voltage itself represents a symbol. To make this work, you need at least three things: an input representation that provides adequate context (e.g., if you want to decode a letter, the input should contain at least a few letters on either side of the target); a sufficiently complex network; and a large corpus of clean text with which to train the network (probably thousands of words, drawn from actual on-air content). One classic method of training the network involves placing known-good signals at the input, then comparing the desired outputs to the actual outputs, and back-propagating the resulting error through the network--from outputs to hidden layers to inputs--so that the network's nodes gradually acquire the proper weights. Once the network has been trained to the point that it perfectly copies clean CW, you can then present it with a noisy signal stream. A well-designed network would be able to correct dropped CW elements or even letters if its internal representation is highly evolved. The network will have learned language-specific rules, and you don't have to know how it works, anymore than you know how your own brain does it. The actual implementation is left as an exercise for the reader. If you come up with an algorithm written in 'C', let me know and I'll try to port it to the K3's PIC. Wayne N6KR Sounds good, Wayne. When can you have it done? Upper right hand button would be my choice. 73 de Terry, W0FM Why would anybody want to use a CW decoder in the first place???

Re: [Elecraft] [K3] [KRC2]
While the use of the AuxBus connection is preferred for K3-KRC2 communications, it does not carry information needed by the KRC2ACC to announce radio status. For this the KRC2 needs to be connected to the radio using the serial port. To get full functionality from the KRC2ACC here, which include radio change CW announcements, band switching and ACC control from the radio, both serial port and AuxBus need to be connected. And don't forget that the serial port needs to be running at 4800 baud for all KRC2/KRC2ACC firmware versions prior to V1.5. The V1.5 firmware adds recognition of 6 meters from the K3, and new microcontrollers from the factory have the bandmaps set to output the 6m selection on the XV1 pins. Users upgrading from earlier firmware versions will need to use the configuration tool to remap their bandmaps to enable this selection. Unfortunately there appears to be a problem with the KRC2 configuration tool communicating with the KRC2 which currently prohibits this. We are investigating the problem and potential fixes. Anyone contemplating use of the KRC2 or KRC2ACC with their K3 should download and read the KRC2 manual, revision C from the Elecraft website, Manuals Downloads page. It has a revised section on connecting the KRC2 with various radios including the K3.

This effectively means you have a choice of which HF band to work as 6m. To select this you need to use an invisible feature in the menu for the KRC2 on the K3. Press Button 1 (A/B, 1, B.SET) on the K3 to toggle 6m being mapped to 10m or 60m.

Re: [Elecraft] KAT2 bridge null adj.
Allan, Do you actually have power flowing through the KAT2? Power is necessary to generate voltage at the diodes D1 and D2 cathodes. If you can temporarily connect an external wattmeter between the KAT2 and the dummy load, see if power is getting through. Once you determine that there is power flowing out of the KAT2, remove the external wattmeter before attempting to set C55 to its final setting. If you do have power flowing and still have a display of 000, be certain you have the potentiometers set to full clockwise (max rotation). Check the orientation of D1 and D2 and look for soldering problems. Measure the DC voltage at the wiper of R2 - If you have voltage at the wiper of R2, but still a zero display there is a problem between R2 and pin 4 of U1. 73, Don W3FPR Allan Glasdam wrote: Hi guys After receiving great help from Don off list with the KAT2, I have a new problem KAT2 assembly and operating instruction page 16, second from bottom says: adjust C55.

Re: [Elecraft] HRD cw copy
I've used the CW decoder ring function on my K3 a few times, but that's not why I bought the rig. Good code, with a likewise good S/N ratio, yields good machine copy. So does my brain to some extent. The spoilers are those ops that send CW in a continuous unbroken stream, and high noise levels relative to the CW signal. The former apparently like sending a stream via a key, or more likely a keyboard, and hopefully there's a very experienced op or PC program at the other end to make sense of it all. Some folks talk that way as well. The challenge in a high noise environment is the ability to set the signal threshold just above the noise to prevent the generation of random extraterrestrial code = E's and T's. Yes I use and peak the K3's noise blankers, and sometimes the NR with a wide filter, but it's those brief noise pops that bleed through that ruin the CW soup. Somehow improving that aspect will improve the machine copy I believe. 73 Gary NL7Y -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/HRD-cw-copy-tp2195214p2205296.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 KDVR Problem errasing unwanted M1-M4 recordings
To completely erase your transmit message: Tap REC Tap the Memory you want to erase. Immediately REC again to stop. That works because starting a new recording in a memory location completely eliminates whatever was in that location. A fraction of a second of recording effectively erases all 16 seconds because the playback stops automatically at the end of the recording. I don't believe there's a way to completely erase the Received audio recording other than by recording over the whole 90 seconds.

Doug, My apologies, but this actually will *not* work in all cases. In some modes, if the automatically-selected crystal filter is wider than will fit above the carrier (Fc), then the I.F., 1st LO, and BFO may all end up shifted to compensate. Thus the two sythesizers will not be on exactly the same frequency, and a phase offset is possible. Using your 400 and 250 Hz filters as an example: If your sidetone pitch were say 500 or 600 Hz and you had no passband SHIFT in effect, both synths would be set at the same frequency. But if you used a much lower sidetone pitch (say 300 Hz), the nominal position of the 400 Hz filter (but not the 250 Hz filter) might be shifted slightly upward, moving the synths apart, even though the perceived receive pitch is identical. This could produce a phase offset. So allow me to humbly retract my claim and suggest that all filters involved in diversity RX should, ideally, have matched bandwidths. In addition to eliminating phase offset in situations like I described, it will result in nearly identical close-in dynamic range performance for both receivers. Having a wide filter on just one of the receivers might leave it open to adjacent signals, detracting from the 'pure' experience of diversity mode that I'd like you to have ;) Thanks, Lyle (KK7P) for catching this. 73, Wayne --- http://www.elecraft.com ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] On The Appalachian Trail again
Hello, Today was a very enjoyable day out on the Appalachian Trail. I parked my car around 17:25 UTC and hiked into one of my favorite operating locations in PA. The trail was covered in 4 of snow with another 2 of ice under the snow. So it was a little slippery on the AT today. I arrived at my location and setup my portable vertical. I had a sked with Carter de N3AO in VA. I was not sure if we were going to make the contact. Carter was my first QSO back in March of 2000 on the AT. So I thought that the first 1k QSO's went so well I needed to have Carter as 1,001 for the next 1K. I got on 40m and called Carter, to my surprise I heard the call WB3AAL de N3AO. This was a Great Way to start out the 2009 season out on the trail. I had a good day meeting new people and talking to some old friends. The following is my log from the day. 40m Carter de N3AO in VA 40m John de W2YBN in NC 20m Roger de KA9UDA in CA Wow the band was open. 30m Allan de K7GT in OR 40m Jim de VE3DJX in Ontario 40m Dale de W4OP in NC 40m Stu de WD4LZC in KY 40m Aaron de N9SKN in IL 40m Allen de WA8IWK in MI 40m Bob de K8JPM in OH The bands were not it bad shape, there was some QSB but over all they were is good shape. Around 20:00 UTC I was trying to work a couple of German stations that were on the frequency near me. The one station heard me but just could not pull me out of the noise. The wx started out in the mid 40's with the sun shining and the wind blowing. When the cloudy rolled in the temperature went down to the low 40's. It was still a very nice day to be out on the trail. Thanks to the guys that worked me and to those that tried to work me, this is always another day. 72 and Thanks, Ron Polityka WB3AAL www.wb3aal.com www.n3epa.org/ K1 - SN 01011 K2 - SN 01392 ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

It would be nice to have an Elecraft QSO party again. 73 Ty, W1TF, GA, K1 #1423, K3 #696. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] IO Issues with K3 - Part II
Looks like an issue with the USB adapter. Hooked a straight RS232 serial cable (redundant) from COM1 to the Rig. Works now. Lee In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply. If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it. If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.

Lost connection with the rig from N1MM logger. Cannot re-establish connection now with anything included the k3 utility. I wonder if RF got to something? Running the Prolific drivers and the USB adapter. Changed ports. Turned off and on CPU and associated USB hubs, cycled the K3nada. Any one have an idea?

[Elecraft] For Sale K3
this is more radio than I care to deal with. That's why I sold my Drake C Line in 1978, the performance gain and cost didn't seem worth all the adjusting I needed to do each QSY. So I bought a TS520 and a KW. I'd like to think that after the K3 has been configured it would be as easy to use as a TS440 but for some maybe not so much. It's taken me a year of experimenting to get K3 dialed in better than my previous classic HF's (one K3 better than the best points of each), but I had time to do that and the old radios to fall back on in the interim. ;-) I have written in my manual the complete configuration and the radio seems simple enough to operate. Good luck with the sale, you picked a good place to make your post!
