[Elecraft] ACC2 PTT 2.25/1.30 bug?
Love my KX3 but ran into some strange behavior as of late with some hangs. Running MCU 2.25 / DSP 1.30 when trying to change ACC2IO settings, when I turn VFOA to LO=Ptt the unit hangs on the LO=Ptt option - display freezes at LO=Ptt and I can't PWR off using ATU/BAND-. I've tried re-flashing MCU/DSP firmware with KX3 utility and even tried EEINIT reset - still the same hanging on ACC2IO menu. Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas for a fix?

[Elecraft] Digikeyer Connection to K3

[Elecraft] High vertical
I have an apartment on the top floor of a 10-story building with a small roof area accessible and restrictions on antenna size. I asked for advice here about antennas, and got a lot of suggestions and help, so I thought I would post my results. I put up an R8 vertical on a small building (containing my shack) that sits on the roof. The base of the antenna is about 35m above the ground. It sits on a 1m tall mast which is connected to the roof with a hinge-type mount and is guyed at two levels with 4 PES marine ropes at each level. The feedline is about 10m of RG/213. I used two homemade ferrite chokes, one near the antenna and one at the entrance to the shack, because I was concerned about RFI and receive noise. Results so far have been, in a word, great! I seem to be able to work anything I can hear, mostly with my barefoot K3. I have only used my amp a few times. I am getting good reports and breaking pileups right and left (all this on CW, of course). The antenna is not as bad as I thought it would be for receive noise, but it is not as clean as my Pixel Loop, which is exceptionally quiet. My experience with similar antennas at lower heights was not as good (yes, my call makes me DX for some, but not for the DXpeditions whose pileups I get through on the first or second call). All in all, life without a beam can be very enjoyable if you can put a vertical up high enough. -- 73, Vic, K2VCO/4X6GP Rehovot, Israel http://www.qsl.net/k2vco/ __ 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
[Elecraft] KX1 and Anker LION battery
I use an Elecraft KX1 and an Anker Astro Pro2 LION battery when I go QRP in the field. The combination works very well, and allows me to run the KX1 at the full 3 watt level. However, the last two times I used this arrangement, I had the Anker battery shut down on me. It would power right back up, but , still, it was disconcerting. After finally reading about the battery and doing some in house testing, I finally figured out that the KX1 draws such little current while idling (good thing), that it fooled the battery enough that the Anker's auto shut off (also a good thing, if you are actually charging a device) kicked in. I didn't want this, so I started toying with the KX1 to see if I could make it draw enough current while idling. What I finally ended up doing was turning on the small LED light and leaving it on while operating. So far, the battery has been staying on. Not an elegant solution, but SEEMS to work. Anyone have a better idea on how to defeat the auto shutoff of this battery? I have not yet queried Anker about this, but that's next. But, as I mentioned up front, this combination works very well and I am very pleased with the results.

[Elecraft] FS: K2 with seperate amp/tuner and K1.
I'm downsizing since retirement earlier this year, will be on the road with the travel trailer. These item need a new home instead of sitting packed away. I have my KX3, PX3 along with the KXPA 100, it all fits nicely in the trailer. The K2, s/n 6576, was built in late 2011 by Dale Putnam WC7S, with the complete Rework Eliminator kit. Installed in it are SSB option, Antenna tuner, KDSP2 filter with clock, KIO2 RS-232 interface, KBT2 battery kit, no battery. There's an unbuilt noise blanker. There's a weighted VFO knob installed, and an extra top cabinet panel with speaker installed. All the manuals included, along with a MH-2 hand mic and headset adapter. There's two unopened Rework Eliminator kits, KXPD1 clamp for the KX1 paddles to mount to the K2 bail, a cable for connecting the NUE-PSK modem (modem not included). In a separate enclosure is the KPA/KAT 100 amp/tuner with cables to hook to the K2. Both radio and amp are in great condition. Asking $1500.00 for the package, new this would cost almost $2400.00. The K1, s/n 2945, covers 40/30/20/15 meters, has the antenna tuner installed along with the Back Light mod and a weighted knob like the K2 installed. Asking $450.00 for the K1. I will double box and insure, and pay the shipping, only lower 48 thou, no overseas. Paypal, or money order works for me. You will get two boxes with the K2. As with all used electronic equipment, there's no return or refund. You will get working radios when they leave me.

Re: [Elecraft] ACC2 PTT 2.25/1.30 bug?
David, I did not have my brain fully in gear on this situation before. The GPIO input is just that - an input to a 3 volt logic device with only a 500 ohm series resistor. So there is nothing to make it either a high nor a low level. In the digital world it is known as a 'floating input' and without some other (external) hardware addition, it may appear to be either at a high or a low level depending on the "shifting of the winds in the desert" Sooo - that may be a normal response when a LO function is used on the GPIO input signal. Take note of the part in the menu instructions saying that some external interface circuitry may be required. The GPIO input has no pullup resistor to 3 volts to keep it high - that means the voltage just floats at whatever it happens to be. If that voltage happens to be below the logic threshold for a LO level, the function will become active when that menu option is selected - and will happen with nothing connected to the GPIO input. (The same might happen when HI is selected in the menu too). The solution is to bring that input level to a high state with an external pullup resistor. One end of the resistor goes to a voltage source (ideally 3 volts, but up to 5.5 volts will be tolerated. The other end of the resistor goes to the GPIO input (ACC2 connector tip) - and oh yes, the negative of the source powering it would connect to the connector shell. Two AA battery cells in series and a 33K resistor should work nicely and the batteries should last a long time. Then your PTT switch, footpedal, etc. would place a short between the ACC2 connector tip and shell when it is active. Note also that if you make the GPIO menu selections for either HI or LO, that condition may become active any time the plug is removed from the ACC2 jack. In other words, you must connect an external high or low logic level before turning the KX3 on. You may find it easier to build an adapter and use the microphone jack PTT input which has an internal pullup resistor which assures a high state when the PTT circuit is open or inactive. 73, Don W3FPR --- David, Contact KX3support(at)elecraft.com to see if they can offer any additional wisdom.

[Elecraft] KX3 TX Problem
My brother, W8TXT, has a problem with his KX3. In PTT, when he presses XMIT, the KX3 puts out 3 or 4 watts with the cw key still open. When the closes the CW key it puts out 10 to 12 watts and stays at that level. In LSB, he hits PTT and gets the same 3 to 4 watts out without an mic audio. Sometimes the KX3 power out on the display agrees with his watt meter. At other times he does not see any power out indication on the KX3 display. In VOX he gets the same results however, he does see a quick "High Current" message flash up very quickly on the display when he keys it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 TX Problem
Does he want to use CW or voice mode? If he wants to use voice, the mic will pick up whatever is in the room and transmit it. Also, if he wants to operate with voice, he really needs to set it up with the steps on page 15 of the manual.
