[Elecraft] Elecraft K3 Service backed-up
This is just for information, if you had planned to have a service update or repair done to your K3 before the big DX Contests (CQWWSSB) start up again in late October you have probably missed the boat with Elecraft Service. I sent my K3 in for repair four weeks ago (one week transit to west coast) and last week I was told it would be on the bench this week. Now a week later I'm told it will be on the bench hopefully next week (4 weeks) from check-in time and best case a six week turnaround time for a repair. When I got my RFA from Elecraft it was a 2 week back-log for repair and now were at 4 weeks. So, you may want to start looking for a repair service with faster turn-around times in order to be ready for contest season. 73 Bill W4RM __ 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] Fans
The Noctua quiet fans are readily available in the UK (Scan computers and others) so I bought a pair. Are there quieter fans for the KPA500 as its more than a bit noisy on RTTY at 100watts or so.

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft K3S: First Impressions
Congratulations Byron!! Thank you for sharing your experience. It really helps guys like me who have saved up and waiting to order. Jerry Moore AE4PB, Future K3S owner -Original Message- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Byron Peebles Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2015 9:23 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Elecraft K3S: First Impressions I've played with the new K3S for a little over a week now. I'm still gainfully employed, so my hours of operation have been limited. But, I think it's probably the proper time for initial impressions. First, the Elecraft people are beyond impressive. Whether it was pre-sale advice, the offer of extra support when the radio arrived, or the way they approach continuous improvement, these folks are tops. They would need to make a pretty crappy product to not have a loyal following just based on their own attitudes, and the products are well, awesome, too. I thought this was my first Elecraft, but I used a K2 briefly about ten years ago. It was used, not functioning perfectly and for some reason I sold it before the magic took hold. Instead, I've been using Kenwood, Yaesu and TenTec top-line rigs that I've found used from local hams. Each of those righs served me well, and each change was an upgrade in technology and performance. The Elecraft K3S is a significant advance for me. Over the years I had grown quite accustomed to use of the Orion II features, and in contests and DXing it was the best radio I'd ever owned. But as the TenTec aged, and future service options seemed to be dimming, I shipped it off to the TenTec folks for service and ordered the K3S. I went on vacation so the lack of a radio didn't cause a nervous breakdown. Hello, Disney. I'm a DXer and a single-op contester. I haven't been the srious contester I was at one time, but I still value those skills in both operators and equipment. So, I made sure to try the K3S in one or two contests, even if only for a few contacts. The North American QSO Party wasn't much of a challenge for the radio. Since *most* operators run without their amplifier, the signals tend to be better spread out, and since it's mostly a domestic contest, it seems there's a more casual element operating. The Elecraft almost made HF seem channelized in that I'd tune in a signal and that's all I'd hear. One signal. Tune again, one signal. Tune again. And so on. I was starting to think it needed buttons like the car radio. I experimented with the CW reader, without much luck. I've seen videos of others using it, but never got it to work as well as my brain (no comments, please) so I quickly gave up. Yes, I did the CWT and SPOT and all that. I will try that again some slow night. I later tried the Worked All Europe. While I operating the NAQP on 40m QRP, I did WAE on 40m at 100W. I worked everyone I heard in one call. and although the bands were more crowded, there were no times when I had any trouble squeezing out the noise for the signal I wanted. The filtering is pretty intuitive when you realize how it works, a usability impro9vement over the Orion. So, two contests of far different style, but in both cases I felt the receiver, the audio and the filtering were a vast improvement. I started working to get my headset mic working. Initially the audio was much too low for people to hear me, and I played with TEST mode and MONitoring to get that improved. That made QRP possible again, and also made any call under power a one-call contact. Pileup, what pileup? Very nice. Audio from the recevier also excellent. It too 15 minutes to get my computer software properly configured after the Windows 10 upgrade and the change of radios. But everything that worked before the change works at least as good afterwards. It took some time to get the K3 Utility on the proper port (USB), but once I had that up and running, things were better. Loading CW memories and (rotating) Macros was easy, and once I realized what the button numbers were for the macros I was reprogramming the PF keys at an irrational pace. HI I've only used the K3S on CW and SSB. I never did get a decent DATA station going with my previous radios, but this one seems worth a try. So, that's my next challenge: getting on RTTY/PSK and getting my first DX. So, this is a very solid transceiver. This one (10072) is configured with both receivers having 2.8, 2.1, 1.0, 0.5 and 0.25 filters. It includes the ATU and the 100W option. It works really well. There is a lot of talk about how expensive it is. I hesitated because of that factor, but I don't jhave one ounce of regret. And how you know why I'm still gainfully employed. This is one of those rewards!

[Elecraft] FLDigi and N1MM Plus Problems

If I go to transmit, the K3 transmits, but I don't get any ALC Bars, plus it doesn't make the normal sounds that it should for Rtty during transmit. Now, if I get out of N1MM and just use FLDigi, there are no problems whatsoever. I am totally perplexed with this.

Re: [Elecraft] FLDigi and N1MM Plus Problems
I am confused - you have N1MM saying PSK, but you are trying to transmit RTTY - the two do not mix. Data A may be OK, but optimum for RTTY is AFSK A. The sideband is LSB (DATA A is USB). Since you have no problems with Fldigi alone, then the problem must be with the introduction of N1MM. You may find some clues on the N1MM forum. 73, Don W3FPR On 8/14/2015 10:04 PM, pastor...@verizon.net wrote: Good Evening, This is Mark Griffin KB3Z.

Now, if I get out of N1MM and just use FLDigi, there are no problems whatsoever. I am totally perplexed with this. Has anyone had any success in using Fldigi with N1MM plus and getting your K3 to transmit rtty the normal way? Any help would be much appreciated. If I can't get it to work I might try MMTTY.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 use for broadcast reception
Leave the ATU in normal mode. The KX3 uses it a filter below 1.8MHz, in order to block out strong stations. A long wire antenna is probably a good idea. wunder K6WRU CM87wj http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) On Aug 14, 2015, at 8:58 AM, Robert Sands k7vora...@gmail.com wrote: Do I need to change settings to optimize reception of AM broadcast?

[Elecraft] K3 - no TX on 20 and up
I know this is something I have forgotten to do: For the first time in a couple of years I went to use 20 meters on USP. Got no joy - hears well but no TX. Works fine on 160/75/40. What did I forget to do? __ 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
