Re: [Elecraft] Monitor in SSB sounds "crummy" K3s?

2016-07-01 Thread HankP
resend to reflector because your email was blocked by spamcop - my lousy 
Centurlylink email system . Ken - I have watched this thread for awhile - while 
I have never had this issue - (with K3 7536) - sometimes when all else fails , 
trying an EEINT process is worth while ( I call that my Elecraft one finger 
salute - ala my 3 ORION s one finger salute when they lost their mind- which 
was a hell of a lot more often than my K3) Incidentally - I saw some talk about 
processing etc - my monitor if I select FASt sounds like my normal voice no EQ 
or processing - switching MON to nor - the TX EQ and processing is VERY 
apparent . Good luck --- Hank K7HP - Original Message -

[Elecraft] Rx antenna for K3's 2nd receiver

2016-07-01 Thread Ken G Kopp
My K3's second receiver is connected directly to the BNC antenna connector
with a TMP M/F jumper cable I made, and is permanently connected to a 6M
omni antenna.  It's (only) used for listening for 6M openings.

Re: [Elecraft] Monitor in SSB sounds "crummy" K3s?

2016-07-01 Thread Don Wilhelm

Ken,

Do you have the TX EQ *and the RX EQ set to zero for all bands?
The monitor can give you a double-whammy since it feeds through both 
equalizers if I recall correctly.

Thanks Don.

Part of my reasoning for posting was that this feature might 
increase sales of P3s. Given the relative lack of interest, I 
think it remains a user mod. (But my K3 might look nice with 2

Re: [Elecraft] [K3, k3S] for the Sub Receiver

2016-07-01 Thread Don Wilhelm

Leroy,

The subRX will normally use the transmit antenna, be that ANT1 or ANT2 - 
there is a 3 dB splitter inserted to feed both the main and the subRX.


Now --- *if* (and only if) you select the AUX antenna for the subRX, 
then the antenna connection that you have plugged into the rear of the 
subRX will be used - whether that be the BNC connector or the 
non-transmit antenna.


So decide on which TMP cable you want to connect to the subRX AUX ANT input.
If you want it to be a receiving antenna, then I think it is best to 
connect the BNC jack.
If instead you have two antennas, both of which are transmit capable, 
then you may want to connect the subRX AUX ANT to the KAT3.  When the 
subRX AUX antenna is selected, receive for the subRX will be from the 
non-transmit antenna - in other words, if you select ANT1, the subRX 
will use ANT2 - and vice-versa.

Don W3FPR

Re: [Elecraft] [K3, k3S] for the Sub Receiver

2016-07-01 Thread Dick Dievendorff
There are figures on pages 43 thru 45 of the K3S owner's manual (and similar
pictures are in the K3 owner's manual)

There are two relays that route signal to the sub RX. 

One of the options you have is picking the sub receiver's input from the
main rx antenna path. That's the one I use.  Tap ANT while in BSET to choose
main path or AUX RF source.

Re: [Elecraft] Monitor in SSB sounds "crummy" K3s?

2016-07-01 Thread Fred Jensen
Ken, I think there's something wrong.  I don't frequent SSB much but 
when I do the monitor always sounds fine.  I just tried my K3 #642, 
fairly long in the tooth but with a fairly late FW if not the latest, 
and I sound just fine to myself, for whatever that's worth.  There are 
so many new menu choices since I first built mine, it's possible there 
could be something there ... like CONFIG:MONITOR CRUMMY/GOOD :-)), but I 
really doubt it.  How does it sound on CW or RTTY or other digital mode? 
 You may be at the "call Elecraft" point.

You DO know that anything you "delete" is actually stored in the "Re-Cycle

there it is.

If you delete it from the Re-Cycle Bin, it is truly gone forever (unless

Ken,

Is the Monitor level too high?
Are you using speakers for the monitor audio?  That will certainly 
cause feedback because the mic will pick up sound from the 
speakers.  You can use headphones with high isolation.


I would suggest a better way to evaluate the microphone response is 
to make a recording and then play it back.  If you have the DVR 
installed, that is a perfect tool for doing that recording.  If no 
DVR, use the monitor to send audio to your computer soundcard and 
record it with an application like Audacity (an open source and free 
audio editor).


The intent of the monitor function is to give the user of headphones 
some audio in the phones because it is easier than speaking into a 
microphone without that acoustical reinforcement.  For that purpose, 
it does not have to represent the full audio response - but I agree 
it should not be distorted by design.

Re: [Elecraft] [K3, k3S] Panadapter for the Sub Receiver

2016-07-01 Thread Bill Frantz

Thanks Don.

Part of my reasoning for posting was that this feature might 
increase sales of P3s. Given the relative lack of interest, I 
think it remains a user mod. (But my K3 might look nice with 2 
P3s on top of it. :-)

Bill,

Getting the IF output from the subRX is not a problem, but 
adding the 'new protocols' would likely be a problem.


So if you just want to monitor the band around wherever the 
subRX is tuned, that part is easy, just add an IF output to the 
subRX. I have done that to one customer's K3, it is not difficult.

could attach a second P3 to the K3 sub receiver.


It seems simple. You would need an IF out from the sub 
receiver, and some new protocols on the aux bus. e.g. QSY on 
the sub P3 QSYs the sub receiver. etc.

Subject: [Elecraft] Monitor in SSB sounds "crummy" K3s?

Hi all

I've been trying to set up a couple different microphones with my K3s
and have noticed they all sound horrible using MONITOR but on another
radio, they sound good. Specifically, it doesn't take much level
before they sound distorted, and way too."midrangy?" whereas
listening to it on 2 other local radios they sound fine.

So am I overlooking something? I can't imagine the MONITOR audio path
would be that bad by design

Re: [Elecraft] Monitor in SSB sounds "crummy" K3s?

2016-07-01 Thread Don Wilhelm

Ken,

Is the Monitor level too high?
Are you using speakers for the monitor audio?  That will certainly cause 
feedback because the mic will pick up sound from the speakers.  You can 
use headphones with high isolation.


I would suggest a better way to evaluate the microphone response is to 
make a recording and then play it back.  If you have the DVR installed, 
that is a perfect tool for doing that recording.  If no DVR, use the 
monitor to send audio to your computer soundcard and record it with an 
application like Audacity (an open source and free audio editor).


The intent of the monitor function is to give the user of headphones 
some audio in the phones because it is easier than speaking into a 
microphone without that acoustical reinforcement.  For that purpose, it 
does not have to represent the full audio response - but I agree it 
should not be distorted by design.

Re: [Elecraft] kt0ny

2016-07-01 Thread Tony Estep
Hi Bill,

Sorry, I did not notice that your original email referred to the K3 until I
had already sent a reply. I'll be darned if I know why the database isn't
reflecting your transmissions with the K3, since drift is essentially zero
(at least with mine). I assume you're xmting on the right frequency, which
of course you will be if you are decoding signals okay. The only way I know
to check for such a close freq tolerance is to run a WSPR listening program
on another rig. A no-drift signal will be a perfect horizontal line, while
a drifty one will show up as a curve. Maybe you can check with a nearby
ham...?

Do you have the transmit audio gain set right? When WSPR is transmitting,
you should show 4 dots, with the 5th just flickering. Here's a word from
the expert. It refers to PSK, but the same applies to WSPR:

best of luck,

Where there is adequate total volume, a simple in-line control is cheap and 
effective.

Just set the master rig volume high enough for the deafest user, and everyone

[Elecraft] KX2 Evaluation Up Date

2016-07-01 Thread Jim GM
 I worked 15 stations on Field Day weekend with in an hour on my 160m antenna 
on 20M. Worked just fine.

Started to use N1MM logging and attested programming F keys for CW found the 
infor on line and help from K9JWV got it working through only ONE USB port. Do 
not know what the KY codes are or where they came from.  Some of the function 
keys on the program needs to be reprogrammed in N1MM and have not found out 
where or what to put in yet.  Progress is slow but making progress.

Showed off my New KX2 at about 4 Field Day sites and most were impressed on the 
size and what it could do. I did not have N1MM working at the time. Maybe I 
would have gotten  more jaws dropped if I had that Canadian program running. No 
one afford to connect my KX2 to their Field Day antenna and give it a ride.  I 
found that strange.  Maybe I should have offered  Found that a bit strange

Now if I can switch the keys with Windows 10 and just let the F buttons work 
like F buttons and not  do brightness and the sort, I will be in good shape.

If the headsets don’t have volume controls, you can use a simple headphone

In my geography, there is a definite divide relative to spending money on radio

On the other side of the ledger, unless they get the equipment for free, they

Many of us bring our complete K3 stations to Field Day.  This actually gives 
lots of folks who show up the chance to operate a really well integrated radio

There were some other challenges, most notably the ability to control the 
volume level at each headset.  Getting an operator and a logger to agree on a 
volume level ranks right after gaining world peace.

Re: [Elecraft] [K3, k3S] Panadapter for the Sub Receiver

2016-07-01 Thread Don Wilhelm

Bill,

Getting the IF output from the subRX is not a problem, but adding the 
'new protocols' would likely be a problem.


So if you just want to monitor the band around wherever the subRX is 
tuned, that part is easy, just add an IF output to the subRX. I have 
done that to one customer's K3, it is not difficult.

receiver.


It seems simple. You would need an IF out from the sub receiver, and 
some new protocols on the aux bus. e.g. QSY on the sub P3 QSYs the sub 
receiver. etc.

Re: [Elecraft] K3s & FM filter

2016-07-01 Thread Don Wilhelm

Gary,

You must use the 2.8 (or 2.7)kHz filter for SSB, Data, and CW transmit.
The 13kHz filter can be used for AM and FM transmit.

Wondering about re-orienting the filters between my K3 & K3s. If I
put the FM filter in my K3s, can it be safely configured to transmit
properly on SSB on all bands? Or must I use a 2.8 MHz to do this?

Thanks & 73,
