Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 WAKE ON LAN problem

[Hisashi T Fujinaka]

I've been told you need to wake the thing up with a bunch of semicolons.
Also, Wake-on-LAN is a directed special packet that maybe is not going
over the wire correctly?

My KPA1500 is near my K3, so I've been using the K3/K3S rear panel 12V
DC OUT RCA connector to the KPA1500 REM RCA connector to wake it up.

If the power on the KPA1500 front panel is OFF, LOCAL CONNECT will 
occasionally not find the KPA. This problem appears to occur after a long 
disconnect such as over night. Turning the power on by hand fixes the 
problem.


Has anybody else experienced this?

Everything works as it should if I use the USB interface.

It appears that WAKE ON LAN does not always work.

Re: [Elecraft] Rights

Not true. Officers pledge an oath to defend the Constitution. Enlisted 
also swear to obey orders from the President. I won't post again to this

Re: [Elecraft] KPA-1500 Efficiency

[Jeff Blaine]

There's no way 40W drives exactly 1500W on all bands.  Here's what I get 
into a DL (no tuner).  Power measurements based on the LP100 which was 
calibrated by Larry last year - not what I would call a current cal but 
certainly better than a generic Bird.  Feed with a key-down in CW, with 
the data taken after about 5 seconds to get a stable reading.  Dont' 
take the values as gospel.  There is at least a 50w error range.


160        1644W

80            1466W

40            1515W

20            1436W

15        1371W

10        1414W

But it's definitely unrealistic to assume that the amp should have a 
uniform gain vs. frequency response.  The gain is going to be related to 
many things.


There is a LPF hanging off the back and it's insertion loss is a factor 
- and it's going to drift a touch as it heats up.  Theres the front  end 
which likly a pad.  The overall gain is be in compliance with the FCC 
regulation.  Most SS amps native gain is such that a few watts is enough 
to get LL output levels and I'm sure that's the case with the LDMOS even 
if they have a ton of NFB in the design.  Plus the effects of the 
combiners internally which are definitely not going to be completely 
flat.  And there is some compression that gets to be easily measurable 
once you hit about the KW level.  And temp.  And who knows what else.

I find the gain of the amp very different from band to band. For 
example on 80M mine takes 32W to produce 1500W into a dummy load, and 
15M it takes 47W to produce 1500W in to a dummy load. That's a 
variation of 1.7dB, not very flat.


Also as others have reported as the amp warms up the gain decreases a 
little (requires a bit more drive).

Scott:

Are you saying a retired colonel in the U.S. military does not have the
right to express his feelings? Or, are you saying that if someone does not
agree you with you find them offensive? Either way is narrow minded.

I find not allowing people to have and express an opinion different than
mine to be refreshing and a door opener to interesting conversations,

[Elecraft] [KPA1500] Auto start KPA1500-Remote in host mode ?

[Paul Christensen]

Loaded the KPA1500 remote software this evening.  Some observations:

1)  Cannot run local *and* remote server host simultaneously when using
USB connectivity.  I am hoping this limitation can be overcome when I add an
Ethernet cable at the remote site in addition to USB connectivity.  Reason?
One remote user wants to control the KPA1500 via TeamViewer through the
local connect while I want to run the amp using the remote utility as a
client on my mobile PC desktop;

2)  Switching between local and host server modes is sluggish.  It takes
time for Windows to release the USB COM port when changing between the two
modes.  In one instance, I had to disable the COM port in Windows' device
manager, then re-enable.

Despite these issues, I wish to thank the Elecraft team for their work on
the program.

Paul, W9AC

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Firmware update fails.... ME TOO

[bill steffey]

I had changed the location of the downloaded files... to other than default...
and once I changed the location back to default the utility was very happy.
Got it all done...thanks

Bill,

The firmware update is a 2 step process.  The 
first is to download the firmware files to your 
computer (check for new files at Elecraft), and 
the 2nd is to load those files from your 
computer to the P3/K3/etc and requires you to 
click on Send Files to P3/K3/etc".


From those messages, you are apparently failing 
on the first step.  Try again and if it continues, contact your ISP.

-All files are present in the "P3 firmware" folder (Windows 10 1803 build

Any ideas please?

The very nature of this survey is heavily skewed. DX World is not a website 
than Barry Baofeng, Nathan Netminder or Hammy Hambone are ever going to visit.

My IP addresses are sane as both the PC and the KPA1500  have valid

The process name shows up in task list as "KPA500-Remote", though I know 
it's really the KPA1500 version of the app.


Constructive suggestions welcomed.

Re: [Elecraft] DX World Transceiver survey

[kstover]

It doesn't really mean anything. Nobody has ever heard of the website before
today and they've got to be giggling about the surge it website hits.

Now if this had been done on a high traffic site like QRZ.com and none of
the manufacturers in the survey were "major" contributors to the website I
might pay attention. I'll be willing to bet a huge can of worms that if
Elecraft hangs on for the win the survey will be buried in the bowels of the
internet never to see the light of day. If Icom pulls off a "miraculous"
comeback the survey will be much ballyhooed and quoted as gospel. Maybe
making the hallowed pages of QST.

Surveys that collect information from the users of the service or product don’t 
usually publish volume or number of units sold.  They will publish information 
on numbers of persons surveyed or break down numbers per product type.

It is a totally different type of “survey” that reports on product comparisons 
including units sold and so forth.  That kind of survey is what you would 
expect from a Consumer Reports product review, not a survey of users.

Usually, a survey that requests you to pick from a selection of products is no 
different then a high school popularity contest.  And, most surveys are like 
this.  Including those political polling surveys.

But, there are serious surveys too.  I once did a survey for Consumer Reports 
on a new car purchase.  It took me 30 minutes to finish.  I think it had on the 
order of 100+ questions.  It was years ago and not even an on-line survey.  I 
can’t remember how many pages were involved but it was enough to result in an 
extra heavy return envelope though postage was prepared.  I had to mark a whole 
lot of little check boxes and so on with a black pen.

[Elecraft] [KPA1500] Auto start KPA1500-Remote in host mode ?

I'm looking to get the KPA1500-Remote utility to survive these darn

Remote utility to auto-start FB after a reboot.


However, it doesn't remember it was in "Host Remote" mode and just comes

unattended PC running RCForb.  I'm using it in "Ethernet" mode, though 
the KPA1500's USB cable is also connected to the same PC for RCForb.


There doesn't seem to be any command line options yet, or at least 
nothing is documented or listed from a /h, /help, or /? command line 
parameter.


Am I missing something in the setup dialogs?

Other observations:

When the "Start Hosting Remote" command button is clicked, I get the 
warning dialog: "IP Address Appears not to be a Local IP or Invalid IP..."


My IP addresses are sane as both the PC and the KPA1500  have valid 
addresses in the 192.168.x.x address space.  Could this warning dialog 
be getting in the way of the auto-start of Hosting Remote mode.


The process name shows up in task list as "KPA500-Remote", though I know 
it's really the KPA1500 version of the app.


Constructive suggestions welcomed.

KPA1500 Remote version 1.0.14.0

FTdx9000 did not have identical receivers.  All of yaesu's dual
receiver transceivers have a grossly inferior second receiver.

In addition, the two receivers are not phase locked so they
suffer from platform motion as the local oscillators drift
relative to each other.

Re: [Elecraft] DX World Transceiver survey

[Peter W2IRT]

The very nature of this survey is heavily skewed. DX World is not a website 
than Barry Baofeng, Nathan Netminder or Hammy Hambone are ever going to visit.

Surveys that collect information from the users of the service or product don’t 
usually publish volume or number of units sold.  They will publish information 
on numbers of persons surveyed or break down numbers per product type.

It is a totally different type of “survey” that reports on product comparisons 
including units sold and so forth.  That kind of survey is what you would 
expect from a Consumer Reports product review, not a survey of users.

Usually, a survey that requests you to pick from a selection of products is no 
different then a high school popularity contest.  And, most surveys are like 
this.  Including those political polling surveys.

But, there are serious surveys too.  I once did a survey for Consumer Reports 
on a new car purchase.  It took me 30 minutes to finish.  I think it had on the 
order of 100+ questions.  It was years ago and not even an on-line survey.  I 
can’t remember how many pages were involved but it was enough to result in an 
extra heavy return envelope though postage was prepared.  I had to mark a whole 
lot of little check boxes and so on with a black pen.

Re: [Elecraft] Info - driver - Gigaware USB cable

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

I did purchase a Gigaware USB to serial converter cable from Radio Shack 
as I recall.   Loaded the drivers that came on the CD with the 
purchase.  Spent several hours over several days trying to get the thing 
to work.  It would almost work but gave me errors or didn't work at all. 
   Finally threw the entire thing in the trash and uninstalled the 
drivers.


Purchased a USB to serial cable from R T Systems.  All issues were 
resolved and every thing works as it should.

Ricardo,

No personal experience w/ any Gigaware USB to serial devices, but I’ve used

This seems like it is really an OS X (unless you are using a _really_ old Mac)

I’d suggest a bit of rummaging around on the web.   You’ll probably have to be 
more specific about version of OS X you are using, but

google on "Gigaware USB to serial cable osx” turns up plenty of interesting

Prolific chipsets.

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Firmware update fails.... ME TOO

[Don Wilhelm]

Bill,

The firmware update is a 2 step process.  The first is to download the 
firmware files to your computer (check for new files at Elecraft), and 
the 2nd is to load those files from your computer to the P3/K3/etc and 
requires you to click on Send Files to P3/K3/etc".


From those messages, you are apparently failing on the first step.  Try 
again and if it continues, contact your ISP.

I may be mistaken, but I believe the IC-7610 can do that without buying
optional accessories, since
 I used that feature during the June VHF contest on six meters, and it was
quite an eye-opener.

After using it for 7 years I have really grown to like it. One great feature
is the ability to use two separate receive antennas with Diversity

If this was suggested before, I missed it and apologize for the redundancy.
Has the rig inadvertently been put into the test mode? If the TX indicator

Re: [Elecraft] K3 No power out

[Jim Blanca]

Don,
Have you tried transmitting at 10 watts, and do you get RF output?  Do you
also loose receive when you pass the 12 watt threshold? If you have any of
these symptoms, good chance it’s a PIN T/R malfunction.

My beloved K3 was doing the same thing... one day she was running like a
champ, next day the high power amp up and quite.  She is now back at the
mothership being revived.  Fortunately, I have another K3 and K3s to put in
line.

Good luck in resuscitating her!

[Elecraft] K3

[John Harden, D.M.D.]

I purchased my K3 in 2011 when I took a lightening strike to my Orion I. 
After using it for 7 years I have really grown to like it. One great 
feature is the ability to use two separate receive antennas with 
Diversity Receive... No other transceiver has this feature..


Plus being retired military I DO NOT purchase RICE BOX gear... Only 
American..


73,

John, W4NU

(K4JAG 1959 to 1998)
