Re: [Elecraft] Spam filtering
Hi Rich, No problems. We are many hundreds of miles north and south of the fires here on the Monterey Bay. (About at the middle of the state on the coast.).

[Elecraft] K2/100 Package For Sale
I have a K2/100 for sale. I acquired it a year ago from another amateur. He demonstrated it for me and I saw that it worked. I have not used it since then. Included: - Elecraft K2/100 HF Transceiver with 100W amplifier and RS232 I/O module - K2DSP internal DSP filter and real-time clock - KSB2 SSB adapter - KNB2 noise blanker - K60XV 60m and transverter adapter - K160RX 160M module - External KAT100 automatic antenna tuner It's in good condition and everything works. However, as I said I never sat down and used it. Instead, I retired and moved to Thailand where I now live. I wanted a K2 because it's on the Thai government's short list of type approved transceivers, i.e., it doesn't cover 6m or 70cm, which aren't currently legal bands here). Once I arrived I discovered that I can't ever get a Thai ham license because Canada doesn't have a reciprocal licensing agreement with Thailand. So the K2 is of no further use to me. The equipment is still in Canada. My friend VE3EG, Keith is handling the sale and shipping on my behalf. You can direct questions to me, but I will turn things over to Keith once we have ourselves a deal. Price for the package is Cdn $1,400 (about U.S. $1,060 at current exchange rates). Shipping is extra and is based shipping from Toronto to your QTH. Many thanks and 73!

[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement
Good Evening, It is easier to see through the woods because almost all of the leaves have fallen. The hours we have with which to see those woods has diminished. I can't seem to get things done before dark because it starts so early. Well this has effected the nets. I plan to run both of them earlier than normal. Instead of keeping the local times and changing the UTC numbers I am staying with the Universal time and changing the local. For me that works out to 2 and 4 PM. 4 PM should give us enough time to run the 40 meter net before dark. If those times don't work we'll have to try something else. From what I heard there was a measure on the California ballot to eliminate changing the clock twice a year. Folks in Oregon and Washington are waiting on those results. If all goes well, and the US Congress agrees, we may not have spring ahead and fall back again within a few years. One can dream. Please join us tomorrow on: 14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (2 PM PST Sunday) 7047 kHz at z Monday (4 PM PST Sunday) 73, Kevin.

Re: [Elecraft] Spam filtering
That did used to happen with brute-force algorithms. For the past 15 years or more, spam filtering has been an arms race. Spammers automiatically open a bunch of email accounts on a free provider, then have scripts try different variations until something would get through. Then they hammer the service with that spam until it was blocked. Then try again. Spam can evolve hour-by-hour to find weaknesses in the algorithms. Similar stuff happens with spiders for web search engines. I’m glad to not be in that business any more. wunder K6WRU Walter Underwood CM87wj http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) > On Nov 10, 2018, at 11:26 AM, Dauer, Edward wrote: > > Before the authorities close this useful but somewhat-OT thread, I would > share one anecdote told to me to be true, though I can't personally vouch for > it, about an unnamed university twenty-plus years ago.

[Elecraft] Spam filtering
Before the authorities close this useful but somewhat-OT thread, I would share one anecdote told to me to be true, though I can't personally vouch for it, about an unnamed university twenty-plus years ago. The IT department decided to install filters that would block both incoming and outgoing e-mail that contained offensive language. So they made up a dirty words list, not telling any of the clients what was on it or even that it existed. It was discovered when the Political Science Department got no responses to its e-blast announcement of a conference titled something like "Contemporary Issues in Capitalism, Socialism, and Communitarianism." The word Socialism contains the word Cialis. Or so the story goes.

[Elecraft] FS: KXV3A Transverter Interface
Hello everyone, I have a KXV3A upgrade kit for sale. I just put the KXV3B in my radio so this is no longer used. I have had the KXV3A in my K3 for about two years with zero problems. It has provided the IF output for a P3 and connections to the K144XV 2 meter transverter. It comes with the 2 board set, cable, all hardware, and manual. $110 shipped to any address in the US. I will ship internationally, but the price will be $110 plus postage costs. I can accept Paypal, check, USPS money order or cash.

I need to build/buy an interface cable that will go from the ACC jack on the KX2 to the RCA PTT jack on the miniHFPA2 amp. Can anyone tell me where to get an interface cable or if there is any other interfacing need besides connecting the four conductor plug's sleeve to the ground of the RCA plug and ring 2, key out to the center conductor?

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 new software 1.87
John, I just went thru this and reverted back to the original fan profile with the ^FP0 command using the KPA 1500 utility. What is not mentioned in the release notes is that after you execute this command, you must power cycle the KPA 1500. After that you will have the new firmware with the old fan profile.

I don’t see how a small inconvenience could be a deal breaker. But to each his/her own. My isp screens out most spam, but I had to go to a more robust spam filter after I got on some spammer list that used emails that defeated typical spam screens. I was getting over 300 spam emails a day.
