Re: [Elecraft] Sudden K3 failure

2019-07-26 Thread Mpridesti via Elecraft
Sorry- did not fully see the problem 

The receiver is not working on any band not just 40. Sounds like band noise on 
all bands (sounds the same on every band).  Did a comparison with a second K3 
to confirm the no receiver problem on all bands. 

Previously found by rotating some of the tmp connectors on the SYN boards, got 
the TX problem to go away. So this “no receive” seems unrelated.

[Elecraft] K3 - Do I need K144XV Reference Lock Board?

2019-07-26 Thread Alex Malyava
Hi,
I am upgrading my 4-yeas old K3 (not K3S) with 2M option, got the K144XV
already.
The radio will be used for 2M EME...
Do I need to install that Reference Lock Board?
I am afraid so :)

Description on Elecraft website is fuzzy, something like "If you do FM only
- you dont need, it... use it for CW SSB".

What will it give me in absolute numbers, like PPM or Hz?
How bat it is without the board?

Thanks,
Alex K2BB

Re: [Elecraft] [K2] Very Low SSB on 20 Meters

2019-07-26 Thread Don Wilhelm
Check everything in CW transmit first, including the VFO frequencies at 
the band edges.
Then check your SSB filter alignment (and CW too) with Spectrogram to 
make certain the filter passbands are aligned correctly.  The FL1 filter 
for both USB and LSB must be set to OP1.


Set things properly in receive and then check transmit.

Re: [Elecraft] [K2] Very Low SSB on 20 Meters

2019-07-26 Thread Don Wilhelm

James,

As I indicated, with the K2, the LSB used on 17 meters and below is the 
same sideband as used for USB on 15 meters and above. Since the 6 meter 
transceiver uses a 28 MHz IF (assuming it is an Elecraft XV50), then the 
USB transmission will be the same as the LSB transmission on the lower 
bands.


In other words, you need to look for a problem different than a LSB/USB 
problem.

Re: [Elecraft] [K2] Very Low SSB on 20 Meters

2019-07-26 Thread Don Wilhelm

James,

Is this a K2 or a K3?
In the K2, the sidebands are reversed on 15 meters and above, and there 
is no 6 meters in the K2.


What I am saying is that if LSB works on the lower bands, then USB 
should work on 15 meters and above - if this is a K2.  If it is a K3, 
then ignore my responses.


If A K2, then try 17 meters USB.

[Elecraft] A new release of Win4K3Suite is now available

2019-07-26 Thread Tom
Hello,
There is a new version of Win4K3Suite available, version 2.006. If you use
N1MM and the Spectrum broadcast from Win4K3Suite this release fixes an issue
with this configuration.

Win4K3Suite is a full featured control program for the K3/S, KX3 and KX2.
It has a built in Panadapter that works with LPPAN and a sound card, as well
as the SDRPlay RSP's. It supports the KAT500, KPA500/1500 and the KXPA100 on
most of the above radios.  A unique feature is that is has 6 built in
Virtual Radios, each of which works just like an Elecraft radio.  This
allows sharing of a single COM port with up to 6 applications.  It also has
a built in HRDLogbook server and the EiBi Shortwave database which is now up
to date.
You see more information here:
https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=win4k3suite
and download a fully functional 30 day trial at va2fsq.com

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Yahoo User group

Bryan,
Interesting. I just received my first digest from the group in a LONG time; I 
thought the group died. But I got in without need for an ATT account.

I would like it. I use minimal AGC and it would be ear protection.

Re: [Elecraft] K3S HDSDR as a panadapter with IF out

2019-07-26 Thread Conrad PA5Y
Hi Gernot this does not work, the Perseus has an ExtIO.dll for HDSDR so for an 
input I selected Perseus HF Receiver.  However you set me along the right path.

Input mode for RX is I left Q right.
RF Front end calibration SDR on IFD output controlled by Omni-Rig (2 in my case)
Full sync in both directions.
IF frequency 8215000 Hz
Global offset in my case is -2435 Hz but I have not yet calibrated the K3S as I 
will be locking to 10 MHz as soon as the hardware arrives.

I have also found it best to only Sync to omnirig  and not from omnirig to 
allow VFO fine tuning without Omnirig and the K3 VFO fighting with each other.

That's it and it seems to work well but I may change a few things, I have the 
Perseus set to 500 kS/S so I can see 450kHz of band, I am not sure what the BW 
of the IF output is but it looks flat.
