[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report
Good Evening, Conditions were fair to OK on both bands. Slow QSB on everyone on both bands. There was a storm somewhere on 40 meters. A steady grumble behind the code. Everyone described cooler weather. Even in California, but they're hoping for less smoke. There are more fires in Oregon, still east of the Cascades. Drought conditions prevail throughout the Great Basin across to the Great Plains. Ken in North Dakota had rain and the start of fall. Dave mentioned rain too. It has been a few weeks but there have been a couple foggy mornings here. Those really help the forest keep moist. Roy had cooler, much less windy weather. At the end of the first net I saw the ferns falling over about thirty feet in front of me. They would fall over and then drag themselves into a hole. I never did see the rodent but I am sure of who was doing it. The local mountain beaver - Aplodontia rufa pacifica. I just found out there is a subspecies living north of San Fransisco: A. rufa nigra. They love to dig burrows into the side-hills, I rarely see them in flatter areas except under piles of slash. They do move around in the daytime but you never see them. They LOVE rhododendrons. Mine rarely have a chance to get very tall, they all get eaten. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_beaver https://web.archive.org/web/20150205002135/http://www.science.smith.edu/msi/pdf/i0076-3519-431-01-0001.pdf On 14050.5 kHz at 2200z: W0CZ - Ken - ND NO8V - John - MI K6XK - Roy - IA K4TO - Dave - KY W8RBF - Allen - MI On 7047.5 kHz at 0045z: W0CZ - Ken - ND K4TO - Dave - KY K0DTJ - Brian - CA K6PJV - Dale - CA I've got "Run Silent, Run Deep" on pause.

Re: [Elecraft] Mac vs WSJT-X
[Resending to actually try to answer the question.] You can use the USB built in to the K3S to set up CAT control. (With a K3, you can use the USB <--> RS232 cable that came with the K3 or is available from Elecraft.) You set up your CAT control in the Preferences->Settings->Radio? Mine shows the serial port "/dev/cu.usbserial-", Baud Rate 38400, Data Bits 8, Stop Bits 1, Handshake None, PTT Method CAT, Split Operation Rig. Note: The above is the serial number built in to the USB<-->RS232 chip in the radio or the cable. It keeps wsjt-x using the correct adapter even if you move the adapter between USB hubs etc. With CAT control, the wsjt-x will correctly display the frequency the K3S is tuned to. Using the frequency widget in wsjt-x, you can change to other frequencies and bands and the K3S will automatically follow. 73 Bill AE6JV On 8/30/20 at 11:22 PM, flat...@comcast.net (Richard) wrote: Mac mini running OS 10.12.6 Sierra K3s connected via SignaLink — don’t want to change that All of the above are playing well together; no problems.

Re: [Elecraft] [K2] Spurious emission in SSB
Chris, I suspect that artifact is being introduced by the Speech Processor on the KSB2 board. Do you know any locals who have a K2? The quickest way to verify my suspicion is to swap out the KSB2 board. BTW - TUNE switches to CW even if in SSB mode. 73, Don W3FPR On 8/30/2020 1:07 PM, G3WIE wrote: I built K2 s/n 253 many years ago, and it's been updated with the A-B kit and all other Elecraft updates.

I'm planning to use the K2 with transverters on 28MHz for the microwave bands. Now that the Elecraft transverter interface is obsolete I plan to use the radio with ~1W output and fit attenuators as required. Looking at the Tx output on my spectrum analyser, I see a spurious tone 900kHz below the tx frequency which is only about 35dB less than the SSB peak output at 1W; that frequency difference does not change with dial frequency. The tone does not change amplitude with power setting over the full range, with speech amplitude, nor with the carrier balance adjustment. It's also present on 21MHz with the same interval. It is not present in Tune in SSB mode, or in CW mode at all. __ 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] Separate Elecraft K3 and K4 Reflectors on Groups.IO
To all, This thread could go on forever. Some want a separate group, some do not. The fact is it is up to the individual as to whether they want to participate in a separate group, the main group (this one) or both. The good part is that when Wayne and/or Eric have a special announcement, they do make an effort to post on the Groups.IO reflectors. I believe they monitor the separate groups (elecraft...@groups.io and elecraft...@groups.io , but I do not have confirmation on that. The bad part is if you just participate in the separate group, you may miss something. If you participate in the main group, there are voluminous e-mails that do not deal with your radio that you have to go through and delete. I have moderated the Elecraft-K3 list for over 10 years, and just signed on to moderate the Elecraft-K4 list. They do serve a purpose, and all are welcome to join. The lists are there, and should you wish to participate, you are certainly welcome to do so. The traffic on those lists will not be as voluminous as this reflector, so joining both shouldn't max out your e-mail box.

Messages from users of the digest that do not change the subject line: Those messages are filtered straight to the trash... When I close Tunderbird the trash is emptied automaically.

Re: [Elecraft] K4 info
The majority of readers of this list own multiple Elecraft products and therefore do have interests in many kinds of posts. Having them addressed on the official Elecraft site is both important and convenient for me. A K4 is not in my plans today but I've been known to change my plans. Like Bill, I get tired of deleting petty "when-is-it-going-to-ship" posts, but that will eventually die down just as it did for the the K3 after it was unveiled at Visalia in April of 2007 but didn't ship until October. It had been rumored far earlier. There is nothing wrong with my K2, K3, KPA500, KX3, KX2, W2, T1, XG3, BL2, or AX1/E. But every once in a while a post on one of them will capture my interest. I delete the rest. As long as posters abide by the long-standing protocol of putting the model in the subject line (preferably at the beginning), it is easy to delete both single and multiple product posts with a mere mouse click. I look forward to reading future posts by K4 owners after they actually own one. 73, Kent K9ZTV On 8/30/2020 9:39 AM, Nr4c wrote: The majority of readers of this list are not waiting for a K4 and therefore have little interest in a lot of traffic related to K4 shipping/deliveries.

I visited all of the booths, and watched maybe 80% of the presentations, both during the live event and afterwards. Couldn’t have cared less about trying to earn points and winning a prize. And of course the Elecraft events. It was unique. And except for not having a BA boneyard to wander through and take too much of my money, the best fest I attended this summer. Well, it was the ONLY fest I attended :-) Your presentation on the 3D KX2 design, was thoroughly enjoyable and very interesting. Eric’s appearances— all three of the them — on the K4, were informative. I do wish the Q after Eric’s official Expo presentation had been posted to the web, and perhaps more so, both of the extended 90 minute Q on the K4. I learned something new in each of them. I had some issues with the expo software itself, which I referred to the organizers as feedback in the questionnaire I received afterwards. But they were largely minor, and mostly just navigation issues. I’m looking forward to the coming one of these next year. Mostly, I’m looking forward to my K4 :-) Grant NQ5T __ 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 eric.swa...@elecraft.com __ 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 t...@w7sua.org __ 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
Re: [Elecraft] Seeking comments on Ham Expo from participants
Hi Wayne, I enjoyed the K4 presentation and the Q that followed. This on-line Ham Expo was a very good idea, especially in this time if travel limits. I still look forward to seeing the K4 in person before finalizing my group 2 purchase. Thanks for the opportunity to comment. 73, tom w7sua Chino Valley AZ On 8/21/2020 4:47 PM, Wayne Burdick wrote: Hi all, I'd like to write up a summary of the recent [virtual] Ham Expo, especially for the benefit of those who weren't able to make it. Perhaps they'll get a chance later this year or next March -- both likely, as the Expo was quite a success overall. It was, shall we say, unique...I'd love to hear about your experiences, good, bad, or in-between. Ideas for future expos are also welcome, whether Elecraft-specific or applicable to the event as a whole. This feedback will also be invaluable for the team that put on the expo, including my good friend Eric Guth, 4Z1UG. (Don't let my acquaintance with Eric inhibit your free expression...he's pure teflon.) Thanks again to all who dropped by our booth.

Re: [Elecraft] K4 info
I think a comment I made started this discussion. I don’t have any problem with anyone setting up a group for anything they want. If K4 users want a distinct group, that’s fine. I’m a subscriber, too. What happens more often than not, though, is that everything gets cross-posted anyway. And the replies get cross-posted, and so on. So thinking that you won’t see posts that don’t interest you on the main reflector because there happens to be a single-product group is a bit parochial. And not everyone with an interest, or who might know something, is going to be a subscriber to the K4 group, or vice-versa. I do agree that I expect my delete key to be very active while everyone is bragging about THEIR K4 being shipped, and the unboxing videos, and the “first reaction” posts, and the issues people find, especially those related to the inevitable failures to RTFM, and all of that. Anyone who’s been hanging around any new product-related reflector knows what to expect, such as long OT threads about 160M antennas, etc :-) All of it is interesting. The delete key (or its filter equivalent) can take care of what isn’t. I’ve personally learned a lot from what seems to be OT posts, or posts about radios I don’t own, both here and on other lists/groups.

The majority of readers of this list are not waiting for a K4 and therefore have little interest in a lot of traffic related to K4 shipping/deliveries.

[Elecraft] K4 info
I support having a separate K4 group. I don't. I filter each Elecraft gear item in separate subfolders under a main folder called Elecraft. The real problem with this is the shear lack of users of this list to mention the type of Elecraft gear they want to talk about. Many users of the K3 for example, probably the most used gear, think: "If I ask something about a setting of something everyone should know I'm talking about my K3", so they end up in the main folder and I have a hard time to get rid of these messages... Messages from users of the digest that do not change the subject line: Those messages are filtered straight to the trash... When I close Tunderbird the trash is emptied automaically. If only we could stick to the RULE that one starts an item with the type of gear I would be very happy because the filter can take good care of this. Please use the reflector and do not divert to yahoo/google/groups.io etc. Share information at one place, do not split it up. 73, Peter - PA0PJE Op 30-08-2020 om 14:53 schreef John Bohnovic: I can filter all of the Elecraft groups so that all of the messages from the different groups appear in one folder.
