[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Report
Good Evening, Conditions were so so on twenty meters, better on forty. QSB was mild all around with some storm noise. Winter is here. Gloom season in the Pacific Northwest, a sodden California, with reports of snow in the Upper Midwest. Even Georgia reported a frosty 55 F. Propagation on forty meters changed during the net, but was still good at the end. I will keep this net time until sunset forces a change. On 14050.5 kHz at 2300z: NO8V - John - MI W0CZ - Ken - ND K0DTJ - Brian - CA K4JPN - Steve - GA On 7047.5 kHz at 0016 to 0048z: K6PJV - Dale - CA W0CZ - Ken - ND KG7V - Marv - WA W9BZ - Lowell - IN K0DTJ - Brian - CA W8OV - Dave - TX KC0EMO - Kevin - IA Until next week 73, Kevin.

Re: [Elecraft] 80M Elecraft SSB net
Well, we had one check in this evening, besides myself. Steve, WM6P, said that he could barely copy me, so perhaps the propagation was off, and of course, we tried changing the UTC time which may have confused some. I have a standing conflict at 8pm local time on a local 2 meter repeater ARPSC net, so I'd prefer to keep this net at 9PM ET, summer time or not. I guess we'll see. Opinions, options? Here is the checking roster for this evening: WM6P Steve K3s KPA1500 N8SBE Dave K3s KPA500 Net control 73, -- Dave, N8SBE Quoting Dave New : Fellow Elecrafters, After the recent time change, we found that when attempting to meet at 0100 UTC, which now comes out to 8pm EST, there were several other nets running on and around our chosen net frequency of 3775 kHz. I listened until after 9pm EST, which was our normal time during daylight time, and the frequency was clear, as we have experienced this past summer. So, let's all try meeting this evening (Sunday local) at 0200 UTC, which will come out to 9pm EST/6pm PST.

[Elecraft] 80M Elecraft SSB net time change!!
Fellow Elecrafters, After the recent time change, we found that when attempting to meet at 0100 UTC, which now comes out to 8pm EST, there were several other nets running on and around our chosen net frequency of 3775 kHz. I listened until after 9pm EST, which was our normal time during daylight time, and the frequency was clear, as we have experienced this past summer. So, let's all try meeting this evening (Sunday local) at 0200 UTC, which will come out to 9pm EST/6pm PST. See you on 3775 kHz, USB! 73, -- Dave, N8SBE __ 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] K3s not transmitting AFSK
It's all working now, and I can't explain why. Rich VE3KI sent me a suggestion off-list to try the Windows 10 Sound Control Panel. The ONLY thing I did there was select the USB CODEC, check that the playback level was not 0, and click the Test Device button. That produced a few tones, and the K3 produced 100W into a dummy load in the DATA mode, just as it should. I launched N1MM with the Digital window open, and pressing F4 sent my call, and the K3 again produced RF. So I switched back to the Carolina Windom antenna and worked LA1TV on 15M with the KPA500 pumping out 300W. Bottom line: The K3 was not producing RF in DATA mode when I started this morning, then produced RF after I tested the USB CODEC in Sound Control Panel. I have no clue why. Thanks again to everyone who offered advice. --- 73, Mike N4CF Louisa County, VA USA Elecraft K3s / P3 / KPA500 / KAT500 Carolina Windom up 45' http://n4cf.mdodd.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 arch...@mail-archive.com
