Re: [Elecraft] K4 Firmware Updating
As someone who doesn’t have a wired Ethernet connection in the shack, I can assure anyone concerned about updating a K4 via wireless, that an ordinary WiFi extender with an RJ45 Ethernet port works fine. I use a Netgear AC1200 (EX6120) with a 5 metre Cat6 fully shielded patch cable. It works fine. The extender is 30 GBP from Amazon UK. 73 Dave G4AON K4D #286 -- Sent from my iPhone SE __ 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

Yes, a WiFi extender works for me as well.

[Elecraft] T1 not tuning
I had just read a post from someone who said their T1 had quit tuning. I pulled mine out of my qrp go-bag only to find mine has also stopped tuning. Now, with that being said. I have not changed the battery out for a new one as of yet. But wondering if the other person who had issues came to a resolve?

Re: [Elecraft] T1 not tuning
Not sure if you are referring to my post from a few weeks back. When I finally spent time diagnosing my problem, I can confirm it is doing everything as expected, except it continually flashes 4 yellow. Based on a very helpful email from Elecraft technical support, it is clear that something is keeping the on/off transistor energised. I haven’t yet had a chance to diagnose further (due to work commitments). For your case, I recommend trying with a new battery before deciding it isn’t working. Then make sure it isn’t in bypass mode before tuning. If this doesn’t work, post more details about that happens when you try to tune. Good luck!
