[Elecraft] K3 & Voice Keying From N1MM+
I’m hoping someone on the reflector can tell me what I’m missing. I want to use my K3 with N1MM+ to play voice keying and record on-the-fly. I have found and successfully gone through a few different articles about doing this, only from the aspect of N1MM+ and the computer are detailed, but not to the radio (understandably since radios can differ greatly). My K3 does not have the sound card module in it. It is not a K3S I am using two 1/8” stereo cables I had on-hand, to go between the radio and the computer sound card. I have a cable from the K3, rear Speaker or Phones jack (both work) to the computer sound card Mic jack. Recording from the radio to N1MM+ seems to work fine. The other cable comes from the computer sound card (regular) speaker jack to the K3. If I put this in the (rear) Line In jack and turn on Spkrs+Mic, I get nothing. No audio, nor keying the radio when having N1MM+ do playback. If I put this cable into the K3 rear Mic jack (changing the K3 to the rear mic), it does key the radio and I hear audio when having N1MM+ do playback. It sounds a bit distorted, but that could be a level adjustment from the computer. The problem with this, is in using the rear Mic jack for the computer audio, I then have no front mic to use for my headset to actually carry on other parts of the QSO. I know that it is possible (I’ve seen it) to feed the computer audio sent from N1MM+ to a K3 *and* use a headset as well. But I’m not able to get both to work. I have asked another ham, that successfully has this configured, how to do it, and he told me I only need 2 audio cables, to go between the computer sound card and the jacks on the rear of the K3. That’s all. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I’m trying to get prepared for Field Day and started wrestling with this a week ago.

[Elecraft] r5 and r4 on kpa3 board?
i sent a message to list a while back about my k3 not putting out any power over 12 watts.its still not...I'm on the LONG LONG queue for sending in(seems they need more repair techs) we took most of the boards out, reseated them etc.no change. i did notice one thing that appears weird and must have been done by elecraft repair on a previous trip for k3s board and other updates.. R4 and R5 on kpa3 board are unsoldered on one end and flipped aroundeffectively taking them out of circuit. does anyone know the purpose of this being done?

Re: [Elecraft] r5 and r4 on kpa3 board?
I had that happen to one of those resistors and the 40 meter coil in the BPF circuit was basically vaporized. They sent me out the parts to upgrade the resistors and a new toroid coil all for a very reasonable price. I replaced the parts and was back in business. They refer to that behavior of the surface mount resistors as "tombstoning" they over heat and one end comes loose first and the other end pulls it up in the air. Kind of cute.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 & Voice Keying From N1MM+
In this configuration, you may actually need to use the front panel mic connector. I have a similar setup to yours, except I have the K3DVR in my K3. I have my computer set up using the rear jacks, as you, for N1MM Logger+ and other digital mode software connections. But, I've always used my front mic connector with my headsets. Another option, have you tried the right size and type splitter on the rear mic jack? That might let you accomplish your goal, too. Hope this helps. 73 de, Ian, NV4C On Thu, Jun 16, 2022 at 12:25 PM Graydon Jensen wrote: > I’m hoping someone on the reflector can tell me what I’m missing. > > I want to use my K3 with N1MM+ to play voice keying and record on-the-fly. > > I have found and successfully gone through a few different articles about > doing this, only from the aspect of N1MM+ and the computer are detailed, > but not to the radio (understandably since radios can differ greatly).
