[Elecraft] Run For The Bacon - this Sunday!

2024-03-15 Thread Larry Makoski
Come spend a couple hours of good ol' fashioned CW Sprinting with the
Flying Pigs QRP Club International. The monhtly Run For The Bacon is this
Sunday evening, March 17th from 23:00 to 01:00 UTC - 7:00 - 9:00 PM EDT,
6:00 to 8:00 PM CDT, 5:00 to 7:00 MDT, 4:00 to 6:00 PM PDT.

The exchange is easy! Just send your RST, your State/Province/Country along
with your Flying Pig Membership # - if your're not a fellow Piggie (yet)
just send your output power.

Scoring works like this:

QSO Points: Member = 3 points, DX members = 5 points, non member = 1 point

S/P/C Multipliers: State/Province/Country total for all bands. The same SPC
may be worked on multiple bands for SPC credit.

Fifty (50) members worked Multiplier: Work 50 or more piggies = X 2
multiplier The same piggie may be worked on multiple bands for credit
toward this multiplier.

Power: QRP only - 5 Watts or less of RF from your transmiiter's output.

Suggested Frequencies CW: 1810.7-1812, 3560.7-3562, 7030.7-7044,
14060.7-14062, 21060.7-21062, 27185, 28060.7-28062

Final Score: (Total QSO points) * (total SPC) * 2 (if 50 or more members
worked) - but if that's all too complicated - just enter your score at
http://qrpcontest.com/pigrun/autolog.php and the Autologger will figure it
out for you.

Re: [Elecraft] Mysterious K3 Symptoms - RFI?

2024-03-15 Thread Hisashi T Fujinaka

I recommend running fiber, but my old day job was in wired networking at
a big chip manufacturer. I think fiber parts are getting a lot cheaper
lately.

I recommend replacing Ethernet cables with wifi when possible, both for
noise and rfi problems, as well as reducing the chance of lightning damage.

 Although I don't have an amp, and ran my K3 barefoot, and run my K4D
barefoot as well, I do have a 100 foot CAT5E cable running into the shack
from the other end of the house, through the attic (there being no basement
here in south Florida!). Initially, I was seeing a fair amount of noise
from it, and was able to quench it by winding a couple of turns around a
small clamp-on choke.
That doesn't seem to affect the network performance, so I can reliably run
it at 400MBit/second, and it seems to clean up whatever other noise it's
picking up from nearby homes (most are on small lots of about 1/5 acre) and
the condominium complex next door. I still have some strange noise from
other sources coming in from the antenna, and the HVAC's air handler is
very noisy, particularly on 30m through 15m, but I know it's not the
twisted-pair Ethernet line. My CAT5E cable plugs into a small AC-powered
router, and feeds my Mac, the K4D, as well as a laptop occasionally.

One culprit I can think of is a 100-foot Ethernet cable between my
station and my FIOS router.  I have bought a shielded replacement but
have not yet installed it.  After reading some of the recent commentary
about so-called "shielded" cables, I'm wondering if this is worth doing.

Any suggestions, either K-3-specific or more general, would be much
appreciated.
