[Elecraft] K3EXREF with HP Z3816A GPS receiver

2012-01-05 Thread Bill Reid
The text of my last post apparently didn't make it to the reflector, so I'm 
trying again.

If anyone on the list  is interested in purchasing my HP Z3816A GPS receiver 
for use with K3EXREF and/or as a lab standard, I have all the details posted on 
my website at:

www dot wa4kbd dot net/HP3816A dot html

I'm replacing this unit with a Trimble Thunderbolt.  The HP works just fine and 
outputs a beautiful sine wave, but it also has a 19.6608 output, the 7th 
harmonic of which lands right on top of NOAA 15's 137.62 MHz signal...and I do 
enjoy copying polar weathersat photos.

Take a look, and  if interested, drop me  an email at:

billreid77 at gmail dot  com

Thanks,
Bill Reid, WA4KBD

[Elecraft] Battery Technologies (John Huggins)

2007-09-04 Thread Bill Reid
John...Virgil Stamps, K5OOR, is developing a variant of his famous HFPacker 
Amp.  It will be powered internally by one of the new DeWalt 36V Lithium Ion 
Nanophosphate packs.  In fact, he's already tested it and posted some pretty 
impressive results on the hfprojects reflector.  Virgil markets his products 
via hfprojects.com.  The usual disclaimers prevail. I'm just a satisfied 
HFPacker Amp builder looking forward to this new technology.

Bill, WA4KBD

Is there a ham web site somewhere that is collecting information on
these latest batteries for use in the ham way?  If not, perhaps I will
add that thread to mine.

John

[Elecraft] Unstable AGC?

2006-11-04 Thread Bill Reid
The variable power indications you note when initially tuning up on PSK31 are 
normal.  A meter indicating average power will will show lowest indicated power 
during idle.  When transmitting text, indicated power will rise significantly.  
When transmitting a pure tone (near end of transmission, for example) the 
indicated power output will be maximum. As to why you're seeing output dropping 
to less than one watt unpredictably, that is another issue. Check the integrity 
of your audio connections to/from the K2 and interface.  If you QSY by clicking 
all over the audio spectrum visible on the waterfall, realize that certain high 
or low frequencies may take you outside the workable passband of the filters in 
the K2 - in which case your output will fall off dramatically.  If the 
condition does not occur with a dummy load or on other bands, consider 'RF in 
the shack' issues.  For the QRP K2 operating digital modes, I would recommend 
postioning the power control to 10 watts requested. Set the actual RF output to 
5 watts or less using single tone mic audio at filter center.  This will 
usually result in best IMD.

Bill, WA4KBD

After adjusting the transmitter for either SSTV or PSK31, with any of the 
standard programs, the output stubbornly falls off to less than a watt, 
unpredictably.   When I first adjust the output for PSK31, for instance, the 
radio 
idles at 3 watts and jumps to well over five watts when there is signal--and 
can 
even jump to nearly 7 watts when the program goes into the steady tone before 
it changes over to transmit.

[Elecraft] K2 U1 part number

The K2 manual lists SA602 for U1 on the control board and the part number in my 
kit is SA612.  Is this IC OK to install?
