Re: [Elecraft] New K2 problem ?ATU

2014-12-03 Thread Byron N6NUL
I would suspect water in the feed line or a bad connector first. You'll know 
more  when you can inspect the antenna.

You could try overriding the tuning power (in the manual) and see if it can 
even tune at full power instead of the normal 20 watts. I suspect it would have 
an issue that the lower power doesn't reveal.

 Hi  
 This just started tonight.The ATU is acting squirreled
 I think it is the KAT100  
 no change in setup…K2/100 to KAT100 to G5RV
 FLdigi and Mac OS  (not yet upgraded to Yosemite)
 Signalink USB  
 
 no changes in connections
 
 so…I use the ATU on 80M   it goes to 1:1 after several relay clicks  as usual
 Then I xmit….Hi Current…red 5:1 SWR and variable
 I turn off xmit on fldigi…now rcvr is low output…I hit the TUNE button and it 
 re tunes the atu back to 1:1 and normal rcvr volume
 
 I’ll check on my antenna tomorrow when it is light  but 
 
 Does this sound like the ATU is going bad?
 
 serial number is 5312

Re: [Elecraft] [ELECRAFT] K3: Help! No output on 80m CW

2014-11-28 Thread Byron N6NUL
I don't have a K3, but I'll take a stab anyway ;)

Is test mode per- band? Or, have the per band power limits been set to 0?

 Hi Antenna is correct, VOX on, checked cw weight. However, perhaps
 it's my Antenna. When I tune with 10w through my kpa500 all is well.
 Output is at around 300w. Voice is fine at 500w. However when I try
 to send some cw through the terminal program, the KAT500 goes crazy,
 has a fault, the kpa500 shows all red in swr and then stops
 transmitting. At that point even if I turn off the amp and clear the
 kat500 there is no power out. It sounds different than when I
 transmit on 160. There no clicking no issues. Even at 500 w same
 antenna.
 
 Put KAT500 into tune, HOLD Tune on the K3, and let it tune at your tune 
 power [20W]. Then put KAT500 into MAN mode and see what happens. I run MAN 
 all the time, KAT500 doesn't try to tune.

Re: [Elecraft] [P3] Fry's sale on Logitech keyboard

The only time I remember seeing keyboards with function keys on the left was 
the summer I interned at Boeing in the 80's, but you can still get buckle 
spring keyboards (with USB interfaces now) from

 Fry's has a special discount on the Logitech K360 wireless keyboard that is

 That's a nice keyboard, but my fingers and brain demand one with the
 F-keys on the left side, the Ctrl and Alt keys straddling the left-side
 Shift key, and the keys make very tactile clicks - like God and IBM
 meant them to be.  I have two Northgate keyboards built like that which
 I have been pounding for over 20 years.  Sadly they aren't made any more.
