Re: [Elecraft] 4-pound Field Day, anyone?

2013-04-26 Thread George Cortez Jr
I was thinking about a sla in a pelican case with the connectors routed through 
the case...

 Hi all,
 
 This year I'm going to break with tradition and *not* drag tons of gear to my 
 field-day site. I'm going minimal….4 pounds max of radio gear. This will 
 allow me to put more emphasis on food, drink, and enjoying time with my son 
 (now almost 9). If anyone else is up for FD4#, let me know. I'd like to 
 compare notes on equipment, especially antennas, battery packs, and logging.
 
 4 pounds (or so) is not an arbitrary number. This allows for:
 
 - a KX3 with internal ATU and attached paddle
 - mic and headphones
 - external Li battery, plus 8 internal AA batteries in the rig as a backup
 - two 50' (roughly) lengths of antenna wire, adapters, and a couple of 1-oz 
 weights to get one wire into a tree
 - paper log and dupe sheets (maybe…more on this below)
 - soft carrying case for all of the above (in my case, a Think Tank Strobe 
 Stuff bag)
 
 I still expect to be reasonably competitive in the 1B-battery category even 
 with this lightweight station. I hope to operate on 80-6 meters in CW, SSB, 
 and digital modes (RTTY using the CW paddle and the KX3's text decode 
 function).
 
 There are two items I'm still working on:
 
 1. External battery
 
 I need something that will fit into the bottom of the Strobe Stuff bag. It 
 should supply at least 11 V, and I'd prefer 4 to 5 AH, though I could get by 
 with 3 AH and switch to the internal AAs later if necessary. Has any 
 consensus formed about specific Li battery packs in this class? Ideal max 
 size would be 1x3x2.5 (HWD).
 
 2. Logging
 
 I actually like paper logging in the field. It's kind of a Zen thing, 
 checking dupe sheets manually (Griffin is old enough to help with this, too). 
 But are there any good FD apps for the iPhone? I need the iPhone anyway so it 
 doesn't count towards the station weight total. If there's an app that's easy 
 to use for this, I'd love to try it. Heck, I'd even pay for it.

 Hey Gil,
 
 For WL2K and all data modes, just use Line In and Out to your sound device.  
 You can key the KX3 via the serial port, using DTR or RTS via the USB-Serial 
 adapter.  Doing this requires a current-limiting resistor in series on the 
 control line (DTR in my case).  I'm using 3.3K for mine, and it keys PTT 
 just fine.
 
 RMS Express allows a transceiver choice of Elecraft Radios in the Radio 
 Setup.  I've got that choice selected, running in Digital mode (Digital 
 USB).   There are two serial ports shown, one for control and the other for 
 PTT.  I have two virtual ports (COM19, 20) running through LP Bridge, 
 connected to COM3.  COM20 is used to key the KX3, and COM19 is used to 
 control the radio (frequency, mainly).
 
 Elecraft sells a cable set specifically for this type of use (KX3-PCKT).  
 The quality is better than average and the cost is only $20.

 Wouldn't just the audio input/output work?
 Or, can the USB cable that comes with the KX3 for firmware updates be used?
 Any suggestion would be appreciated, thanks,

 prices ranging from $150 to well over a thousand dollars plus.  George
 didn't say which model he's using but the least expensive I've seen is the

 with a specific model number in the lower price range I'm going to wait
 before spending more on experiments that don't work out.

 Swap has been arranged. A few asked why I wanted to switch so here's 
 the simple answer. I operate SSB primarily in contests. In the CQWW 
 SSB I found the 1.8k was a little too narrow when running stations at 
 high rates (150/hr). In contests stations often call slightly off 
 frequency (+/- 100 Hz) and I found myself needing to widen the 
 passband to ~2.0k for best copy (which kicked in the stock 2.7k). In 
 fact I never used the 1.8k much in the entire contest.
 
 When working stations on a single frequency (such as a DX pileup or a 
 net) the 1.8k works fine when you have time to tune carefully. And 
 yes I do know how to adjust HI CUT (and Fc) for best readability at 
 narrow BWs. Hopefully the 2.1k will be a better solution for me in 
 the ARRL SSB DX Contest in March.

 Many transatlantic light plane flights used a trailing wire antenna

[Elecraft] kpa 100 problem

2007-03-09 Thread George Cortez Jr

Hi folks
I have a problem with the initial testing of the amp.
The initial tune up gives me a hi cur then a 0.1- 1.0 and I cant control 
the  watt reading.

I tune C1 and did get a 1.0 but I don't get  a 5.0w when commanded.
I went on and the amp seems to be oscillating  at abt 18 watts on the qrp pa
and 170 on the kpa100. R6 has been adjusted for .5ma idle current.
Any thoughts?

Re: [Elecraft] Another Battery Question

2005-07-16 Thread George Cortez Jr
Hi
So are you connecting the 14 volt supply to
The power connector or connecting in some other way (direct to the battery) 
Is there an easy way to boost the voltage on 
any of the astron power supplies?
I have several and can dedicate one to 
The k2

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Another Battery Question

Tom,

If you can adjust your power supply to 14.0 volts, it should work a little 
better.  I bought my K2 battery with the K2 in 1999 (S/N 462), and it still 
is as good as new.  I also bought a Power Sonic 0.5 amp automatic charger, 
and it floats the battery all the time.  It charges the battery at a 
constant current until 14.4 volts is reached, then maintains a constant 
voltage until the battery is charged as sensed by the current decreasing to 
a small value, then floats the battery at about 13.8 volts.  My perception 
is that if the battery is not  topped off at 14.4 volts it never is fully 
charged, but it may reach full charge if floated at 13.8 volts 
constantly.  It just takes longer to reach full charge.

Hi all,

   I have a basic K2 (s/n 1103) without the 100 amp.  I also have the 
 Elecraft internal battery (KBT2), which I use in the field. At home the 
 K2 is connected to a 13 volt power supply which, of course, charges the 
 battery while I'm operating.

   Unfortunately life will be getting in the way of operating over the 
 next several months and I was wondering if I should be concerned about 
 causing any permanent damage to the K2 battery while it is not getting 
 charged. I'd appreciate any thoughts on this.


   I will be around and can turn on the PS to charge the battery from time 
 to time (how long and how often?), necessary.

Thanks
