Re: [Elecraft] K3 Firmware V3.99
I have the same thing occurring here with 3.99. When working split, as soon as I transmit, sub RX reception quits. (just a slight noise in background on the sub rx, like a receiver that has no antenna connected). This was on CW. Both the sub and the main receiver was set to the same mode (CW). It occurs with QRQ on or off. This was on 20m. 500hz filters selected on both receivers. So far, it occurs every time. Turning off and on the sub receiver re enables reception on the sub rx. By the way, I really like the new QSK+ mode. It may be the best QSK I have heard on any rig. Thanks! 73, John KD8K > I'm unable to replicate this glitch with v3.99 on my K3.

Re: [Elecraft] K3: QRQ high-speed QSK
I am not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but another setting that may have an affect on this is switching between "New" QSK and "OLD" QSK by tapping 3 under the CW WGHT Menu Item. I think that the default is "New". I believe "Old" is supposed to provide better QSK performance while "New" reduces keying artifacts. 73, John Toby Pennington wrote: > A friend of mine and I experiminted to see if the K3 could hear a bk during a > transmission at high speeds > > He was using the K3 with a pre BETA version, and I was on a Icom 7700.

Re: [Elecraft] OT Local QRN what is it?
Here is a web site that might be of help to you in identifying this. It is the RF noise identification web site. http://www.arrl.org/tis/info/HTML/rfi-noise/appliances.html To me it sounds a lot like the "treadmill" noise clip. Hope this is of help. 73, John KD8K Bill Hammond wrote: > I have been chasing this noise in my urban neighborhood for several years > now.
