Re: [Elecraft] K3/0 Remote setup and Brainboxes
Thanks for your information, John. This morning I went on the Brainboxes web site and took advantage of their support page. All is set up and fine now. 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] K3/0 Remote setup and Brainboxes
As part of my remote setup, I purchased a Brainboxes ES-257 2 Port RS232 ethernet to serial adapter to control a couple of serial port accessories. I can control the ES-257 and the attached equipment using their Boost.LAN Manager software over my LAN but cannot get the device configured to accept control using my external IP. Any suggestions or direction would be much appreciated. 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] K3/0 local site software
Prior to purchasing a K3/0 with the remote rig boxes, I had been using HRD. My accessory equipment (Alpha 87A, 2 rotor controllers, power meter, etc.) were handled by using the HRD Serial Port Client in conjunction with the 3rd party N8VB vCOM Virtual Serial Port Driver software. Unfortunately, the N8VB software is not compatible with Windows 8. I talked to Brandon at Elecraft (I can't say enough about Brandon and Elecraft support - it's just fantastic!) and he suggested that I take a look at the Eltima's Serial to Ethernet Connector software. This software seems to work fine and the setup isn't too difficult. For about $100.00 you get a license for 2 computers. When I'm running remote for an extended period of time, I have a desktop and a laptop with me. Eltima lets you uninstall and reinstall/register without limit but after 2 cycles you must contact customer support to switch machines. Can anyone suggest a Windows 8, 64 bit, compatible software similar to Eltima's Serial to Ethernet Connector without this limitation (maybe even freeware)? 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] K3/0 tx audio problem
Hi Doug, Just wanted to let you know that I'm up and running. I called Elecraft on Monday and Brandon helped me. What a pleasure to work with the Elecraft staff. Main problem was that I need to remove JMP1 (default is bias on) in the control RRC-1258. I did not realize that some mics that don't need bias will not work if bias is applied. I also had an open RF choke in the PTT IN line on my K3/100 which was causing PTT issues. Thanks for responding - much appreciated. 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] K3/0 tx audio problem
Just received my K3/0 and in the process of setting it up. RX, dual RX and CW are working great. I can't get any audio on SSB. I have the remote (K3/100) MIC SEL set to rP.L and the local K3/0 MIC SET set to fP.L . The mic plugged into the front connector of the K3/0. PTT is working but no ALC defection. Any suggestions? 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Elecraft] RS-232 over WiFi
I purchased a refurbished NETGEAR WNCE2001-100NAR from Newegg.com. Works great. 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] P3 -P3SVGA Split Op Problem
This is probably a cockpit problem. All is just fine I set up for split operation (TX on VFO B and set the span for a desired width) and press and hold center and adjust the center so that the VFO A cursor is on the far left on both displays. If I happen to bump or make a fine adjustment to VFO A, the VFO A cursor remains to the left on the P3 but the VFO A cursor on the P3SVGA jumps to the center of the external monitor (center frequency is displayed correctly on the monitor). Why don't the displays track? 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] K3 default RTTY baud rate
What am I doing wrong? I use FSK D and it seems like the default baud rate is 75 bps when I check the setting in MD DATA. How can I set the K3 up so 45 bps is the default? 73, Paul K9NU __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
