[Elecraft] Intermittent Audio on K3
Some time ago I started losing audio while using my K3 I use Line in audio The symptom goes as follows: talking along and next thing you know there is no RF, further research shows that the radio is still in transmit but there is no audio. Put an adapter and scope on the audio input Now I have absolutely assessed that there is audio going in to the radio when this condition occurs. Initially all that was needed to get going again was to un key and re key the transmitter. But within the last few weeks it now needs a power cycle of the radio to regain audio. This occurs about 30-90 seconds into a transmission. My next step will be to take the radio apart and start re seating all connections. Another clue gained this morning on 75 meters was that when my audio quits, the other station can still hear me very very faintly. Lending credence to the audio theory. I have never used the front panel mic on this radio, but I do have an MH2 from K2 days that I might re purpose to plug into the front and see what the results may be. While I prepare for the next step in troubleshooting, has anyone else ever seen this anomaly ? 73, Phil K3TUF __ 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] K3 / P3 firmware
Good for you on the concert. I'm out of options, just won't find the K3 P3 totally out of the line up. K3 off for minutes. Utility just doesn't find the K3. Serial cord is plugged in. Phil K3TUF On 10/16/2010 8:53 PM, Dick Dievendorff wrote: To stop the K3 Utility, click the red X at the top right, or on the File menu select Exit, or click somewhere in the K3 Utility window and then press Alt-F4 on the keyboard. Just like any other Windows program. After stopping the K3 Utility, turn the K3 off (remove its power plug), wait 30 seconds, then plug the K3 in again, press the power button, then start the K3 Utility program again. It should find the K3. Then load firmware with the K3 Utility. Don't reconnect P3 power until after you've successfully loaded K3 firmware.

[Elecraft] Using Transverters
I use the K3 as an IF for transverters. This has worked well for some time now. I had originally used the 10 watt model, but recently upgraded by adding the 100 watt amplifier. Now the issue begins. 9 transverter slots are not enough for the bands I have; 50-24192MHz, which is 11 bands with two more coming some day. When I did not have the amplifier, there seemed to be no issue, I programmed the logging software to use an offset and the K3 ended up on 28MHz as it usually does, but without the actual frequency display. btw, thanks for the recent firmware mod to display the full frequency momentarily: (1296, etc) Now, with the amplifier, when I select one of the bands the radio seems to automatically assume that I am going to transmit full power on 10 meters. How can I instruct the radio to use the XVTR ports when not using trn1-9? Also, I could use more trn's. thanks Phil K3(352)TUF __ 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

Given the following setup: K3 using transverters, with 50MHz transverter set for xv1. When I enter a 50MHz frequency via the com port the built in 50MHz receiver is selected. I then have to band up once to get to the xv1, then I can successfully band up to 144 etc. If I enter a 144 frequency, it immediately goes to xv2.
