[Elecraft] Power for KAT500

2017-08-26 Thread Sid Frissell
Thanks to all who sent email or  posted help here.  I ended up using the 
station power supply. Late this afternoon I finished all the connections and 
hit the on button.it worked as it is supposed to just like all my other 
Elecraft gear has.  My first amplifier in my 60 years of ham radio!  Great fun.

[Elecraft] Power source for KAT500

2017-08-23 Thread Sid Frissell
Just got my new KAT/KPA500 on the August Special.  I have both units all wired, 
tested and ready to go except for the 12 to 15 VDC power connection for the 
KAT500.  What are you experienced KAT/KPA owners using for this power source?  
What amperage is required?  Advice would be appreciated, please.

Re: [Elecraft] K3s audio problem

2016-08-11 Thread Sid Frissell
It works!  When I set up for the mic I apparently got those settings tangled up 
with Data Mode too!  Not sure how I did that. Don, W3FPR started me in the 
right direction by noting that Mic-select was mode specific.  Then, more of you 
  guys asked.me why I wasn't using the internal sound card (I had been using it 
for the last two years or so) that made me realize that I had something wrong 
with Mic-select and/or Mic+Line.  In Data mode I set Mic-Select to Line In and 
Mic+Line to Off and all is now back in operation.  As usual, the many "Elmers" 
on this site came through! 
Thanks to all who replied on and off list.
Sid, NZ7M

Well, I guess I've wrung all the opinions out of you re. KXPD 2 vs KXPD3.  
Seems like the KXPD2 is preferred.

[Elecraft] 20 meters is dead all day

2016-07-22 Thread Sid Frissell
You "20 meters is dead all day" guys need to check out WSJT-X (JT-9 and JT-65). 
 
At least here in MT 14076 is busy every day all day!  You can find many US and 
VE stations plus a very good mix of DX. I have only been on this mode since 
late in 2014  (been a ham since 1950) and I have worked over 100 DX entities.  
{I started over when I took up digital.  New ones are still popping up.  Plenty 
of QSO's.  No rag-chewing of course !!!  Also, my DX spotter in DXLabd seems to 
keep rolling out spots all day--many on 20, both SSB and cw.  Try 14076.
I call it "Mouse-click Radio" as thats all you have to do. At least you will 
hear (see?) activity.

73, Sid.  NZ7M

[Elecraft] Setting ALC for JT-65/jt-9

2016-02-28 Thread Sid Frissell
Well, let me do a final summary of what I learned from many kind fellow hams 
here and via personal eMail.  There are two schools of thought on how you 
accomplish four solid bars and a fifth blinking (ALC meter).  

1.  Several people sent me fairly long, complex discussions of the problem with 
final recommendations to use the Mic Gain control to control old "blinky 5".  
Well meaning but not helpful as that was exactly what I was complaining about.  
 That control is irritatingly sensitive!, especially for us older gentlemen.

2. The alternative approach was very well-explained by Ian, N8IK (short form) 
and Dave, N5XL (long form).   After very usefuL steps re. Windows audio sliders 
etc, they both set radio audio with mic gain level in the Menu.  Then (trumpets 
and drum rolls here) the final adjustment of Blinky 5 was done with the Power 
Slider in WSIT-X.  Wow.  That slider seems much less sensitive and does the job 
nicely.  

I will wrap up this thread with a cheer and many thanks to you who shared your 
knowledge.   This group rocks!

[Elecraft] ALC adjustment on K3S

2016-02-27 Thread Sid Frissell
Howdy
Been using my K3s  (S/N 10462) for JT-65/JT-9 and am struggling with setting 
the ALC.  I am using the Mic Gain control for fine tuning---unbelievably fine.  
You really can't actually touch the knob,  you just breath on it or think hard 
about moving it!   It is the most sensitive control I have ever had to deal 
with in my 60 years as a ham!  Am I missing something?  Is there a better way 
to get old bar No. 5 jumping?  KE7K says that's what you do.  I can do it but 
hoping there's a easier way.  Any help?

[Elecraft] Clay Autry K3S order

That's almost exactly what I ordered some months ago (except I sprang for the

Otherwise, I am very happy with what I bought. For what I paid I have to be
