[Elecraft] reflector

2010-01-12 Thread robby robertson
Does anyone know a good way to read the digests from this reflector.  I do
not want to receive 50 emails a day to get 2 or 3 that are of interest to
me. The K3 digest is getting ignored here because of all the repeat
information I have to wade through.

There must be a better way.

[Elecraft] My Proposed K3 Configuration so far...

2009-11-20 Thread robby robertson
Phil

 

The KUSB is just a USB to RS-232.  They nailed me for $40 for one because I
thought it was a special one for the K3. It didn't work. I later found one
for under $10 that works fine. Don't buy it.

 

Elecraft have some wonderful products and accessories.  The KUSB just isn't
one of them.

I am sorry I criticized Elecraft regarding their KUSB.

 

I apologize.

 

Once again, I am sorry.

 

Please stop the hate mail now.

4Z5TO,

 

Thank you.  Now I feel good.  I am going to order another KUSB and connect
them in parallel for double fun.

Actually my KUSB works now.  I still paid $30.00 too much for it.

 

I am afraid to mention what the REAL problem was.

 

Please hold your fire on the rocket attacks.  I am not going to mention it.

Re: [Elecraft] RFI

2009-11-10 Thread robby robertson
I thought my microKEYER was guilty of RFI but it turned out that the audio
patch cables for line in and line out had a less than 10% shield. I
temporarily solved the problem with ferrite but a more permenant solution
will be RG-58au.

Then I lost microphone audio and just got a buzz.  I removed the RJ-45
connector from the back of the MK and plugged it back in. Problem gone. Self
cleaning contacts are great but you have to activate them.

2009-11-10 Thread robby robertson
Thanks for the info Jim.  

 

I already have that document on my computer and it is impressive to say the
least and I really am going to read it someday however I don't see myself
launching into an exhaustive research project when I can make the problem go
away easily.

 

I have no idea what a pin 1 problem is but whatever it was, the problem is .
. . . .   gone.

[Elecraft] K3 bottom cover screw spinning in place

2009-11-03 Thread robby robertson
Hi Mark,

 

I had that problem too.  Just take the top cover off and you will see a
screw just ahead of the PA box in the center of the rig. Remove it and then
the bottom will come off.  Both of those screws go into a stand off.
Replace the top screw with the stand off on the bottomef and tighten it a
bit more firmly.  Then you can replace the bottom cover.  Tighten it a
little less.

[Elecraft] Speaker on/off

2009-10-30 Thread robby robertson
I saw a macro to turn the speaker off and on somewhere but now I can't find
it. I don't see a function in the programmers guide that looks like it would
work.  Can someone send me that macro please?

[Elecraft] K3 Beta Firmware

2009-10-18 Thread robby robertson
My K3 #3408 was shipped with v. 3.27.  I don't know if it is a release
version or beta.  I can't find it on the site anywhere.

 

When I tried to load v. 3.30 my rig locked up. They claim I have a bad KIO3
board and sent me another about a week ago so it's about half way here. It
took 14 days for my K3 to get here. Six days of that time it sat in Canadian
Customs then Canada Post had it for another six days. This makes the US
Postal Service look pretty good!
