Re: [Elecraft] K3 600Hz shift when A/B pressed (cw/ssb)
Hi Don, Yes I was using POWERSDR/IF earlier today when I noticed the bug. Believe it or not I upgraded to v1.19.3.5 earlier today without making the connection. I tried the same A/B thing again (just now) with the K3 (with and without POWERSDR/IF v1.19.3.5 running) and it doesn't happen now. Looks like I was experiencing the POWERSDR/IF v1.19.3.4 bug. That would have driven me mad wondering why the odd behaviour vanished. Superb bit of sleuthing Don. Note to self: kill all related communication applications when K3 exhibits odd behaviour.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 600Hz shift when A/B pressed (cw/ssb)
Doug, Are you using POWERSDR/IF? If you are, is the version xxx.34? That version had a bug caused the very shift you are seeing. Furthermore it happened whether the A/B change was initiated by either the K3 buttons or the POWERSDR panel. Upgrade to version xxx.35 to fix it. 73, Don W3FPR GM0ELP wrote: > If I have different modes (cw/ssb) in A and B VFOs, when I press A/B the > frequency being passed to VFO A goes up 600Hz (cw) or down 600Hz (ssb) each > time A/B is pressed.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 600Hz shift when A/B pressed (cw/ssb)
The auto shift kicks in in a few places it shouldn't at the current moment. Not sure why yours is changing by a value other than your pitch setting. ~Brett On Sat, 2010-04-17 at 12:09 +0100, Douglas Maxwell wrote: > Hi Brett, > Thanks for the reply.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 600Hz shift when A/B pressed (cw/ssb)
Hi Brett, Thanks for the reply. My CW pitch setting is 700Hz not 600Hz so this still seems wrong? Also I am not switching between modes on a single VFO, I'm swapping VFOs (A/B). Why should auto shift kick in for this action?

Re: [Elecraft] K3 600Hz shift when A/B pressed (cw/ssb)
You have the auto shift feature turned on. This makes the radio QSY by your pitch setting when you go to and from CW mode. ~Brett (KC7OTG) On Sat, 2010-04-17 at 01:42 -0800, GM0ELP wrote: > If I have different modes (cw/ssb) in A and B VFOs, when I press A/B the > frequency being passed to VFO A goes up 600Hz (cw) or down 600Hz (ssb) each > time A/B is pressed.

[Elecraft] K3 600Hz shift when A/B pressed (cw/ssb)
If I have different modes (cw/ssb) in A and B VFOs, when I press A/B the frequency being passed to VFO A goes up 600Hz (cw) or down 600Hz (ssb) each time A/B is pressed. Anyone else see this? What am I doing wrong?
