[Elecraft] K3 CW speed request
Is it possible to have a speed step of .5 in between the present CW speed settings of whole numbers? I am particularly looking for a CW speed of 21.5 wpm just now. A linear speed setting instead of the step change would be even better :-) Charles - M0BIN ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request
Those dashes sound a little long. The formula normally used to calculate lengths of elements is dot length (msec) equals 1200 divided by wpm. Thus, at 22 wpm, the dot length should be 54.5 msec. Dashes are normally three times as long, i.e., 163.5 msec. 73, andy, ae6y - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2008 6:58 AM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request On Thu, 03 Jul 2008 13:53:14 +0100, David G4DMP/G3KEP wrote: In a recent message, charles [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote ...

Re: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request
Dahs are actually twice the length of dits, I think. Or technically, the dah period is twice the dit period (i.e., a dah sound plus its space is equal to two dit sounds and their spaces). I measured the dahs instead of dits because I don't have a keyer; just pluged my mono straight key plug into the paddle jack and it gives dahs. I measured the period by averaging over five dah periods with the K3 readout set at 22 wpm and 21 wpm, giving periods of 0.207s and 0.219s, as mentioned. I measured the sidetone at the headphone jack using audio waveform software. 73, Drew AF2Z On Thu, 03 Jul 2008 07:39:55 -0700, andy, ae6y wrote: Those dashes sound a little long.

Maybe I should be requesting that the character speed setting should be halved and indicated in .5 steps because the speed control knob actually controls the character speed. The actual overall wpm is set by the sender depending on the timing of the gap between each character and each word. I hope that I have now clarified just what I am requesting :-) The Logikeyer changes the character speed on a linear scale which gives the operator greater control and flexibility.

RE: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request
What's confusing is why anyone would need 0.5 wpm resolution. If 21.5 wpm is the target, why isn't 21 or 22 wpm good enough? I suspect there is a reason but I can't guess what it is. If you need true 0.5 wpm resolution and an accurate 21.5 rate, maybe it is time for an external keyer. - Keith N1AS - - K3 711 - -Original Message- Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request On Thursday 03 July 2008 13:17:59 Bob Serwy wrote: I am curious.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request
Drew, I don't think that is correct. Normal CW has a dash that is three times as long as a dot. If you have dashes as short as twice as long as dots, the code sounds very strange. The ratio, i.e., three to one, is purely of the length of the character. Normal spacing between dots and dashes is one dot length, independent of the dot to dash ratio. If the transmitted code sounds OK, and the dashes are truly as long as you say, then the speed control is mis-calibrated. I note that the K3 has a menu entry for what they call CW Weight, defined as the dot to space ratio (although often CW weight is used to mean the dot to dash ratio). Not sure if there is a way on the internal keyer to vary the dot to dash ratio. Most outboard keyers allow you to play with the dot to dash ratio, and some people like to vary it a bit from three to one. 73, Andy, ae6y. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2008 7:57 AM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request Dahs are actually twice the length of dits, I think.

Also, please remember to restrain posting when you see more than 10 posts on a subject in a day.

Thanks for the reply Vic. Nearly all my operating is on CW rag chew. The microphone is only plugged in for the Radio Club SSB net. I have ten year's experience of CW operation and I would say that I am still learning. I like to send at a speed that is close to the other guy's speed. I like to send clearly with correct spacing and without too many mistakes so that the other guy can copy well. At my present stage of learning CW I can comfortably send at 21 wpm on the K3 speed control. I am referring to a rag chew that can last up to 30/45 minutes. I do not know what overall speed I am sending at and it is not necessarily relavent to this discusion. There are days when I can send well at 22 wpm on the K3 speed control and meet the above requirements to ensure that I am sending clearly and in a way that the other guy can copy well. However, there are days when the K3 speed control of 22 wpm is too fast and days when the K3 speed control of 21 wpm is too slow. On those days I would like to be be able to set the K3 speed control to 21.5 wpm. There is nothing magic about this :-) perhaps one day I shall find the need for a K3 speed control of 22.5 wpm :-) Perhaps the reason why I have this problem with the K3 speed control is because until I started using the K3 internal keyer I have always used the Logikeyer from Bob Locher. I hope that I have described my situation adequately and that I have now clearly explained the reason for my request for a finer resolution on the K3 keyer speed control knob.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request
Are you serious Dave W7AQK - Original Message - From: charles [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: elecraft elecraft@mailman.qth.net Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2008 4:54 AM Subject: [Elecraft] K3 CW speed request Is it possible to have a speed step of .5 in between the present CW speed settings of whole numbers? I am particularly looking for a CW speed of 21.5 wpm just now. A linear speed setting instead of the step change would be even better :-) Charles - M0BIN ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
