Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Programming Passband and Passband offset ?

2019-04-28 Thread Brian Waterworth 
Thank you for the additional details.  The commands you wrote about in this
thread should give you what you want.  Have you had a chance to try them
out yet to confirm?  I haven't tried myself, just read the programmer's ref
guide (E19) and drew it out on a piece of paper so I could see the
bandwidths and how they shift.  I always struggle with which way to shift.
Even wsjtx split mode gets me second guessing the direction of the shift.
Luckily the app knows what to do :-).

Is your motivation for reducing the noise above 2.5Khz due to unwanted AGC
action from these strong signals?  We can take this part of the
conversation off-list if you'd like.

regards,
Brian

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Programming Passband and Passband offset ?

2019-04-28 Thread John Newgas 
Bottom end of the audio passband at 500 because all heartbeats etc. should 
normally be in 500-1000Hz range.  As to bandwidth, I am in a very noisy City 
environment in London.  My antenna is a 12m  end fed wire tied to the top of a 
wooden fence - and half of that length is shielded as it is between two houses.

A narrow bandwidth simply keeps the noise levels down, but will still capture 
virtually all the JS8Call traffic.  80m is unusable unless I can narrow the 
passband right down.

Hi John,

Would you elaborate as to why you want to have 500-2500hz as your audio
passband width?  I have my KX3 BW = 4.00 and run split mode with JS8Call
and WSJT-X.  That keeps my signal in the sweet spot and gives me a view to
other signals up past 2500Hz in case I want to try to work them.

regards,
Brian

[Elecraft] KX3 Programming Passband and Passband offset ?

2019-04-28 Thread John Newgas 
My KX3 is often operated remotely via a Raspberry Pi and VNC - mainly for 
digital working with JS8Call and WSJT-X. 
I’ve set up a set of programmed instructions that I run before each session to 
make sure that everything is set up correctly such as Data Mode A, Power 
Output, Microphone and Audio Settings.

I can see how to set the Bandwidth (Passband Tuning ) using the BW Command but  
I want to have a defined bandwidth of 500 to 2500 Hz,   Is the right way to use 
 BW 20 ; IS 1500 ;?  Or is there a better way to adjust the PassBand offset 
?
