[Elecraft] N1MM and K3
Hi all, I have been able to recover my stuck K3 at MCU LD with an old Serial to USB cable.I want to use it with my N1MM but find the transmmiting is not clean and sure it is due to the quality of that cable. Which one would you recommend to buy so my TXing will be clear and clean.? I know Elecraft has one, could someone send me the link so I can order the right one.? Thnak you guys. 73, JosepEA6BFMyWebsiteBUG #256 - CWOps #3072 - FOC #2182 (ex 1724) __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] N1MM and K3 always on transmit problem
Yes. You have PTT or KEY(CW) configured wrong. maybe try to start N1MM without the K3 on. Find these settings and verify the configuration. Also check your cabling. Might try unplugging all cables and re-connecting one by one.

Two ways to fix this (pick one). * In N1MM Logger, Config ->Configure Ports -> Hardware , click the "Set" button next to the K3's COM port and change DTR and RTS to "Always Off". * On the K3, set CONFIG:ptt-key to "off-off" Alternatively, you can actually use the RTS and DTR lines on the COM port for PTT and CW keying, if you want, by configuring them to match. ~Iain / N6ML __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] N1MM and K3 always on transmit problem
I switched computers and now, just getting N1MM on screen causes the K3 to transmit. The K3 works as usual with N1MM off and vice versa. Phone or CW, VOX on or off, no matter. When N1MM and the K3 are on together, the K3 is in transmit. Any help? 73, Dave __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

Pick your choice, write it down, then go to N1MM and in the Configure menu item, choose the top one [Ports]. Select the COM port you're using, check CW, and put the DTR/RTS settings in the appropriate fields. Works like a champ. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2009 Cal QSO Party 3-4 Oct 2009 - www.cqp.org __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

Hi Rick, Assuming already have the serial port for "rig control" and want to key through the same port... On the K3, set "CONFIG:PTT-KEY" to "rts-dtr" In N1MM Configurer, Hardware tab, click "Set" for the appropriate serial port, and set "DTR" to "CW" and "RTS" to "PTT". Back at the Hardware tab, check the "CW" box for the port you just configured. That should do it... ~Iain / N6ML __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

RE: [Elecraft] N1MM and K3 interface ?
Hi Ed, Yes I know. I've had solutions like that before I got myself a Winkey because of the stuttery CW from N1MM. I've keyed and PTT'ed my FT1K through parallel and serial ports, depending on computer available hi. But with slower computers in a network and a couple of thousands qso's during the contest the bad CW of N1MM became annoying. The winkey solution works great, also with old computers. Used it today on the WAG contest. 73 Arie PA3A -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: Ed K1EP [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Verzonden: zondag 19 oktober 2008 20:49 Aan: Arie Kleingeld PA3A; elecraft@mailman.qth.net Onderwerp: RE: [Elecraft] N1MM and K3 interface ?
