Re: [Elecraft] No power out and no receive
If there is no receive capability at all on the radio it could be quite a serious fault - either with the radio or the feeder or aerial. I'd suggest that under these circumstances trying to transmit is a daft idea. Rigs these days are pretty well protected, but not completely foolproof.

Re: [Elecraft] No power out and no receive
Ok, got it working. I have two KSNY3 boards on main and SUB receivers. The led was on for the SUB but the LED on the main was off. I switched the boards and it started working. Must have been a loose connection on one of the cables??? -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-No-power-out-and-no-receive-tp7608524p7608558.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ 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] No power out and no receive
Anything that disables the synthesizer will produce those symptoms. Check the TMP cables that connect the KREF3 to the KSYN3 and to the K3 RF board to make sure they are all properly seated. If your K3 has the newer KSYN3A synthesizer board (mounted on the front panel shield with the KREF3) you should see a green LED glowing brightly when you look down from the top (it's on the back of the board near the top edge). If it's blinking the synthesizer is NOT locked and will produce the symptoms you are experiencing. Normally it will be glowing steadily. 73, Ron AC7AC __ 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] No power out and no receive
One correction to Ron's posting: The Sub Rx's KSYN3a (if you have the sub-receiver installed) may have a blinking green status light until the sub is actually turned on for the first time from the K3 front panel. 73, Eric /elecraft.com/ On 9/30/2015 8:03 AM, Ron D'Eau Claire wrote: Anything that disables the synthesizer will produce those symptoms.

Re: [Elecraft] No power out and no receive
Which Elecraft transceiver? Kit or factory built? Was it working before or has it never worked properly? 73, Don W3FPR On 9/29/2015 11:29 PM, way235 wrote: I have noise on all bands but don't hear any signals at all.

Re: [Elecraft] No power out and no receive
What is the serial number of your transceiver and do you have a callsign? Also, what revision of the manual do you have? With that information there are lots of people on here able to help you. 73 de David G4DMP On 30 Sep 2015 04:29, way235wrote: > > I have noise on all bands but don't hear any signals at all. > I have a TX light when keyed and can see the meter move when I speak into > the mic but I have no power output. __ 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
