[Elecraft] PSK31 AND PSK63
I really like the ability of K3 and KX3 (I have both) to code and decode RTTY and PSK31. It is very helpful to work those expeditions without need to change logging software. It was also very helpful when operating from DX locations and being asked for a quick digi QSO. Now here is the question. With proliferation of PSK63 can we hope for an upgrade where PSK63 will be added to these two rigs? 73, Igor UA9CDC __ 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

You are all "sick" if you think that 5 watts from a K3 is some how magically greater than 5 watts from some other brand like Yaesu 5000mp or Kenwood TS590. The brand probably is the least likely variable as to whether you are heard or not. Most modern transmitters are equally as bad as the next.

Re: [Elecraft] PSK31 AND PSK63
I beg to differ for one simple reason; many of the K-I-Y transmitters send out a variety of noises, excessive width and IMD, that is not from users overdriving but is the manufacturers simply "cheaping out" to save money. Elecraft does it right; focus on quality, always. (Go big or go home.) I'd rather focus the RF energy cleanly into the desired spectrum rather than all over the spectrum. No magic involved, it's spectral purity. 73, Rick wa6nhc Tiny iPhone 5 keypad, typos are inevitable > On Feb 10, 2014, at 10:47 AM, XE3/K5ENS wrote: > > You are all "sick" if you think that 5 watts from a K3 is some how magically > greater > than 5 watts from some other brand like Yaesu 5000mp or Kenwood TS590.

Re: [Elecraft] PSK31 AND PSK63
With only about 8000 K3's and what 3 or 4+ million other radios. I don't think the Ham world cares much about that. And those 8000 aren't making much difference on the air. But drink another glass of Kool-Aid and you might even think because the K3 uses less power it's going to solve global warming. Besides isn't that the whole point in having that mega station so every one can hear you.

Re: [Elecraft] PSK31 AND PSK63
I do not know how and why this thread turned into someting different but the original question was- is Elecraft going to do FW upgrade to add PSK63 to the mix of modes KX3 and K3 already have? PSK63 is getting very popular and I would be happy to have it coded and decoded by KX3 (and K3). 73, Igor UA9CDC __ 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] PSK31 AND PSK63
Yes, it's on the wish-list for both the K3 and KX3. 73, Wayne N6KR On Feb 11, 2014, at 7:45 PM, "Igor Sokolov" wrote: > I do not know how and why this thread turned into someting different but the > original question was- is Elecraft going to do FW upgrade to add PSK63 to the > mix of modes KX3 and K3 already have?
