The AD9834 DDS chip in the KX1 is clocked at its maximum rate of 50 MHz.
The highest relatively clean frequency that can be generated from a DDS is
about one-third of its clock rate (about 16 MHz). Thus, the KX1 design
can NOT be adapted to cover ham bands above 20 meters.
Geoff,
I believe that might be possible if the package size and pinout are the same as
the AD9834, but the firmware would have to change too. If it were not for the
firmware problem, adventuresome souls would be able to experiment a bit with it.

Hello all,
Most of you didn't work NU3E or WA3WSJ during the PBMME and here's the
reason.
John, NU3E, and myself hiked the snow-covered trail 5.5 miles to Eagle's
Nest Shelter on the Appalachian Trail on Saturday morning. As we
arrived, the temperature was a balmy 20 degrees. We set up camp
and
Sorry about my previous reply, I don't know what happened there.
Anyway, I checked in with my new KX1, S/N 1644, running 3W from here in PA.
Lots of QRN and QSB so difficult copy. I also listened on 40m but didn't hear
much there. I heard Kevin once but not strong enough that I would have even
Kevin,
I also like the hail sign procedure. Tom heard mine while you were calling for
QNI, even tho my signal didn't reach you - next time you called he quickly
tapped out HYD AS and I tapped R, and knew to wait. Sure enuf he called me back
for the QSP.
Now the dumb question: do I respond to N
Hi guysI just finished building and installing the KDSP2 in my K2
over the weekend and am trying to learn how to use it. One question on
the Denoisermine sounds more like a lowpass filter than a
denoiser...it does reduce the noise a little but seems to mostly just
muffle itmaybe my
Don,
I think that for use in a kit it would probably have to be supplied as part
of a factory assembled 'module' if the KX1's firmware could be changed. It
is packaged in a Thin Plastic Quad (SV-48) with 48 legs / leads which
require careful soldering and the chip needs some form of heat sink.

Hi,
In a (hopefully short) while, i'll be active as HF/QRP/Pedestrian Mobile
from the top of some hills in the Italian Appennins. Together with my good
friend IK4ISQ Carlo we are usually hicking along mountain trails every
Sunday morning. Since i'm now building an Elecraft KX1 (see

Hi!
I'm getting ready to install my KSB2 in #5757. I'm pretty sure that the
Heil Proset will work with the standard Icom jumpers, but I'm not sure
what, if any, resistor I'll need. Anyone have experience with this
combination that can give me some hints?
Thanks a lot!!!
Jim, WD9HBC

Jim,
All Heil Prosets are not created equal, you must be specific about the type,
but I will assume your subject line indicating the ProSet-iC is the one you
have purchased. If that is so, and you purchased the Icom adapter from
Heil, then you simply wire your K2 mic configuration header for the
Don,
You are an absolute fountain of information! Yes, I have the Icom adapter
from Heil and the set works perfectly on my 746.
I suppose another way to approach this is to get the Kenwood adapter from
Heil, making the K2 mic configuration easier and maybe more standard. I'll
have to ponder
Now that it awfully cold outside it's time to think about antenna work. My
KT34's SWR is great on 10 and 20 but the 15 meter match is at or above 3 to
1. Can't locate my assy manual (put it together over 23 years ago been on
the tower that long). Anyone have a copy out there they could scan in and
14 matches
