One piece of info is missing. Are you setting the line in/out levels at the
K3 or just at the computer? You need to do it at both places.
In DATA A mode: select the line in as the 'microphone input' and the mic

Most new monitors have at least an analog VGA input and at least one
DVI/Displayport inputs and can be switched between the input sources

I use the 400Hz 8 pole for general QSOs and the 250 for contesting. I am

In the 10m contest, I used the 1 kHz filter 90% of the time with the DSP set

That is exactly how the tuning relay works. It interrupts the ptt line
so the amp cannot key while the SteppIR is moving. N8LP also makes a
box for those that do not have the new controller that will do the same
thing.

I consider the ability to have a resizable, position independent display on
a computer connected monitor as significant as a dedicated display monitor.
Does the opportunity exist to have a windowed display of the P3 output?
Perhaps I'm overlooking something obvious.

Jim,
The KTCXO3-1 has always been more stable than its spec'ed 0.5ppm
stability, so there is no need to calibrate it for temperature vs.
frequency using software.
Because of that fact, the fields for entering the calibration data have
been removed from the K3 Utility and also the section
Seems to me you would need either (1) a monitor device with two inputs and
built in PIP capability, another video processor in the P3 to also take your PC
video and provide PIP on the P3 output, or software and something other than a
SVGA video output form the P3 to let your PC do the PIP on

I just checked 1.4.10.11 and do not see TCXO under Calibration.
In 1.4.1.8, the latest version for Windows, the TCXO button is listed under
Calibration but grayed out.
The P3 SVGA option uses an analog VGA connector. So you should be able
to connect the PC to the DVI or whatever connector and the P3 to the
VGA.

Hi, Rich.
Based on your description of the situation, it does sound like the battery
is NG. Probably a shorted cell.
As for the current drain, my fully loaded QRP K2 with DSP draws 320-360
mA, according to the internal display. Honestly, I have not actually
measured it with an external ammeter.
Dave:
My next experiment will be to have an N1MM logging program
macro available to send RF Gain command RG090 if a loud
pileup shows up. RF Gain will be returned to 200 by
appending
the RG200 command to the thank you message. This should
be the ultimate in riding the RF gain control.
Interestingly enough, I just received KPA500 #594 and there is an errata
sheet with 1/4 4-40 screws attached.

The available resolutions are 1024x768, 1280x1024 and 1920x1080.
There's room in memory so we could probably support other resolutions if
