Thousands of people will agree with you, Dean, and congratulations in
putting your K1 on the air. Yes, Elecraft produce some fine kits - I
have built the K1, KX1 and K2 and assembled the K3 also. I intend to

You should let N1MM Logger do rig control. Assuming you have a serial
cable between COM1 and your K3's RS232 jack, set the "Radio command"
port in MMTTY to NONE and configure N1MM Logger to use COM1 to control
your K3. That way the frequencies will be tracked in the N1MM Logger
contest log.

Hi Jim,
I took a ring from a standard microphone plug and soldered a 1980 bronze
1 dutch cent coin on it, that fits perfectly on the ring. The current
"eurocent", which is 15 mm in diameter would fit also.
I did that for the same reason you describe...

I use my K3 with HRD software and have the PTT working with all the digital

There are four different drop down types in HRD and I have tried them all with

Todd,
Sounds like a dead short somewhere. Does the power supply lite up if you have
the cord connected to it but not to the rig? If so, it's after the cord unless
the power pole is shorting when you plug it into the rig.
If not, it's the cord.

What you suggest is something that can be done with software using
the P3 Command Set, but cannot be done with simple macros because
they are not capable of doing the calculations required.
It sounds like an interesting project.

There are plenty of posts with K3 in the title that remain in the main

I did not see a response to your question, but I believe the answer is NO.

I do not know what *cwky* might be, but the K3 will respond to a key
closure if VOX is selected. If VOX is not selected, one must close PTT
or tap the XMIT button to enable the transmit mode before beginning CW
transmission.

I now have the K3 responding with using PTT and not needing VOX selected.

Hi Again All,
I was just informed by private email that the Ten-Tec 418 amp will NOT do
QSK! That astounds me! I just assumed it did I guess. I'm no designer,
but I didn't think QSK was all that hard to incorporate--especially in an
amp that seems to be priced in the "full feature" price ran
Once more!
Man, this is like a tennis match! O.K. The word is in--and this time it's
from Paul Clinton, Service Manager at Ten-Tec. The 418 amp WILL do QSK!
Whew! Now I feel better! Kind of strange, though, that they don't make
that absolutely clear in their brochure.
