First, I have SignaLink and microHAM as interfaces between rig and computer. I like microHAM because it also reads the rig mode and frequency without needing a second USB port. (I also have older microHAM units that need a separate sound card port) I patch direct (now) with my KX3 to the laptop.

Hi All, Just wondered if anyone had a spare top cover for a K2 complete with all the fittings that they may have spare after building and installing a KPA100. I have installed my KPA100 and KAT100 into a EC2 enclosure and need a complete cover to finish the project. The original top cover

I recently downloaded FLdigi 3.21.72 to my XP32 computer and have my K3/10 set up using the external emu0202 USB soundcard I bought originally to go with my LP-Pan panadaptor (SDR). The emu has manual level controls which makes set up changes easy when going between different sw. I also have

I live in a small suburban lot, 65 x 125 +/- and have used simple vertical antennas remotely tuned for years, several variations. My main operating consists of casual DXing, contesting, and a lot of Emcomm operating. I settled on this type of antenna because on my sailboat I have used a remotely

I was using the computer sound card temporarily for PSK31 and then JT65. I bought a quality sound card emu 0204 for use with LP-PAN. I hooked it up to try it for digital modes and the results were significant for weak signals. I could dig 3-6 db further into the mud for weak signals with the

Javier - I have some thoughts on this matter, but not a LOT of answers. I see that you got a response from someone telling you about their vertical (not like yours), and the MFJ tuner (not the KAT500). What he said about putting the tuner at the antenna makes a lot of sense, but I tried the MFJ

I've been working very slowly on a KAT2, and everything was going well and checking out correctly. All the relays are working, and I finally arrived at the C55 Bridge Null Adjustment step. When I put the K2 into TUNE, I got a Hi Curr on the panel, and no output power. Not only that, but an

The fact that the tuner may run longer to find a match on some frequencies means nothing. If it finds a match, the match is as good as if it found it instantly and there are no higher losses in the tuner and antenna system associated with the longer search times. Also remember when trying the

Tyler, Your results are unusual. Remove the KAT2. Does the base K2 still work OK? If not, something has happened in the meantime. It would seem that you do not have a good path between the K2 and the antenna (or perhaps a short to ground). Check the KAT2 carefully for solder bridges.

Coincidentally, there will be a new release of KX3 firmware next week (beta) with the CW-in-SSB-mode feature working. Also managed to get in another minor improvement, to APF, where the status of 1-Hz tuning is preserved when APF is turned on/off. 73, Wayne N6KR On Jul 27, 2013, at 12:00 PM,
