Re: [Elecraft] K3/P3 and Pigknob

Hello Nick, I actually hadn't considered controlling the P3 with the knob, but that does open up some interesting possibilities. I look forward to experimenting with the options. Thanks for your quick response. 73 Bill K6IFF -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble

Hi Bill, I know of a few folks using the knob with both the P3 and K3. The only issue I'm aware of is if you want to program a P3 macro into one of the programmable knob push buttons you have to prefix the command with a semi-colon. For example, if you wanted to send the P3 command to set the spa

Great input, Fred. I placed an order. The "issues" that I had concern about were mostly if the PN would have any impact on the P3 performance. I'm absolutely addicted to the P3, and any problems there would be a deal-breaker. My K3 and P3 are on a shelf so that both are at eye-level, while the k

Thanks to all who responded. For those who want to know: Connect the K3 to your Logging-Software. Run a Virtual Serial Ports Emulator like the one from eterlogic.com. Create a Splitter for the K3's real ComPort to split it to a virtual ComPort COM1 (real) => COM10 (virtual). Create a Tcpserv

Not sure what you mean by issues. If you're referring to problems making it work, I had none [K3/P3/KPA500/KAT500]. The back of my radio "rack" gives new meaning to the term "wireless," so the extra wires associated with the little PK interface board blended right in. :-) I was a bit overwhe

I'm getting a fairly loud buzz, almost an arcing sound coming from the K3/100 on key down on CW, just some bands, 15m for instance. I'm wondering if I have a ferrite bead vibrating somewhere. I have had the transceiver now for some years and have never heard it before. Has anyone else found this?
