[Elecraft] [KX3] SWR/RF Display Switching to CMP/ALC

2013-12-22 Thread Gary Hawkins
I use my KX3 almost exclusively for SOTA. I keep inadvertently managing to get the display to switch from SWR/RF to CMP/ALC and can't find a quick way to switch it back. This occurs not just when adjusting Mic gain or CMP, although I do switch power levels sometimes. Initially I thought

Hi Dave, Thanks for your response and, yes, this information is on page 15 of the C2 manual as well. However, this tells you how the CMP/ALC display mode gets activated. The problem I'm having is switching it back to SWR/RF. You should be able to do this by tapping the Keyer/Mic knob and

Gary, Early KX3s had nuts on the encoder shafts which made the switch action intermittent at times because the nuts interfered with full travel when the knob was tapped. So check for nuts on your encoder shafts - if present, remove them - they are not needed. 73, Don W3FPR On 12/22/2013

No idea where to get those replacements. What I did with my earpads is cover the pads with the soft protection clothing that Heill provides for their earpads. Not a 100% fit but 98% is just fine. 73 Arie PA3A Roy Koeppe schreef op 22-12-2013 10:49: ...I ask the same question: Has anyone

Gary, It seems that that is one adapter that 'does it right'. Many do not and connect the ring of the stereo plug to the sleeve when a mono jack is inserted, thus grounding the right channel. That is typical of the 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch adapters. 73, Don W3FPR On 12/22/2013 10:17 PM, Gary
