Hello Group,
The following pre-made NUE-PSK modem cables are surplus to my requirements:
1 x Type 10 for K3;
1 x Type 23 for KX3
The cables were used a few times and in excellent condition. Price is USD 12
per cable including shipping to major cities of the world by airmail. If
interest
The Heil Proset!
I bought one, ridiculous price for poor quality!
This is the only headset that has ever broken on me. The horrible very poor
quality Mic. plug was intermittent from day one, I replaced it.
I now use the Yamaha CM500, far superior in every respect.

Great idea Joe,
I downloaded the free CutePDF and Cute Writer program at

and then went to the link you sent and did a Print to CutePDF and now have a

I noticed during a recent CW contest that my computer-generated CW was not QSK
(key jack in the rear) but the internal CW Keyer (paddle) was. I have the rig
set for QSK. I could swear that in previous contests the QSK was consistent.
I must be missing something?

Anybody else having issues with non-linear oscillator changes around 40C?
I've done the extended temp calibration 3 times (each time takes about 2
hours), and someplace between 38C and 42C the calibration goes crazy. Up
to that point as the temperature gradually increases the tone shifts lower.
You probably have your contest program set up to assert PTT. There will
be a connection from the computer to the PTT jack on the rig (K3?).
Either unplug it or tell your contest program not to assert PTT.

I noticed something similar last night when doing
this. I've not operated since so I don't have any
experience with the result.
At temp of 45 deg or thereabouts the tone started
back up. But it didn't rapidly shift or do
anything bizarre, just increased slowly as the

Glad to know I wasn't the only one. In my case the issue around 38 to 42C
is a big deal because that is where the PA sits when running JT65. So it
makes that mode unusable. If the odd break didn't happen until 52C I'd be
all set. And it was definitely hopping all over the place (sometimes

Mine didn't do anything so "wavering" as yours and
it changed at a higher temp. So I wouldn't expect
to see much effect while operating, since it was
at high temps, above 42C.
My concern is if the calibration is off. If it was
a simple linear fit then it could be. If a table

Also -- I haven't done any digital/data modes with
my KX3 as yet, and may not (have a K2/100 and a
K3/100 which may be more favorable for that than a
barefoot KX3). However, I do have a SignaLink USB
with cables for the KX3 so I may eventually use it
that way portable if the opportunity arises
This isn't a problem with the KX3's SWR detection circuitry. If it is
detecting a high SWR, it's because the KX3 is producing RF output before
the t/r relay has closed and the relay is hot-switching. The SWR
detection is doing its job and protecting the KX3 and the amplifier!
The solution is e
I second the request to add TX delay to KX3. Now that delay is < 5 mS. I
found that by seeing hot switching with Expert 2k-fa equipped with vacuum
relays.

Sorry, I do not have an older K1 manual. If anyone has a pdf copy, I

I can tell you how I set the TS offset on these older K1s, but it does

will do) to pr

I am attempting to help a ham friend with his KX3 (s/n 631) which has a low

experience as a concern. So far as I can tell the

Roger,
That sounds like you might have a bad KXUSB cable.
You may have 2 of them, one which came with the KX3 and another that
came with the KXPA100.
Try both of them on the KX3 alone. If it works there, then introduce
the KXPA100 to the same cable.
Do not change USB jacks - often the operatin

Check the baudrate. The KX3 used a lower baud rate. The KXPA100 connection

Correction Bob,
The KX3 is capable of up to 38400 baud rate. Check the KX3 RS232 menu
parameter.
Yes, it defaults to 4800, but for firmware downloads, it is
automatically set to 38400.
Set it to whatever your control application is using.
