[Elecraft] K3 and Y-cable E980190

2014-08-02 Thread Jukka Kulha
Hi all, Can someone confirm if the K3 Y-cable/E980190 is similar as standard VGA y-adapter ( e.g. in below link) or is there some differences from wiring point of view? http://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-Monitor-Splitter-Foot/dp/B005H3I38G 73 de Jukka - OH2MA

It is often not the same. What is required is all 15 pins wired straight thru. Many SVGA cables and some Ys are not wired this way. I have several of the wrong kind here, bought in expensively... 73 de Dick, K6KR On Aug 2, 2014, at 8:34, Jukka Kulha jukka.ku...@phnet.fi wrote: Hi all,

There was much discussion about this when the tuner and amp came out. Many of the standard via cables have several pins wired together and will not work. I wired a couple on connectors in parallel in the output side of my hb RTTY interface. Helps reduce cable clutter. On Aug 2, 2014 10:34 AM,

Hi Joe et all, Thanks for all of the answers! Its clear now; there is Y-splitters which are not OK for K3 usage as all 15pins should be wired 1:1, and this not the case with all VGA Y-splitters. Good thing is that there is also available those which are OK, but should be checked first that
