Bill, Check the SPKR setting in config menu. Set it to 1 if using only the internal speaker. If using a pair of speakers plugged into the rear speaker jack, set it for 2. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/15/2016 2:46 PM, Bill OMara via Elecraft wrote: I have a new to me, Used K3 that looks to have a

[Elecraft] Strange behavior of P3

My P3 shows some strange behavior when combined with a K33 (newest firmware on K3S and P3): 1. When the subreceiver is turned on in LSB mode (listening to a qso on the low bands) and VFO B cursor is also on, the cursor VFO B changes from LSB to USB, if the mode of the main receiver is changed

Re: [Elecraft] 75 ohm cable on Buffered I.F. Output?

No. What will matter is the quality of the connectors. The 1st IF output from the K3 is low level, the P3 is basically a fairly sensitive HF receiver, and bad connectors can create all sorts of problems. You didn't give a S/N range for your K3, but there is a simple mod [destroy one surface

Re: [Elecraft] P3/SVGA help..

There are LEDs on the P3 front panel and on the SVGA board, both should be blinking. If you plug a keyboard or USB thumbdrive into the SVGA board, you should see another LED light up on the SVGA board. The next thing to try is a parameter reset on the P3. Do that holding down the MENU key and

Hi Paul, many thanks for Your info. It seems to me, the P3 under certain conditions displaying an USB cursor if the subreceiver is switched to LSB (Problem #1) is also a bug in the firmware ? 73, Martin Paul Saffren N6HZ schrieb: Hi Martin, Problem #2 is a bug in the P3 firmware. With

Re: [Elecraft] Strange behavior of P3

Re: [Elecraft] 10 MHz Reference Oscillator

BG7TBL also makes a matching 8 output sinewave distribution amplifier. It also contains another Morion 10 MHz OCXO which switches in automatically if the 10 MHz input to the distribution amp is not there. You can usually get a good deal on the GPS reference and the distribution amp together on
