I'm running these and they are reading the right frequencies, logging the contacts, waterfall looks good on the P3 and the waterfall in Fldigi, it is decoding correctly, but it is not transmitting... I do have the combo working well with N1MM+, but it is not transmitting with the N3FJP. I'm using

Jim I do not see the macros in your post, but you first have to assign the macros to the buttons, and then activate then by using the SWT/SWH commands listed in the K3 Programmers Reference. It is a two step process. 73, Don W3FPR On 6/2/2017 3:16 PM, jlbates4 wrote: I need some help under

Can't answer your question directly Bruce, but if there are ham experiments going on with the eclipsethat need to pass modest-sized messages, they might be able to travel via NTS and provide a little "real" traffic for those of us who still frequent that anachronism. 73, Fred ("Skip") K6DGW S

Jim, I do not see an asterisk key on the K3S. There is the SPOT (also "." [hold]) key that you should be using for auto-spot. The top labels on the buttons are the tap functions. The lower labels are the HOLD functions. You set CWT on by a tap on the CWT button. The display should then show

[Elecraft] K3S auto spot question

2017-06-02 Thread Jim Kutsch
I'm still learning my new K3S and haven't yet figured out CW auto spot. I have auto spot turned on (tap of the 0 key) and activate auto spot by a tap of the * key while listening to a strong CW signal. Based on my experience with KX3 auto spot, I would expect the VFO frequency to be automatically a

M0MKA does have his source on github which kind of implies it's open source. Elsewhere he says his code is available for non-commercial use. So there is a bit of a contradiction going on. Nonetheless, Risen is clearly using his interface design. The Chinese view the world a little differently

If you are using Line Out with a fixed gain setting to feed audio to WSJT-X, adjusting the AF control will not do anything. What I do is leave my RF gain control at its normal position (around 3 o'clock) and use the slider at the lower left in the WSJT-X window to compensate for gain variations. 7

Bret, You may have better luck with running the RF Gain full and adjusting with the AF gain. That way the RX AGC will smooth out variations in the signal level. 73, Don W3FPR On 6/2/2017 9:09 AM, MaverickNH wrote: OK - on WSJT-X working well. MIC Gain adjusted to 4bbars and 5th flickering.
