I second /Macrium Reflect/. They offer both a free version (with
limited options), as well as 'paid' versions. I use it with Win10, but
don't know if it is available for other OS.

Don,
I've done the bridge null adjustment several times. The red c55 trimmer
capacitor is very touchy. Using a ceramic screwdriver, I'm able to get the
reading in the 7 to 10 range, but after a few moments, or hours, it will read
30 and sometimes up to 90 at 7100KHz into a dummy load on 5w requ
Mark,
That is not abnormal.
It is normal for the current required for one band to be a bit different
than for other bands, and yours is not out of line. Yes, the KAT2 draws
a bit more current than without it - that is true for any option.
Move the CAL CUR setting up to 3.50 Amps.

Hi all,
If you're planning to be at Pacificon, please join Doug Hendricks (KI6DS),
myself, and a gathering of NorCal QRP alumnus on Friday night at 7 PM in the

radio that helped get the club off the ground. (Even if
I run Windows 10 and Linux Mint. I back up data daily to a USB-3 fast

clone the drive to a spare drive. Then I use the cloned TO drive and
place the cloned FROM drive in my safe. I have three drives rotating

Before Eric ends the thread ;) I'll mention Backblaze. It works in the
background and backs up to the cloud. And for one PC or Mac it's not
expensive. And it stays out of your way and doesn't hurt performance.
Other than that... keep your data organized so that it is easy to copy
everything that m
Don,
Thanks for the info.

Hi Don,
I finally got some time to check your suggestions. D18 is oriented properly,
and it looks like C84 & C85 are marked 121 (kind of hard to read since they are
installed). So I thought I would check voltages for the PLL Reference
Oscillator circuit. Didn’t take long to find 7.5 volts going
The fundamental problem with a question like this is that there may be as many

Don,
The voltage is likely coming through RP2 and making its way through
L31. That is not the problem.
If you want to verify that it is that path, read it while rotating the
VFO through a 10 or 12 kHz range. It should vary.
When the crystal oscillates, you should obtain a frequency at TP3.

Sounds like you have set FSK-D and need AFSK.

IF you are using the USB connection to the computer, you need to either switch
to the RS 232 port and use that; OR take the cover off the K3 and move the
little slide switch on the KIO3B board to the opposite position. You can then
use the USB method. After you have re-installed the firmware
Many thanks for all the replies. K8ZTT had the correct answer and I am now
