I received a KUSB from Elecraft today. I am trying to download the driver from the FTDI website. The Windows x86 32 bit version will not download. I am getting a network error. It is only a 1,322 KB file. Can I get the driver anywhere else? Thank you. Dave, N4QS __

Re: [Elecraft] K3 APF Effectiveness

2010-11-20 Thread Dave Perry N4QS
I agree that the signal doesn't pop out anymore with 4.22, but I think it is due to the change to 5 Hz tuning. It is harder to hear the peak in the signal with the 5 Hz steps in the Shift tuning. I think we should go back to 10 Hz per click. Just my opinion. Dave, N4QS - Original Messa

Guy, I solved the audio problem. Speakers had somehow been set to 1. Turned it back to 2. But WMTR parameter is totally missing. So I guess I will try reverting back to 4.14. Dave - Original Message - From: "Guy Olinger K2AV" To: "Dave Perry N4QS" Sent: T

I am seeing the same reduction in SSB output power. I installed 4.17 Beta last night. It appears that the reduced power only occurs when I have APF activated. I have twice restored SSB power by doing the following: 1). Changing mode back to CW, 2). Going to Dual PB in Config menu and turning

Re: [Elecraft] RIT?

2010-09-30 Thread Dave Perry N4QS
Tommy, I tried my RIT and I agree that the VFO A frequency appears to move as you turn the RIT knob. But if you transmit, the VFO A frequency reverts back to the original frequency. I suppose it might be better to keep the VFO A frequency the same and only show the offset +/- setting for RIT

Ken, I use DX4WIN with my K3 and I notice the same issue. I do not use PSK31 very often and when I do I have the change the mode manually within DX4WIN. This is more than likely a DX4WIN issue with the rig control file for the K3. The software is probably not recognizing the Data A or Data D

To all, Received my P3 last week and love it. Just one small issue. There is a very soft but noticeable clicking sound when I am using the P3/K3 on the low bands -- 80 and 160M. The click repeats itself about every 7 or 8 seconds. Sounds like a relay within the P3. I only hear it on those

My K3 (SN 3132) has been working happily in sync with DX4WIN and N1MM for over a year now. Normally, when I double click on a spot within the DX spot window of DX4WIN, the K3 immediately changes to the correct spot frequency and mode. Same goes with N1MM. Just a few days ago I noticed that th
