[Elecraft] TX Inhibit options

2011-06-29 Thread Roger Banks
Hi All. I am using a K3 with internal 144 transverter module. On 2m I use a sequencer for TX/RX as I use a PA and a LNA at the masthead. The rig TX is triggered by the sequencer by using the PTT In line. The sequencer ensures the rig is switched after the LNA. The sequencer is triggered either by

Ok Roger - thanks for the input. TX-DLY is an option I suppose but that means the sequencer will not be sequencing in the right order. ( I dont know if that is an issue or not). The sequencer has to switch the LNA first then switches the PA and K3 over together to tx. TXDLY. If I use TXD then they

Seems to me this -could- be done, but would require some modifications to your sequencer system. Using the TX INH input (pin 7 or AUX connector on the K3, set TX INH to ON). You would need an output from your sequencer that stays low until TX permission is desired. This operation would be

Thanks Bruce. The sequencer is an SSB DCW2004 B. It does not seem to have a state-change output from rx to tx. It has inputs to earth or high to trigger the sequence and then delay outputs to sequence the devices. So I am note sure that would work.. Roger -- View this message in context:

Roger, You would add your own output that would stay low until the sequencer out for triggering the PTT on the rig is active. This output would also only inhibit the rig when on 2M (a requirement you mentioned), by monitoring the band data outputs of the radio. You would have to build this logic
