[Elecraft] K3 - CW VOX configuration possibility?

2014-03-10 Thread Bill Davis
    I'm curious if anyone has an idea if/how the VOX function could be automatically DISABLED when using JUST the TRANSVERTER bands? I use my K3/10 with transverters for 50MHz-10GHz. When using the transverters,  I must NOT use VOX because this would bypass the TX sequencer which could cause maj

Hi Don - I believe you are wrong here in stating that the delay of RF output after keying is fixed in the K3. Here is an excerpt of the notes from Wayne for the MCU 1.87, DSP 1.69 firmware update: ... "* VARIABLE AMP KEYING DELAY: Added CONFIG:TX DLY menu entry, which sets the time from KE

Joe Subich, W4TV napsal(a): They only suggestion I would make for the firmware is to force CW VOX ON while in SSB mode if "Auto CW" is enabled. I generally prefer PTT mode for both CW and SSB but it would be handy to override CW PTT if Auto CW was enabled. Joe, THAT´S IT! Instead of lon

Actually, I think RF output delay was introduced in MCU 1.87 / DSP 1.69, controlled by CONFIG:TX DLY (8-20ms). Bob NW8L On Sun, Jun 8, 2008 at 7:31 PM, Don Wilhelm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Lexa, > > I believe you are mis-interpreting What QSK DELAY does. It does *not* > increase the time bef

Lexa, I believe you are mis-interpreting What QSK DELAY does. It does *not* increase the time before the onset of RF, but it does change the delay after a keyup condition. The purpose of QSK DELAY is to keep the amplifier relays held in between code elements so one does not have to listen t

Hello Mike, thanks to this "problem" I am totally confused now :-( Mentioned problem is maybe permanent in all previous versions, tried 1.88 now and have the same results. If SSB+CW active there is all the time RF out in SSB mode even if CW mode is in PTT or VOX. The difference is that if

Mike, you are right... When you have SSB + CW active (menu:CW WGHT press "1") there is now no conncetion between PTT/VOX mode for CW and CW sending in SSB mode. (as it was in previous versions as I remember) My previous messages concerning this was based on previous experience and only very sho

Hi again, Dick: Bet you didn't think of this... If you want to operate ssb with a foot switch PTT and have CW available at the touch of a key, leave the K3 in VOX mode, lower the vox gain so that vox does not operate (if you use the foot switch, you don't need any VOX gain), then if you want

I keyed my K3 several times into an open connector before I noticed the "HIGH SWR" warning! I really hate it when that happens. Funny, I had made sure VOX was off and there was no external PTT before I started warming up the fist on the paddles. And yes, the PTT setting in the config menu is OFF-OF
