[Elecraft] K3 in SS SSB

2009-11-23 Thread K5WA
I really don't like getting on SSB but the K3 makes it tolerable. Both K3s gave me 1850 QSOs in 79 ARRL Sections (missed NL, darn it). The new implementation of the Notch was VERY nice. Sunday afternoon draws lots of carriers from QRMers and the notch just wiped them off the map with a quick

Hi, If you are running a frequency, why don't to put the rig in split mode and lock the B VFO instead of using the RIT? AB2TC Knut K5WA wrote: I really don't like getting on SSB but the K3 makes it tolerable. snip Rather than adjust the filter width or skirts on each contact, I found

Knut, That won't work because it doesn't allow N1MM's {CLEARRIT} feature to resent the RX back to zero as each contact gets logged. Some guys actually call on frequency too! ;-) I may look at using an Elecraft MACRO and a call from N1MM to accomplish the same thing with bigger knobs though.

In the Tools menu dropdown from the main logging window, tick the box that says Reset Rx freq when running split. This doesn't appear to be sticky; you'll have to select it each time you start the program. Works great. 73... Randy, W8FN

I really don't like SSB and am not sure I've gotten my settings correct, but I plowed through 1890 QSOs in 24 hours during the ARRL SSB Sweepstakes last weekend. I really enjoyed using the bandpass filters when I had 60 over 9 signal 1-2 KHz away from me. It allowed me to work guys I would have
